The Dark Knight is one of the greatest comic book movies of all time, ranked among the popcorn cinema elite in fan polls as one of the best movies ever. The penultimate chapter of Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight trilogy saw Christian Bale’s Batman up against the Joker, portrayed with haunting villainy by the late Heath Ledger, who won a posthumous Oscar for the role. Ledger’s commitment to the character is the stuff of legend. But there were plenty of other cool facts behind the scenes, as well.
