Citizen Kane Vs. The Prestige
The Prestige is a great movie and it has many similarities and differences to the movie Citizen Kane. The Prestige¡¯s starts up with an eye grabbing scene where a man is murdered after performing an ¡°electrifying¡± magic trick while another man watches him die. This is much like the beginning of Citizen Kane, where a man also dies, but not as exiting as in The Prestige. The beginning of Citizen Kane is more mysterious and dark, while The Prestige is very exiting and more used as an attention grabber. Both Citizen Kane and The Prestige use flashback to tell the story. In The Prestige, Cutter tells most of the beginning stories of Robert and Alfred¡¯s life as magicians to the judge in flashback, while the later flashbacks are Robert and Alfred
