Kevin on ‘The Prestige’

It seems my brother liked “The Prestige.” “It’s too bad about the ending – otherwise, the picture is an astutely-observed, periodically thrilling examination on duality and faith. To borrow a phrase from Carl Sagan, it’s a demon-haunted world; we explore it with candles, illuminating a small portion at a time.”

Good review, and an excellent movie. One nitpick though: your brother is playing a bit fast and loose with the historical backdrop, time periods and whatnot. Just sayin’.

Overall, his site is excellent, though. I’ve been clicking around it quite a bit.
