The Big Picture Batman’s enemy-turned-lover, Catwoman, is one of the most iconic characters in the DC Comics pantheon, almost equal in popularity to the Caped Crusader himself. Also known as Selina Kyle, the fixture to the Batman mythos has been adapted into various other forms of media.
Selina’s declining sanity and mission of vengeance against Max Shreck in Batman Returns gives Pfeiffer a lot of dynamic material to work with, and she definitely turns in an incredible performance. Hathaway and Nolan, however, deliver the first cinematic adaptation of the character that is both serious and generally faithful to her comic book personality and history.
Selina represents something of an ideological middle ground between the two extremes. Although she becomes visibly uncomfortable with the violent tactics the revolution employs even before learning the truth about the bomb plot, she is initially in favor of it despite her fear of Bane, telling Bruce, “There’s a storm coming, Mr. Wayne.
One could argue that The Batman does a better job of exploring these themes. This is especially because, given its story of a citywide conspiracy headed by mob boss Carmine Falcone and supported by many police, and the fact that its villain, The Riddler is legitimately motivated by ideas of class warfare, unlike Bane, but Nolan and company still deserve credit for how they depicted the topics, and Hathaway’s Selina is crucial to their efforts at doing so.
