will need to see it again, good but maybe too much detail,
the only part which confused me, was the death of the blonde in the water tank, did the man deliberately tie her hands to kill her?

He tied a knot that was not so easy to slip..........hence she didn't manage to do it in time (despite her having colluded with him in using it).

The 'other' chap then blamed him for using this knot and thus set up the 'revenge' plot.
I thought it was the fact that it was the 'duplicate' Borden that tied the knot, thereby meaning that everyone was unaware of the knot used. This was alluded to in the funeral scene where Angier asks Borden what type of knot he used, to which he replied he didn't know. This would make sense if the dupe had tied it, the other Borden wouldn't have had prior knowledge of which knot was used, or not!

If you watch it again everything starts to fall into place a bit more. I love this film.
