The Magus is a 1968 British mystery film directed by Guy Green and starring Michael Caine, Anthony Quinn, Candice Bergen and Anna Karina. The screenplay was written by John Fowles based on his 1965 novel of the same name.

Production

Guy Green liked the book but not the script. He worked on the script with Fowles. Green said he disagreed with the producers over interpretation – they wanted more of a thriller, he wanted something more Fellini-like. The director claims Richard Zanuck had just seen Blow Up, which had an abrupt ending, and had them remove the last reel from The Magus. Green felt the film would have been more successful with the original ending.
