Dark knight's a great production so much so that it even beat the opening sales for spiderman 3! Heath Ledger's role as the Joker was simply awesome acting. I won't deem it to the extent of acting anymore especially when he's able to bring out the joker's crude humor and pyschopatic nature to near perfection. The batman was rather a shadow of his past, and a lost guardian being tested to his limits of conduct.





Well..just before catching the movie, I was rushing on my way to the cinema. As usual, my wandering line of sight caught the eyes of yet another salesperson, and just as I thought I could weave pass him, I was approached. I was rather baffled by his request to sell me a small candy without disclosing his selling price. The market rate was claimed to be around $2, which seemed overly-priced to me even in the current midst of inflation. What triggered my attention the most was that he wasn't from any organisation when I asked for who he represented. He claimed that his objective was to compete with his group of friends in a game to see who can sell the most sweets in the shortest possible time.

I couldnt imagine myself going around and gathering public funds to satisfy my entertainment needs with a group of teenagers on a Saturday night which could be better spent in town. Who is going to be so naive as to buy the sweets from them when their rationale is purely a personal indulgence with no official accountability? I had no time to question this young boy any further, all the more I won't want to miss the dark knight.
