Don't forget your hat, Mr. Angier.
2006 Christopher Nolan
Why is this in the top 100? and above Raging Bull.
Maybe it's because of the cast, names like Andy Serkis and David Bowie and Christian Bale and Hugh Jackson and Scarlett Johansson and Michael Caine. Anyway. It's a story of turn of the century magicians trying to outdo each other on the stage and being the best magician. One of them pays Mr Tesla to make a massive electrical machine that makes things transport, not sure if that was the initial intention but that's what it did. Tesla is played by David Bowie trying very hard to be Tom Waits.
Obviously there is the usual love interest and a bit of a twist at the end. Everybody wears a hat.
Kill a few more budgies.
Complete load of tosh.
