Well, nuts

Here I'm barely over my fit of pique for having missed "The Illusionist," and I already have reason to regret my almost-certain missing of "The Prestige." To wit:

"The Prestige," directed by Christopher Nolan ("Memento," "Batman Begins"), stars Hugh Jackman and Christian Bale as magicians in turn-of-the-century London. The two begin a game of one-upmanship that draws blood -- and worse. Michael Caine, Scarlett Johansson and David Bowie (playing Nikola Tesla) also star.

David Bowie as Tesla. Yes.

We wanted to see the Illusionist and never made it down to the theatre

Bowie as Tesla is pretty awesome tho ;)

Good freaking God--Bowie's in this film? Who the hell knew? I was going to see the movie anyway, but now I have to see it opening weekend. Wow.

Oh, yes, I read about that. I seriously doubt we'll get the film here, but with that cast, lord, do I want to see it!

I loved the book and the film sounds great, especially the cast, but it won't get here until Christmas :(.
