The Prestige by Christopher Nolan

Christopher Nolan has created an entertaining and unforeseeable story that's based on illusion, magic, science, plots, twists, love, and sacrifice.

The story in The Prestige is spun around two rivaling illusionists (or magicians - there's a subtle difference) in turn-of-the-century London. There's a battle going on between the artists for the audience and - perhaps even more important - there's a fierce fight over who's got the best trick, making each illusionist perform more and more complex and dangerous illusions. Or simply stealing and improving existing ones.

Definitely a story I want to experience again, preferably on a big screen.

Mhmm så den var bra alltså. Vi hade ju barnvakt i lördags och stod och funderade på att se "Prestige" på bio... sen lutade det åt Little Miss Sunshine. DEt hela slutade utan film; vi bowlade istället och gick och åt grekiskt. Också najz!
