Christopher Nolan’s The Prestige Has His Darkest Ending

The film The Prestige tells the story of two magicians, Robert Angier and Alfred Borden, during the Victorian era. What begins as a close friendship devolves into a bitter and obsessive rivalry. As they compete to create more spectacular illusions, both men become consumed by their craft, ultimately leading to a tragic and dark conclusion, typical of director Christopher Nolan’s style.
