Now You See It, Now You Don't

Recently, I watched a movie called 'The Prestige', about two competiting magicians (played by Hugh Jackman and Christian Bale) set in 1890's Victorian England.

I enjoyed the movie very much and it showed me how little we really pay attention to things, and how all the details (big and small) can easily be slipped past us.

In anticipation of a longer post on Thursday regarding, 'The Prestige', I leave you with this card trick. Remember, pay attention to all of the details. As the first screen of The Prestige website says, 'Are you watching closely?' I admit, the trick fooled me a few times before I figured it out.
