BATMAN BEGINS, THE DARK KNIGHT and THE DARK KNIGHT RISES make up the most successful superhero movie trilogy in history, and aspiring screenwriters can learn a lot from studying the complex structures and advanced storytelling techniques employed by Christopher Nolan (Man of Steel, Inception, Interstellar, Memento) and his screenwriting partners David S. Goyer (Man of Steel, Batman Vs. Superman, Blade II) and Jonathan Nolan (Interstellar, The Prestige) to bring the iconic comic book hero Batman to the big screen.
For writers of screenplays, comic books, novels, graphic novels and video games, "Story Maps: The Dark Knight Trilogy" written by professional Story Analysts Daniel Calvisi and William Robert Rich, breaks down each film beat for beat using the easy-to-follow Story Map method first introduced in the best-seller "Story Maps: How to Write a GREAT Screenplay."
Discover the common themes and screenwriting techniques that bind the films of the blockbuster THE DARK KNIGHT TRILOGY.
Christopher Nolan is known for complicated narratives that seem to BREAK ALL OF THE RULES of screenwriting structure and demand multiple viewings and intense analysis to understand. But when you see these movies broken down into the PRACTICAL and ACCESSIBLE template known as the STORY MAP, the classic techniques and advanced writing methods of these densely-plotted masterpieces reveal themselves.
