Plastic cards! Run away!
Plastic cards aren’t good material for this effect. The gimmick sticks out like a sore thumb against the rest of the deck, and the chosen care pops up like a greased pig the second you let up your hand pressure, even if it’s only a little bit. I will probably dismantle this to see if I can replicate the gimmick with a good old deck of paper Bikes, but I’ll never show anyone the trick with this dud.

Another Standard-Setter from Criterion
Criterion has digitally restored a nice-looking print of the film and the color has been beautifully timed. As adaptations of “unfilmable” modernist novels go, this is one of the better ones; it doesn’t hurt to have a Harold Pinter screenplay in such an instance. Different from the novel in that, while Fowles’s TFLW deconstructs “the Victorian novel,“ Reisz’s film deconstructs “the film adaption of the Victorian novel,” and does so in unique ways rather than attempting to transcribe Fowles’s strategies of deconstruction. (Reisz, by the way, was a leading director of the British New Wave, infusing the emerging “angry young man” genre of British lit and drama with an appropriately Neo-realist flavor.) Not a complete success, but eminently worth watching. Streep and Irons are both excellent, though Streep’s subtle gestures and mannerisms alone practically steal the show.
