Spellbound--with the generically suave illusionism of Mark Kalin and Jinger Leigh--also features an impressive trio of slow-motion acrobats called Human Design. The Tropicana's Folies-Bergere revue, freshened regularly since 1959, has a nicely erotic trapeze duo, the Cavarettas, a merger of Ringling Bros. with TV's Red Shoe Diaries...

Instead, in a chiaroscuro cinema style that suggests morgue photos taken by Cecil Beaton, he presents the pair as stars of their own camp pageant, a sickly sweet deb ball, where the revelers dance all night on the bodies...
