Movie: The Prestige (The Prestige)

Unusual discoveries are not forgiven neither in science, nor in industry.

But society is willing to accept only one transformation. For the first attempt to change the world I was known as a dreamer. After the second attempt I was politely sent to the rest.

Are you watching closely?
And are you watching closely?

- ... Normal aquarium with a volume of 2-2,5 thousand liters...
- Do you think he could move that quietly?
- He's a magician, ask him!

You should know the trick and so simple.

Exact science is not accurate enough, Mr. Angier.

Passion - a lot of the young people. The elderly can not afford to follow you.

Friendship that became a rivalry. The rivalry that turned into enmity.

Where's my mechanic?
[pointing to the grave]
- Is it alive?
- How quickly do you dig?

It takes courage to climb into that machine every night not knowing who will I be - those in the box or the prestige.

He stole my life. I steal his trick.

Every magic trick consists of three parts or acts. The first part is called "bait." The magician shows you the most ordinary item - a deck of cards, a bird or a man. It shows the subject, perhaps even asks to check to make sure that it is real, nefertary, the most common, but of course, it's most likely not. The second act is called "transformation." The magician takes the most ordinary object and makes it do something extraordinary. At this point you start looking for a solution, but not find, because it is not especially trying. You don't want her to know. You want to be cheated, but you do not rush to clap, because making the object disappear - that's not all, it should be returned. That is why the third part of the room - the hardest part, which we call "the prestige".

The public known the truth. The world is very simple, the world is miserable, completely devoid of magic. But being able to fool her for even a second, you'll make her wonder, and then you will be able to see something extraordinary...don't you understand? - it's all in the face

Be very careful giving someone that power over you.
