A delightfully oddball film.
A Czech seer is hired by the Paris police to help solve a murder. He does then spends several days frabbing around the city courting a young woman, fending off celebrity and getting involved with another magician in a live burial contest which updates an early christian legend.
This worked because of the enigmatic lead performance. It tickled me all the way through and ended on a sweetly sentimental note.
Great fun.
