THE DARK KNIGHT
Special Features: 15th Anniversary
“Why so serious?” Christopher Nolan set the bar high for comic-book superhero movies with this dark, intense and politically resonant action epic, which followed his first Batman film, BATMAN BEGINS. Christian Bale’s Batman faces multiple threats to his efforts to maintain law and order in Gotham City (here relocated to Nolan's native Chicago), but none more dangerous than the anarchic crime spree orchestrated by the murderously insane Joker (Heath Ledger, giving a powerful performance and that posthumously won him a Best Supporting Actor Academy Award®). Michael Caine, Gary Oldman, Morgan Freeman and Maggie Gyllenhaal co-star. DIR/SCR/PROD Christopher Nolan; SCR Jonathan Nolan, from the story by David S. Goyer and characters created by Bob Kane; PROD Charles Roven, Emma Thomas. U.S./UK, 2008, color, 152 min. RATED PG-13
