Admin Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 The Prestige 2006 REMUX 4K Ultra HD 2160p HDR HEVC BLURAY UHD Period thriller set in Edwardian London where two rival magicians, partners until the tragic death of an assistant during a show, feud bitterly after one of them performs the ultimate magic trick - teleportation. His rival tries desperately to uncover the secret of his routine, experimenting with dangerous new science as his quest takes him to the brink of insanity and jeopardises the lives of everyone around the pair. Release date: October 20, 2006 (USA) Director: Christopher Nolan Distributed by: Warner Bros., Warner Bros. Pictures, Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures, Touchstone Pictures, Newmarket Films Adapted from: The Prestige Box office: $109.7 million Music by: David Julyan https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0482571/ Similar to what he did seven years earlier with his neo-noir psychological thriller Memento, Christopher Nolan aims to astound and amaze his audience with a big reveal or unexpected twist at the end. And on the surface of it, The Prestige is little more than a constant build-up towards that goal, which is as satisfyingly effective as it is misleading and dishonest because, in the end, the whole trick is deceptively simple. But as Michael Caine's stage engineer John Cutter explains, that's ultimately the whole point of watching and enjoying a good magic trick. It's a carefully orchestrated deception designed for the sole purpose of entertaining the audience, of bewildering the imagination with wonder and spectacle. We enter the deception of our own accord and, for a moment, voluntarily suspend the rational, skeptical side of our brain, inviting the illusion and daring the magician to swindle us. When understanding this basic logic and the true meaning of Cutter's words, we discover the mystery drama is a wildly innovative love-letter to the magic of cinema itself. In this setup, the screen is the stage, the director is the magician and the film is the illusion. And like any good illusionist – as Cutter and Scarlett Johansson's Olivia point out – the performance is as equally important as the trick itself. The magician should be capable of making the audience let go of reality and be transported to an imaginary world unfamiliar to their own, say, something like 19th Century Victorian London. The talent, then, is in one's ability to cleverly misdirect the audience's gaze, expecting one result but giving them another. Perhaps making them believe a story is told from the perspective of two protagonists, a pair of rivaling stage magicians The Great Danton (Hugh Jackman) and The Professor (Christian Bale), but it's actually from one. In Caine's voiceover introduction, he even breaks it down into three elements, parts or acts where the climax is arguably the most important because we're left astounded and reminded we were duped all along. And when we revisit the trick again, watching with a more critical eye, we may uncover the devil hiding in the details, possibly revealing the trickery employed for deceiving us, but that's okay. If done well, it only makes up appreciate the illusion more.
