Episode 109 - The Prestige - a podcast by Movie Podcast

Are you listening closely?

Join your favourite TransAtlantic podcasting crew – Ian, Liam, and Ethan (We made Georgia disappear in the Turn) as we're heading to London and Colorado Springs in the industrial era magic rivalry, The Prestige, brought to us by Ethan.  We're saying abracadabra in our 109th episode as we discuss:

• The labour of love that the script for this film was


• We discuss our general feelings towards Christopher Nolan


• We decide to review while avoiding the big idea of the film until the end


• Which actor claimed they changed their voice and posture in order to play this part


• What are our own histories with magic?


• A member of the panel reflects the pod has changed the way they emotionally engage with films these days


• Which piece of stunt casting may have felt surprisingly underwhelming


• We're interrupted by a little bit of a tease for future content


• Whether or not The Prestige is the Best Film Ever.
