Batman Returns

Director Tim Burton’s second take on Michael Keaton’s Caped Crusader takes place in a wintry Gotham City, with The Penguin (Danny DeVito) attempting a lateral move from the sewers to politics under the wing of corporate creep Max Shreck (Christopher Walken). Meanwhile after Selina Kyle (Michelle Pfeiffer) stumbles across Shreck’s sinister plans – and takes a literal fall for the discovery – she takes on the identity of Catwoman to exact revenge, while also toying with the city’s other two costumed combatants like a feline with a ball of twine.
