Bright, sunny lighting sets a happy or cheerful mood or feeling, while darker, blue colours make a sad or evil feel and is normally used when a villain or antagonist. In The Dark Knight dark colours and lighting are used when Batman is on set which

The Dark Knight directed by Christopher Nolan plays around the theme heroism in which the characters take roles of being the hero in their own distinct ways. Some continue to play the hero because of their morals and good character. Others become deemed to evil due to the horrible experiences they face. In the film The Dark Night, Batman takes the primary role of the hero because he continuously strives to achieve the well being of the city, while the joker chooses to cause havoc among the people of Arkham city.

The Dark Knight Rises is a heroic movie. The movie entitles itself as an adventurous movie and is a part of a sequel. In the midst of Harvey Dent death, the Dent Act has granted the Gotham Police Department to give powers to remove planned crimes. Although, James Gordon was a part of the midst, his guilt has taken over. He writes a resignation letter telling the truth in detail about what happened. Bruce became the one to take the blame for Dents death and retires as Batman. The death of Racheal had taken a toll on him and he becomes isolated from society and within his own home.

Writer-director, Christopher Nolan, can produce upbeat action and thrillers, as his top-tier blockbusters Batman Begins and The Dark Knight graciously demonstrates. But he’s a genius nevertheless, leading an audience into a principled and logical fantasy, providing us all we require to decide our own verdicts and decisions while hiding his own point of view in moments where we expect the unexpected.

Lighting as we know, creates the atmosphere for the setting, it establishes the overall tone for what the audience sees. Lighting is key in filming, as it can change tones from scene to scene to create a certain subliminal meaning. For instance the contrasting light from character to character to allow the viewer to understand the differences. Throughout the movie “The Dark Knight” we are able to see how the lighting allows for the directors subliminal meaning to seek through; darkness within. As the name of the movie suggests “Dark Knight” the movies overall tone is set in the darkness. This dark atmosphere allows for an eerie feeling, tension to build up and an anxiety feeling for the viewer.

A literary convention is a specific pattern like a repetition of a word, phrase, character, or setting. They are recurring patterns in particular literary genres and are present in many novels, short stories, plays, and sonnets. There are many different literary conventions or tropes in the stories that we have read, but I am choosing to write about the film The Dark Knight by Christopher Nolan. There are also many within the film, but the one that stuck out most to me was Jokers famous saying, “why so serious?”. When he says this his tone of voice is almost angry, or he may even sound mentally insane. There are two stories from where The Joker says that the saying “why so serious” originates from. The most notable one is that his father was a drunk and killed his mother. Then his father asks him “why so serious”, and decides he should have a smile, so he put a knife in his mouth and cut his face from ear to ear. This phrase and the way that he says it ends up making people of Gotham more scared then they maybe normally would be. The phrase could also mean that order will never be contained, that somehow someway chaos will always rise. I think that by the different stories about his scar, his actions throughout the film, and by his famous “why so serious?” phrase, Joker is a psychopath who is mentally deranged, yet maybe not insane, and somehow he is very intelligent. The phrase is something that occurs very frequently in the movie. It has also become a very popular saying

When I was eleven years old, I perused through the video store looking for the perfect movie to watch.

Batman: The Dark Knight directed by Christopher Nolan is non-stop action thriller that continually did the unexpected.

The artistic representation of the Batman myth is an important cultural artifact of our time because it represents modern society's thirst for heroic ideals in popular entertainment. Since his creation, readers and viewers have admired Batman's unique ability to battle villainy, transcend the law and administer justice.

"The Dark Knight" is grimly magisterial. It's a summer blockbuster that contemplates near-total civic disaster: Crowds surge, tractor-trailers flip, and buildings explode, but the pop violence feels heavy, mournful. Light barely escapes the film's gravitational pull.
