The Prestige conjures up a dark relationship between science and the desire for power. Earlier this month, physicists in Copenhagen announced they had successfully teleported information through a half a meter of space to a large object. The experiment, the first to transport information from light and matter, is said to be a revolutionary step in the field of quantum teleportation. But while it's one thing to teleport atomic data, it's quite another to teleport an entire human being. The Prestige, a new Hollywood thriller, takes up the question of teleportation as one of its central conundrums: Is it feasible? What would people leave behind after teleporting? And could you bring your hat along for the ride? (cont'd on site) |

I think people miss the focus of the movie if the talk is about the teleportation. Instead, it's a movie about jealousy, greed, revenge. The teleportation trick was just a means to an end. Anybody who sees this movie knows how the trick was done, anyway.
