Thank you. Yes, that is it. The movie is difficult to find and deduce. Good work!
Thank you, wositelec. No, the movie is from the nineties or eighties.
Thank you, jacotodd47. I couldn't find a collective choice among any of the actors who played Batman. Adam West's portrayal of Bruce was debonair. He had the kindest and calmest rationality for the character, and managed to bring humor in to the man's high education. Michael Keaton had the best balance for Batman, though. He delivered the intimidation that Adam West lacked without carrying the melancholic weight that Robert Pattinson did, and avoided the nonsense that Val Kilmer brought to the screen. The last actor was much too immature as Batman and Bruce, but that matched the very childish nature of <i>Batman Forever</i>. Regarding Catwoman's physical abilities, I agreed with you, but Julie Newmar was better at showing the villainess' sexual obsession with Batman. I also shared your view about Penguin. Frank Gorshin as Riddler was something that I hated. His air was acutely uncomfortable, and laugh very obnoxious. Paul Dano successfully reached the point of the riddling freak: a deranged yet analytical man with a morbid interest in wild violence and psychological games.
Thank you very much, ccr1633! Yes, scary and freakish things appear in this film. <i>Eyes Wide Shut</i> demonstrates that regardless of its sound, there is nothing amusing about treating sex as a party or means for cash. Both are an outrage and quickly grow dangerous.
Thank you, SandyR! I appreciate that you understand my observations.
On the contrary, einstein, it's a major matter in the film, and I'm very surprised that anyone who has watched this would not grasp that. The story is saturated with warnings about inappropriate relations.
SandyR, there is hypocrisy in the behavior, but it has come with the territory of other problems. The chief fuel is that Alice has never felt secure as a wife and grown to believe that her marriage is collapsing. She is struggling, in a very childish way, to get her husband's attention. It is emphasized that Alice and Bill are not mature enough to be married, which lends itself to one of the strongest messages of the movie: be careful with sex.
Okay, maybe that could count as an invitation, but Jerry appears as a man in his forties despite being centuries old, so his shoving an identification card in to the face of the doorman would be suspicious. Perhaps the vampire would <i>not</i> be let in after that. Nonetheless, your scenario creates for me a funny image of Jerry wanting to throw his suaveness and smugness about in every way and proving to the world that he belongs anywhere the instant that he wishes to be there.
Thank you, Ranb. That is a decent thought, but asking permission for entry is not the same as being invited inside, so I don't believe that it would work for a vampire.
Thank you, George. Yes, it is.
