jake-its-chinatown: The first four days of scheduled shooting resulted in no film being rolled. Instead, Christopher Nolan screened two films a day for the cast and crew with a break in between. The eight films were: Heat, Cat People, Citizen Kane, King Kong, Batman Begins, Black Sunday, A Clockwork Orange, and Stalag 17. Nolan hoped to mimic the tones of these films in The Dark Knight, specifically in the order he showed them.
