The Prestige is a deeply atmospheric film characterized by Victorian-era aesthetics. Pfister utilized natural light, candlelight, and gas lamps to illuminate the dark, smoke-filled theaters and underground workshops of London.
Set in Edwardian London, the story follows two stage magicians, Robert Angier (Hugh Jackman) and Alfred Borden (Christian Bale), whose intense rivalry spirals into a deadly obsession.
