Original and still the best
As good as Christopher Nolan's Batman Trilogy was, this is still my favourite and Keaton is still the best Dark Knight. Dark and broody and with eyebrows made for the role, Keaton delivers as both Batman and Bruce Wayne while Jack Nicholson hits the perfect balance of menace and camp with his Joker. Ps -Great soundtrack too
PPS - the Batmobile has never looked so cool

I read this on my Kindle, having recently been republished. Not quite sure why it was part of a trilogy marketed as Regency Royal as only the first book was set in the Georgian period - this was much later (early 20th century) and none of the books were related to each other at all. Heroine in this one a bit silly, but still, MC Beaton always gives you a good read.

". . . Speaking of the human soul! This is a film of profound beauty made by a master of cinema, who could go from action-packed samurai epics to this tear-jerking gut-wrencher. This, The Apu Trilogy, and pretty much all of Ozu’s output (man, ten is just too small an amount to list here!) are micro-stories that focus on giant human themes, and I’m so glad they exist!"

"A dice roll—it could have been L’avventura or La notte, but I rewatched this recently and was blown away by Antonioni’s mastery and control, and his epic nihilistic vision of upper-middle-class despair is sweeping and unrivaled. Alain Delon and Monica Vitti are the most gorgeous couple in ’60s international cinema—embalmed and yet completely alive. The trilogy is one of the great achievements in twentieth-century film."

Angelina Jolie (0 more)
Early noughties film based in the 90s series of video games of the same name (snore the so-called 'Survivor' trilogy), with Angelina Jolie embodying Lara Croft far more, IMO, than Alicia Vikander would ever do.

The plot?

Completely nonsensical (something to do with The Illuminati and the control of time) but you don't watch these types of movies for the plot but to be entertained instead...
