Christopher Nolan’s *The Prestige* (2006) is based on Christopher Priest’s novel, first published in 1995. In the film, the rivalry between two illusionists leads one of them to the historical inventor Nikola Tesla, who creates a fantastical device for a stage act. This is a fictional element of the story, not evidence that Tesla actually built a machine for duplicating people. [1–3]
