Shutter Island, it was directed by Martin Scorsese and stars Leonardo DiCaprio, it's a psychological thriller set in 1954. I love this film, it's one of my favourites.
Illusionist, the film was written and directed by Neil Burger and stars Edward Norton, it's Set in the turn of the 20th century. I love this film & as i perform magic myself, more close-up magic than illusions, i enjoy the film more. & i have to add most of the magic effects are not CGI, but other illusions like the Orange Tree as seen in the finished film is roughly 1/3 real and 2/3 CGI. Thay had Magic Consultants for the illusions & close-up magic in the film.
The Prestige, it was directed and co-produced by Christopher Nolan staring Christian Bale & Hugh Jackman, set in the 1900's. The films about two stage illusionists engage in a bitter and deadly feud, much like famous rivalries in magic’s history Maskelyne and Keller but more deadly an excellent film & a favourite of mine.
