Chapter 546： Bruce Wayne

The picture begins in a large courtyard, where two children, a man and a woman, are playing.

During the play, the little boy accidentally fell into a big hole, which also disturbed the bat swarm inside.

They flew wildly and printed in the terrified eyes of the little boy, which also became the lingering nightmare of the little young master.

Later, his father rescued Bruce and comforted him gently: "Do you know why they attack you? Because of fear. All creatures are afraid, even those scary bats."

In the narration of the camera, Bruce took the urban rail train built by the family and went to the opera with his parents.

Here, an actor playing the bat brings back bad memories for Bruce.

The father saw his son's nervousness, so the family left early.

But as soon as he went out, he met a homeless man with a gun. His father thought he would leave if he handed over the money, but the homeless man took a fancy to the pearl necklace.

During the snatch, the homeless shot twice without hesitation, and after getting all the belongings, he left without looking back.

This night, young Bruce was crying and standing on the street, the lonely shadow was pulled for a long time.

No one knew what he was thinking at this moment, but he always felt guilty about this matter, thinking that if it wasn't for his fear and left early, he would never have met the tramp.

He thought that the gunman would stay in prison for the rest of his life, but because he learned some secrets of the gang boss Falconi in prison and was willing to testify in court, he commuted his sentence and got an early parole opportunity. Knowing this, I rushed back here.

After so many years, he still couldn't let go of that.

Until this time, "Mystery of the Shadow" can be used as the opening work of the trilogy to set the tone, and it really asks a question through Nolan's audio-visual language, and uses an almost allegorical mode to tell the audience why Bruce Wayne is The role model ceiling of superheroes, he is not the most capable, but must be the most attractive, that is the "no-kill principle" that Wayne adheres to.

It sounds ridiculous, a crime-fighting person insists on what principles to criminals, but Nolan is to use this most controversial and Wayne's most adherent creed to nakedly present it in front of all audiences.

It is slowly expressed in the most direct, explicit and in-depth lens.

In the beginning, Wayne's parents are already millionaires, the richest family in Gotham, and they often give money back to the society. Then, they were killed by an ordinary homeless person.

Then Wayne, who grew up, learned that the enemy might have a reduced sentence, and went to the hearing with a gun. As a result, he was shot and killed by the gang who came to retaliate before he could do it.

Rachel, a young playmate, drove away Bruce, who was stunned, and told him that he was investigating Falconi, and this time he also shot and killed the homeless.

Bruce felt that there was nothing wrong with this, and it was considered justice for his parents.

But Rachel said that Falconi is simply a thug who ignores the law, and his behavior is wrong.

Bruce Wayne said indifferently: "There is something wrong with your system."

Upon hearing this, Rachel drove Bruce to a remote factory. This is Falconi's territory, where the prosperity of the city does not shine, and the darkness takes root here.

Rachel said that Falconi's actions are actually destroying everything your parents created, he just didn't kill it himself.

The car was parked in front of a bar, and Rachel told Bruce that Falconi was inside. If you want to thank him, you can say it in person.

Bruce closed his eyes and felt a little tired. He said that he was not a partner of justice. He had wanted to kill the homeless man for so many years. He had been thinking about this idea all the time.

But now, there is no chance.

There was relief in his tone, and he took out the prepared pistol from his pocket.

Rachel looked at Bruce in disbelief, extremely disappointed, with a sense of hating iron.

In this mood, Rachel slapped Bruce hard, and then a second time, "You really embarrass your parents."

Bruce didn't speak, he saw something in Rachel's eyes.

In fact, he didn't want to become the type of person who killed his parents, but he was very confused and felt that the homeless were the criminals. Isn't it right for him to be punished? Even if killed by another gang of thugs.

But Nolan spoke the core of this contradiction through Rachel's mouth.

It's not that justice cannot be done, but to do justice requires procedures and institutional constraints. If everyone takes revenge at will, what will the world be like?

Bruce angrily threw the pistol into the sea, then rushed into the bar to demonstrate to Falconi.

This part is actually the turning point of the first Bruce to become Batman in the whole film.

The gangster was playing in the bar, and there were groups of miserable people from the bottom of the society on the street outside. Then Bruce walked in and said, "I'm here because not everyone is afraid of you."

