Varró, GabriellaHorváth, Gábor2013-01-242013-01-242011-12-152013-01-24http://hdl.handle.net/2437/156817The two movies directed by Christopher Nolan and starring Christian Bale as Batman are the focus of my thesis, particularly the symbolism present: Batman’s actions following a tragic trauma mirror the actions the United States took after 911, declaring war against several terrorist organizations such as the Taliban and Al-Queda. The enemies that he faces in the movies, Ra’s al Ghul in Batman Begins and the Joker in The Dark Knight, are presented as terrorists hell bent on enacting their scheme on Gotham city, causing panic and destroying the city because of their moral convictions. My argument is, that through this symbolism present in the characters and their historical and current actions, the movies are justifying the actions of the United States.48enBatmanadaptálásdiplomamunkaDEENK Témalista::Művészetekip
