After the success of Batman Begins, Christopher Nolan comes back to direct The Dark Knight.
But Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight is not just a comic book movie. It is THE comic book
movie and is one of the best movies ever made.
So in The Dark Knight, Batman (Christian Bale) continues his reign as bringing back Gotham
from its own damnation and destroying organized crime in Gotham for good. With help from
Commissioner Jim Gordon (Gary Oldman) and District Attorney Harvey Dent (Aaron
Eckhart), their plans are working out. But the three fnd themselves fghting against a criminal
mastermind known as The Joker who forces Batman closer to crossing the line between a
symbolic hero and a vigilante.
One of the best things about this movie is Heath Ledger's masterpiece performance as The
Joker. The Joker is a villain who really tests Batman so that the latter is tempted to break his
One Rule (Never to kill). Heath Ledger as The Joker had such an amazing performance that we

actually believed that he was THE Joker. Heath Ledger didn't just deliver an Oscar Winning
Performance, but a role that no one will ever forget.
The Dark Knight is one of the best movies in contemporary flm history. Christopher Nolan did
something that many thought would never be possible. He created something different and
unique, inspiring directors like Sam Mendes, Ridley Scott, J.J. Abrams, and Shane Black to
make their own movies more realistic.
Dark, Complex, and Unforgettable, Christopher Nolan has done something that no comic
book movie has ever done before which is to transcend its genre, becoming more than a comic
book movie.

fts best according to the text.
LIKE many women these days, Aran Hissam, 35, of Melbourne, posted the news that she was
pregnant on Facebook. On the morning of an ultrasound last year, she debated on the site
whether to learn the baby's sex, musing "to peek or not to peek?" When she failed to post an
update later that day, friends started to contact her. Ms. Hissam decided to return to
Facebook to share the news that her unborn baby, a girl, had been found to have fetal hydrops
and given
no chance of survival. "I wanted to communicate the news to get people off my back," Ms.
Hissam said in a telephone interview recently. Although her husband was at frst surprised
that she would share such emotional news publicly, she said, Facebook seemed like one of the
least diffcult ways to get the word out.
Facebook, that repository of the mundane (mealtime updates, party reminders and job
changes) that people have long used to show the positive sides of their lives, is increasingly
also a place they go to break diffcult news. It was where the racecar driver Danica Patrick, 30,
announced that she and her husband of seven years, Paul Hospenthal, 47, were "amicably"

divorcing. And it is where a portrait photographer and mother of two named Alicia, 35 (who
did not want her last name published because of continuing custody issues), posted a few
succinct sentences about the breakup of her own marriage recently. People in her social circle
were starting to hear rumors about her personal life, she said, and she wanted to address that.
"I didn't want to start a pity party, but I did want to be honest about what was going on," Alicia
said, adding that "One of the beautiful things about Facebook is that it's passive
communication, and it gives people freedom to respond or not in whichever way they are
most comfortable."
Posting bad news on a social media site eases the pain for the bearer of bad news and the
recipient, because knowing what to say to someone who has just told you bad news can be one
of the most socially fraught situations. "If you put the news on Facebook, you're also
maximizing the recipient's comfort, so they can process the information on their own time,"
said Dr. Janet Sternberg, assistant professor of communication and media studies at Fordham
University. "It's really hard to break bad news without crying or falling apart. But we can share
painful news in
less painful ways." Dr. Louis Manza, a professor and chairman of the psychology department at
Lebanon Valley College in Pennsylvania, said: "From a cognitive perspective, it's easier to deal
with it this way. You post it, come back in eight hours and read all the comments that you get,
and don't have to worry about having a diffcult conversation."
But some experts think that putting bad news on Facebook almost inevitably trivializes it, to
the sufferer's further detriment. "If you post about someone's death or your divorce, it's not
that different from typing, 'I'm going to Starbucks,' " said Dr. Carole Lieberman, a psychiatrist
in Beverly Hills, Calif. Dr. Lieberman said that it is far preferable to tell people in person, as "it
is very human, very real and you have to deal with your feelings." In pre-Facebook days, she
pointed out, we all had to make 50 diffcult phone calls or ask friends and family to help and
we all managed to do it.
