James Randi stopped in at Fantasma Magic Wednesday during a visit to New York for the opening of the movie An Honest Liar, a documentary about his career as a debunker of faith healers, fortune-tellers and psychics. Randi was met at the entrance to Fantasma by the shop's proprietor Roger Dreyer, who gave Randi a guided tour of the items in the store's Houdini Museum. Like Houdini, Randi's career as a performer was focused on escape artistry and he further followed in Houdini's footsteps by later dedicating himself to exposing frauds who made claims of having paranormal abilities.
An Honest Liar opens Friday, March 6 in New York and Los Angeles, before moving to additional cities nationally later in the month. While in New York Randi will participate in Q & A sessions on March 6, 7 and 8 at some of the movie's showings at the Landmark Sunshine Cinema.
