Today, I continue the series, where I share escape scenes from my personal copy of HOUDINI A Screenplay by Vince DiPersio:
- Buried Alive
- COFFIN ESCAPE
- Water Torture Cell Part 1
- Water Torture Cell Part 2
- Belle Isle Bridge
- Walking Thru Brick Wall
This week, I share the Coffin Escape scene:
We see, Collins and Jeffrey at the Hippodrome, where Rahmen Bey is about to perform the coffin escape handcuffed. Collins makes a scene about the cheap handcuffs and ends up slipping his own handcuffs on Rahmen Bey who struggles. Houdini proceeds to the stage and exposes Rahmen Bey’s coffin that is tricked. Houdini then shows everyone how the great Houdini does it.
That is one weird gumbo of a scene.
Lol, it gets even better!
