The Dark Knight
Jul. 18th, 2008 03:24 pmWhen I read Frank Miller’s “The Dark Knight Returns” in the late ‘80s, I was struck by the vivid and unrealistic dystopia it portrayed: here was a society wherein every idiot had an equal chance of getting airtime for his ill-considered worldview and wherein the media chose to expound not the most true or even most relevant of these, but the most shocking.
20 years later, we live in that society.
( Cut for the really slim possibility that you consider the things in this movie review to be spoliers. I don't think they are, but YMMV. )
