The Dark Knight
Tuesday, go!, 8.30pm, M (2008)
The late Heath Ledger’s Oscar-winning portrayal of The Joker cemented his place as one of Hollywood’s greats. The Dark Knight sees Gotham’s rising superhero (Christian Bale) making progress in his vigilante quest, with the help of Lt Jim Gordon (Gary Oldman) and newly appointed District Attorney Harvey Dent (Aaron Eckhart). That is, until the appearance of psychopathic mastermind The Joker, whose escalating violent games throw the city into a new era of darkness. Batman uses every weapon in his ever-growing arsenal to great effect and the cast deliver masterful performances.
