Senator Pat Leahy Reviews "The Dark Knight"

It made me giggle. Those multi-faceted senators.... should Ebert be worried?

“The Dark Knight” Was Brilliantly Made (Sen. Patrick Leahy)

July 21st, 2008

This, more than any earlier film, explores the psychotic nature of the Joker, but also the psychological conflicts in the Batman. It was brilliantly filmed, and Heath Ledger’s performance was so good that it shows us what great potential there was in an actor who died much too young.

Editor’s Note: Sen. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) has a speaking role in “The Dark Knight” and appears in a scene with deceased actor Heath Ledger that can be viewed here.

UPDATE-
