The Magic of David Bowie

[conorh98]

From NME:
 David Bowie joins Michael Caine in new movie
 They play competing magicians
 David Bowie is to star in a new movie with Michael Caine.
 
 'The Prestige' follows the story of two competing magicians, reports Reuters.
 
 The 58-year-old rock legend will play inventor and electrical wizard Nikola Tesla, who is asked by one of the magicians to help him pull off the ultimate magic trick.
 
 Caine plays a veteran magician in the Christopher Nolan-directed movie, which also co-stars Hugh Jackson and Christian Bale.
 
 The movie, adapted from Christopher Priest's novel, adapted by the director's brother Jonathan Nolan, will begin shooting in January.
 
 Bowie's acting credits range from 1976's 'The Man Who Fell To Earth' to 1983's 'Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence', 1996's 'Basquiat' and, most recently, 2000's 'Mr Rice's Secret'.

With Christopher Nolan at the helm, this should be interesting.

Christopher Nolan?...best indie movie ever?..."Momento"!!!

Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence is one of the greatest, best acted and 'soundtracked' (word?) of all time.

...Based upon the book by Christopher Priest, who also wrote INVERTED WORLD.

[Frank Gallagher]

...which is also a good book, although totally different from the film

Laurens Van Der Post.....he wrote the book Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence, sorry, I thought you were talking about that book, and I had just forgotten the authors name.

So did you see any Pucaras or Daggers, then?
