Another kiss with Bruce Wayne reveals to Meridian that the Batman lost to the man with nothing to lose. The duality draws her close enough to pick his brain, but Batman only lands a kiss before she admits she loves another. Her interest in a man who dresses up like a bat to fight crime peaks at obsession. Chase Meridian (Nicole Kidman) has her smitten with the batty brooder. He also doesn't hesitate to put a rain check on nosy reporters, unless they're a potential love interest.Ī house call from the Bat-Signal and psychologist Dr. As the Batman, he converses with Gotham Police, conscious of the situation as it develops. As Bruce Wayne, he assumes an unassuming air, discerning but never too revealing nor reactive. Kilmer gives curt but commanding lines on both accounts. The nuance of Kilmer's dynamic with his Bat family shows he cares as Bruce Wayne, but he is not too sentimental to the point of being blind to the cases he solves as Batman. His only semblance of family is his dutiful butler, Alfred Pennyworth (Michael Gough). Fighting criminals and bringing them to justice has repressed Bruce Wayne's childhood trauma, the death of his parents. Underneath the charm, an underworld of noir dominates. The playboy mogul seems untouchable without a problem in the world. Riddle me this! Who is lucky with cards and unlucky with love? The hint: a man who has everything and nothing at all.
