The Dark Knight Trilogy ~ Paperback ~ Christopher Nolan

The trilogy commenced with “Batman Begins”, which traced the origins of how Bruce Wayne took on the role of the masked crusader to fight the forces of evil. But the Batman's adver­saries in the first film paled in comparison to the forces of anarchy unleashed by The Joker in the second film, “The Dark Knight”. Physically and psychologically depleted by his encounter with The Joker, in “The Dark Knight Rises”, Batman must marshal all his forces to meet the threat to Gotham City posed by the masked villain Bane. These three films form a trilogy unique in the history of cinema – and express a dark imaginative vision that reflects the uncertainties of the 21st century. Author Biography Christopher Nolan is the writer/ director of Following, Memento, The Prestige (with Jonathan Nolan), and Inception, as well as Batman Begins (with David S. Goyer), The Dark Knight (with Jonathan Nolan) and The Dark Knight Rises (with Jonathan Nolan).
