ALL-TIME CLASSIC MOVIE FAVOURITES – NOW YOU SEE ME (2013)

 

“Now You See Me” is a Mystery Crime Thriller, screenplay written by Ed Solomon, Boaz Yakin and Edward Ricourt and Directed by Louis Leterrier.

 

The story begins when four magicians, J. Daniel Atlas (Jesse Eisenberg), Merritt McKinney (Woody Harrelson), Henley Reeves (Isla Fisher) and Jack Wilder (Dave Franco), each answer a mysterious summons, and all arrive at an obscure address where they find hidden secrets.

One year later, they are big time stage illusionists, the Four Horsemen, and they climax their sell-out Las Vegas show by apparently robbing a Paris bank.

When it turns out that the bank actually had been robbed, F.B.I. Agent Dylan Rhodes (Mark Ruffalo) and Interpol Agent Alma Dray (Mélanie Laurent) are assigned to the case to figure out how they did it.

However, the great truth in this puzzle is that the closer you look, the less you see, and deeply embroiled in the mystery for very different reasons are Thaddeus Bradley (Morgan Freeman) Arthur Tressler (Michael Caine) and Agent Fuller (Michael J. Kelly).

TRAFFIC COP – I’M SORRY OFFICER

 “I have to book you” the Officer said

“In the hope that you won’t do it again sir”

“No, it won’t happen again” I said

“As I won’t forget to plug in my radar detector” 

21st CENTURY NURSERY RHYMES # 304

 

There was a Ship sailed away to Spain

All the way there it was lashed with rain

And when they arrived at last in Spain

Where the rain didn’t fall in the main

As Higgins suggested on the plain

MY HUSBAND’S BEHAVIOUR

 

My husband’s behaviour

Is truly appalling

However, it’s my fault really

Which is quite galling

 

If I hadn’t fed him cat food

Just for the laughs

He wouldn’t sit on the carpet

Licking his own arse

ARE YOU WEARING AN UNDERSLIP?

 

Are you wearing an underslip?

Are you really by thunder

Would you like to slip out of it

Or should I just slip under

WEST OF KINTYRE # 2

 

On the Mull of Kintyre

I stood atop the steep cliffs

On a day so crisp and clear

And looked out towards the west

Where it was possible to see

Rathlin Island clear as day

And Ballycastle just beyond

RCN HYMN

 

From the wards of emphysema

To the floors of maternity

We are proud to all be members

Of the nursing fraternity

 

We work for the sake of patients

As keep our hospital clean:

And we fight the daily battles

In blue or white or green
