Discover how Burton’s directorial style shaped Gotham into an eerie, atmospheric metropolis and set a lasting visual standard. With Danny Elfman’s iconic score and groundbreaking design choices, Batman became more than just a movie—it became a cultural milestone. Tune in for behind-the-scenes stories, reflections on the film’s legacy, and a deep dive into the themes that make Batman a timeless classic. Don your cape, and let’s head to Gotham!
