The Escape Artist
“The remarkable story of an unusual boy who takes on the world...and wins.”
The young and self-confident Danny bluffs at the local police-station that he will escape from prison within an hour. What follows is a flashback showing his childhood with his uncle and aunt, who are 'vaudeville'-artists themselves.
Directed by Caleb Deschanel, Francis Ford Coppola, Fred Roos
