    I was amazed how technical yet simple the illusions were. Nolan captured the times brilliantly with excellent performances from A-listers

    This is one of the best movies ever made and it doesn't get the recognition it deserves even though it's Nolan. In my opinion The Prestige is still the most perfect one of his filmography. Thank you for this video.

    How do you know this is a good movie?
    The fact that ever after seeing it for the first time and you know how it ends and know all the secrets, it's still rewatchable!!
    I absolutely love this movie. The cast is amazing. The story is incredible and the entire presentation is just spectacular.

    I love your content with one HUGE addendum: the voicework for Nolan is just drudgery. Im sorry, but it truly is the part of your videos I ALWAYS skip.
    The narrator's speaking voice is already FANTASTIC, please stop affecting this bizarre action movie hero voice.

    Andy Serkis is actually Tesla. Bowie is his double, the face for the public. Thinking this, it makes sense that Borden would say that the keyword to his journal is the same as the method of his trick. He uses a double. And if Angier could figure out that Tesla uses a double, he'd figure out Angier's trick. But, Borden knows that Angier will fail in figuring this out because he'd already failed figuring this out earlier in the film. First, Angier never clued into the fact that he was dealing with two Borden's day to day. Second, the orange tree trick. Borden knows that the real trick was that the magician wasn't old and frail. That he was putting on a show in real life to get away with what he was doing on stage. Andy Serkis meets Angier, has a drink with Angier, is present during the "have you considered the cost" conversation and it's Serkis who displays the Tesla machine to the public, saying: "I'm, just the assistant. The real Tesla couldn't make it." Of course, Serkis is the real Tesla and it's no mistake that Borden is in the crowd, smiling. Borden can spot it where Angier can't. The orange tree trick, Tesla and Borden's own trick all use a double. In one case metaphorically and in the other two, literally. The trick that's truly hiding in plain sight is that Serkis is the real Tesla.

    For those asking, it is not Nolan’s best. Unless you consider the complexity of the novel along with being able to pull it off in his own way. Inception is still #1.

    Totally wrong. The Tesla machine worked. Guess you didn't read the book. Please explain the top hats that appeared outside Tesla's laboratory. There were many doubles of Danton that we see as the film ends. He is but a copy of a copy of a copy. He was willing to risk death to achieve the trick but in achieving success he wasn't Danton anymore but a copy. The real Danton no longer existed after the first use of the machine. They weren't dummies in the traps but actual Dantons but they had to die for the trick to work. Loved the explanation of what each of the twins were doing but your conclusion is wrong. Interesting but wrong. Read the book. The Tesla machine worked. Please read the book. It is chilling.

      @@diogeneslantern18 the book is very different from the movie like almost every book to movie. I didn't like the novel but the ending was quite haunting. At least it is a rather short book if u don't like it. It was worth reading to see what a masterful job that Nolan's take was on such a strange novel.

      it isn’t even an original take, just regurgitated from a youtube analysis which speaks nonsense in an authoritative tone. why would angier put a couple of dozen wax sculptures of himself in tanks to be found after borden’s “death?” the video says it was some kind of contingency, but for what? in case borden returned from the dead and needed his mind blown? it’s absurd.

      The top hats were never there. Neither were the duplicate cats nor the duplicate from the test that Angiers supposedly shot. All of that was entirely in the mind of Borden, planted there because Angiers had written it into his journal. Watch it again. Neither of the magicians are reliable narrators of their stories.
