Batman Returns

"Batman Returns" is a dark and atmospheric superhero film where the grotesque Penguin, lurking in Gotham's sewers, allies with corrupt businessman Max Shreck to eliminate Batman. After a near-fatal incident orchestrated by Shreck, his meek assistant Selina Kyle transforms into the fierce and seductive Catwoman. As she joins forces with Penguin and Shreck to challenge Batman, complex emotions arise between her and the Dark Knight. The movie stars Michael Keaton as Batman and Michelle Pfeiffer as Catwoman.

Trivia:
1. Michelle Pfeiffer famously performed many of her own stunts, showcasing her dedication to the Catwoman role, despite the extremely tight and uncomfortable costume.
2. The film's aesthetic was heavily influenced by German Expressionism and director Tim Burton's signature gothic style, creating a uniquely creepy Gotham City unlike typical superhero films.
3. Danny DeVito, who played the Penguin, lost 80 pounds for the role to appear more grotesque and physically transformed himself with prosthetics and makeup, which took hours to apply each day.
