  FILM

FRI-MON Dealt at The Little Cinema 
One of the most renowned card magicians of all time, Richard Turner astounds audiences around the world with his legendary sleight of hand. What they may not realize - and what makes his achievements even more amazing - is that Turner is completely blind. Charting his life from a tumultuous childhood to the present, Dealt reveals how, through determination and force of will, Turner overcame seemingly insurmountable obstacles to rise to the top of his profession.
