After attending an early press screening of "The Dark Knight" (the rest of us get to see it starting July 18), the AP's reviewer wrote, "Ledger elevates Batman's No. 1 nemesis to a place even Jack Nicholson did not take him ... Nicholson's Joker was campy and clever. Ledger's Joker is an all-out terror, definitely funny but with a lunatic moral mission to drag all of Gotham, the city Batman thanklessly protects, down to his own dim assessment of humanity." http://www.hutchinsonleader.com/community/jorge-sosa/heaths-joker-even-better-jacks#comments Batman Heath Leader Jack Nicholson The Dark Knight The Joker Fri, 27 Jun 2008 09:24:34 -0500 Jorge Sosa 8708 at http://www.hutchinsonleader.com
