This soundtrack is a subtle blend of mystery, action, darkness and hope. Far from the epic and effective style but sometimes "crude" by Hans Zimmer, the collaboration between James Newton Howard and Hans Zimmer good few great moments of musical subtlety. Themes on the piano, the powerful bottom and a host of emotions.
It is interesting to listen to this soundtrack with the Dark Knight to feel the evolution of the Batman character that reinforces his heroism and his blackness but also to enjoy a maturation in the collaboration of the two composers.
