The DARK Knight

No Bridget, I am NOT an ugly, stupid, jerky, obsessive, movie fanatic, but---I LOVED 'The Dark Knight.' Yes I DID! I'm not a 'Batman' fan but that is a GOOD movie. Breezy talked me into watching it last night. She thought I needed a 'down' night. She was so right. The movie fascinated me on so many levels. To have ALL the main characters show that they have mental issues, that was unexpected. The police commissioner that would allow his wife to believe him dead, the 'batman' that allows his 'need' to help overshadow what should be his 'life', those men who prove they'll do ANYTHING for money, only to watch it burn, the D.A. that CAN be pushed 'over the edge' and of course the 'joker'. I thought they'd said that role was Heath Ledger's 'finest hour' because of the tragedy, not so, the man was captivating! Such a dark mind! Oh my! Yes, for now, I have a new favorite movie!

LOL I was having a bad day. Anyhow I haven't watched the Dark Knight but it sounds pretty good, maybe I should? What do you think?
