Abstract
Director Christopher Nolan’s 2008 film,The Dark Knight, exposes the imbalance between the legal system and a code of moral justice through the portrayal of its characters, especially Harvey Dent, the Joker, and Batman. Because the Joker’s taunts against the Batman seem to contain elements of truth, the movie creates suspense as it explores this imbalance.
