Magic Elevator Trick in "KISS ME DEADLY" (1955) (video)




In Robert Aldrich's classic adaptation of the hardboiled Mickey Spillane novel...

...P.I. Mike Hammer (Ralph Meeker) and his friend Lt. Pat Murphy (Wesley Addy) walk down a hallway toward the elevator.

Mike pushes the button. They wait for it to arrive, looking up to check the floor indicator.

The door slides open, two passengers step off, and Mike and Pat get in.

Except...there's no elevator. That's the "Magic Elevator" trick.


I neither own nor claim any rights to this material.  Just having some fun with it.  Thanks for watching!
