A young American falls hard for a Romanian cellist whose father has recently died -- and whose violent past could bring about his own demise.

What's left behind the scenes

  • At an early stage of the film's creation, Shia LaBeouf left the project, and during this period his role was offered to Zac Efron, but LaBeouf eventually returned.
  • In one of the dialogues between Darko and Charlie, Darko mentions the James Bond films. Mads Mikkelsen played the villain in the movie "Casino Royale" (2006).
  • In one of the dialogues, Darko mentions James Bond films to Charlie. Mads Mikkelsen played the villain in "Casino Royale" (2006).
  • During filming, Shia LaBeouf actually took LSD to make the corresponding scene in the film look more natural.
  • When Charlie Countryman (Shia LaBeouf) is riding from the airport, the taxi driver jokingly calls him Robert Redford. Much later, in a scene in pre-dawn Bucharest following trouble at a nightclub, Rupert Grint's character asks Charlie if he has found himself in a situation similar to the events of the movie "Three Days of the Condor" (1975). This is because Robert Redford played the lead role in that film. Furthermore, prior to "The Illusionist," Shia LaBeouf starred in the thriller "The Company Men" (2012), which was directed by and starred the same Robert Redford.
