Watching 'The Prestige' reminds me of David Copperfied. I remember that I didn't like to watch magic shows other than DC's when I was small. He made other magicians' tricks looked cheap. I can still remember him walking through the Great Wall of China; making the Statue of Liberty disappear; escape from a chained raft while being hung above Niagara Falls. Sometimes he liked to make the audience think that he failed, but suddenly appeared from the other end. That was the prestige, and he is the master of it.
Anybody knows how he did all these? Did he used a double? owned a Tesla machine or a teleporter? May be the one who was being chained to the raft was his double. More interestingly, I wonder if he lives a life like Angier or Borden; constantly looking for new tricks; worry about others trying to steal his tricks; keeping secrets from others...
Perhaps only DC knows...
