Gambler's Ballad: The Legend of Johnny Thompson

Post by FlyingPenguin »

Penn and Teller have been plugging this film on their Twitter feed. Premier's tomorrow. It's on Showtime, but it should be available on Amazon and other streaming services after it's released.
Penn and Teller hired Johnny Thompson to consult on their magic show as soon as the duo began their career and Johnny has been with them ever since. "Gambler's Ballad" follows Penn and Johnny's progress as Thompson teaches Penn his signature card act. Numerous well known figures from the magic world reminisce and wax philosophic about the unparalleled knowledge and profound influence Johnny Thompson has had on their own careers as well as the history and current state of the art of magic.