Falconi was amused by the reckless boy in front of him, but he was not polite to him either.

Falconi said, don't think that you can understand the world by witnessing your parents being killed. You are the prince of Gotham wherever you go. Do you still use me to find some ridiculous presence?

Whether you are afraid of me or not, it will be fine. There is still a lot to learn in this world for a young man like you. What can you know?

Falconi took out a gun, pointed it at Bruce, and mocked: "Don't have a gun? It's too boring. You shouldn't want to cry on the ground like your father."

These words were so harsh, and they managed to anger Bruce, but Falconi didn't dare to kill him, so he just let his subordinates throw him out of the bar.

Bruce is only now regretting his ridiculous gratitude, because he finds that Rachel is right, there is not much difference between a person who advocates violence and a person who advocates "kill for life".

He thought he was funny too.

This night, with confusion about various problems and fear of the unknown, Bruce decided to change his identity and set out to try to be a respectable man like his father, to find a way to save the city that seemed to have failed. .

He took out his savings and bought a homeless jacket, because he felt that Falconi was right in saying that he was born the prince of this city, and he never bowed his head to feel the life of the people at the bottom, he thought, his answer It takes that kind of experience to find it.

During this trip, Bruce lost a lot of ability to judge right and wrong. He would steal because of hunger, and he would personally experience the sense of fear in the face of sin and the pleasure of trampling on the rules after committing a crime.

He seemed to understand but not understood, and he wandered all the time until he met the second person in prison, Ducata.

Ducata told Bruce that there is an organization called the Shadow Warrior Alliance, and their belief is that "villains cannot be tolerated, and revenge is the solution."

But Bruce was still very puzzled, because these words were actually no different from what the gangster Falconi advocated. They were all using violence to solve violence.

The Shadow Warrior Alliance is another microcosm. It represents all the persecutions used to achieve their goals, which are unjust and unfair. They are also trampling on the rules, no different from Falconi.

Bruce was bewildered. Even if he didn't agree, he decided to take a look.

He found that blue flower at the foot of the snowy mountain and climbed to the top with difficulty.

There is a building towering over a cliff here, and Bruce finally meets the legendary Ras-a-gu and gets the approval of the leader.

After that, he followed Ducata to learn various fighting techniques.

Here, Ducata often uses Bruce's guilt for his parents to provoke him.

Bruce kept emphasizing that the homeless man had a gun in his hand.

In the end, when Bruce was tested and asked why he didn't dare to kill your enemy, Bruce really found the answer to the question he wanted.

Whether it is the Shadow Warrior Alliance or Falconi, they all return to what Rachel said in the end, "Do you really sympathize with them and protect them if you don't kill criminals?"

Just like the homeless robbed and killed the Wayne couple because of poverty, the Shadow Warrior Alliance was determined to destroy Gotham and rebuild Gotham for justice. It was just a reincarnation.

At this moment, Bruce Wayne finally stood up.

He began to understand: Killing a criminal is just preventing a crime. Darkness still breeds where he can't see it, but establishing an indelible spirit for the city can make justice live forever.

Bats flew from the pothole, and the legend of the Dark Knight began.

This is a deeper struggle. Bruce Wayne may only survive for less than a hundred years, but the spirit of Batman is indelible.

A criminal has fallen There are thousands of crimes;

When a Batman falls, thousands of superheroes stand up.

That night, under the shocking background music composed by Hans Zimmer, completely marked the rebirth of the bat.

Bruce's first action was to capture Falconi.

He sneaks into Gordon's room and asks why Falconi is committing a crime, selling drugs, and not going to arrest him.

Gordon froze for a while, but he still replied that he said that many people had been bought off, and to solve Fakoni, he needed to put pressure on the judge, and at the same time, he had irrefutable evidence, and a persevering prosecutor was willing to responsible for prosecution.

Bruce thought for a while and said, "Rachel Dawes."

Then he turned around and left. He ran in a dreadful way. Because of his unskilled business, he almost fell to his death.

So he went to Fox again, and Fox showed him a cloak, which is usually soft, but once it passes through an electric current, it changes shape and glides for a short distance.

Later, including a series of equipment in the Batmobile, Bruce grew up quickly.

Since then, Gotham has added a Batman who believes in the "no-kill principle", a guardian of the night...
