BATMAN BEGINS (M) Presented in 35mm

Batman Begins at Revival House Perth

Experience Christopher Nolan's masterful 2005 reboot that strips away decades of camp to reveal the dark psychological origins of Gotham's greatest protector. When young Bruce Wayne witnesses his parents' murder, his quest for justice takes him from the depths of despair to the mountains of Bhutan, where he learns that becoming a symbol requires sacrificing the man.

Christian Bale delivers a powerhouse dual performance as both the tormented billionaire and the intimidating Dark Knight, supported by an exceptional ensemble including Michael Caine's wise Alfred, Gary Oldman's incorruptible Jim Gordon, and Liam Neeson as the mysterious Henri Ducard who teaches Bruce that theatricality and deception are powerful agents.

Nolan's grounded approach transforms Gotham City into a living, breathing metropolis plagued by corruption and fear. The film's exploration of how ordinary people can inspire extraordinary change resonates through every carefully crafted scene, from Wayne Manor's hidden caves to the Narrows' urban decay.

Cillian Murphy's chilling Scarecrow and the film's focus on fear as both weapon and weakness create genuine psychological horror beneath the superhero spectacle. Hans Zimmer and James Newton Howard's haunting score underscores themes of justice, responsibility, and the thin line between hero and vigilante.

Presented on authentic 35mm film for the true cinematic experience!
