I finally got it. I started watching the 2006 movie The Prestige
The movie stars Christian Bale, Hugh Jackman, Scarlett Johansson, Michael Caine and David Bowie. The Prestige explores the rivalry between two magicians. There are clues to what’s going on all the way through the movie but it all comes together in the final moments. It’s only once you’ve seen the end that you can understand many of the earlier scenes.
James was up very early today watching the last bit of the movie which he missed last night. I happened to see a few seconds of the movie as he watched and I suddenly had an ‘aha’ moment. It all made sense. The pieces fit perfectly.
I enjoyed the movie last night but there were still some questions in my mind. Now I know exactly what was happening. I’d love to watch it all again right from the beginning with my knew understanding of the plot. What a shame the DVD’s due back today.
There are certainly some darker moments in the movie but if you enjoy some mystery and great acting, check it out.
