The Prestige
i’m so confused who is who. why was cutter on ‘fallons’ side.
it was said at the start but chosen to be ignored. are u watching closely.
i had a feeling fallon could be borden especially when they were sharing sarah and angier’s original assistant but how did he duplicate himself. did he use the same machine and was telling the truth about tesla or was it truly his brother.
but when ‘borden’ was reading the diary in jail and then it revealed angier wrote something it didn’t make sense because when angiers orignal assistant gave him the book it was revealed that borden and the girl were teaming up and the whole diary was a lie and the true secret of the trick was covered up by a fake story of tesla.
but tesla still made the transporting man device and it worked. but when angier tried it for the first time who actually was the real angier because o think the fake one killed him. and in the acts the ‘real’ one goes onto the prestige and the duplicate goes in the water but even that doesn’t make sense
**borden had a twin all along and that’s how he pulled off the transported man.
cutter said in the beginning of the story that borden had a duplicate or double but angier did not believe it and kept pushing for something deeper. therefore cutter grew disgusted with his obsession and all along helped borden be with his daughter (who he promised he would see) and ultimately be happy by leaving magic behind.
when the transported man trick is performed the ‘original man’ gets trapdoored into the tank and the duplicate gets duplicated to the prestige.
the irony is that angiers wife drowned in the tank and so did angier. even though ‘fallon’ went down and tried to help when he didn’t want to make the same mistake as before.
each twin switches places when being with sarah or olivia. that’s why sometimes with sarah borden was aggressive which was his twin brother. and i’m guessing the aggressive twin brother loved olivia and the original likes sarah
