Preposterous ending



So Sophie deliberately provokes a fight with the prince and then is seen riding from the estate appearing injured. Then Eisenheim gives her a death-simulating potion and fakes a severe sword cut on her neck to fool the doctor into thinking she is dead. Later E brings her back from near death.










a terrorist is a man who has a bomb but doesn't have an air force

when exactly does he bring her back?after the necropsy,where they open the dead body,which they did even in those days in cases of murder?or after the burial?
he really must have been one heck of a magician or rather this is one heck of a
dumb film.

reply

LOL you're right. Instead of putting back a woman from two halves, he stitched up a disescted body after autopsy. Now that would be magic.

reply

I've only seen it once so I could be wrong but wasn't the doctor in on it? The way the camera looked at him in the flashbacks at the end seemed suss.

reply

The doctor was actually the guy who were talking to E at the train station. He had a fake beard. He probably wasn't a doctor at all.

reply

The "doctor" was in on it. That's why he told the detectives to stop examining her more closely.
