Keaton's 1989 Batman is considered one of the first films that truly opened Hollywood's eyes to the box office potential of superhero movies.
Michael Keaton’s unhinged take on Batman has gone down as one of the best big-screen interpretations of the Dark Knight.
Tim Burton recently told The Hollywood Reporter. “They’re somebody who’s intelligent and kind of screwed up. And Michael has such an intensity that it’s like, ‘Yeah, I could see that guy wanting to dress up as a bat.’ It’s all rooted in psychology, in two sides of a personality, light and dark, and he understood that.
Critics and Bat-fans particularly enjoyed Keaton’s portrayal of the brooding, conflicted, billionaire, turned vigilante.
