Batman Director, Christopher Nolan, has issued a statement about the terrible incident that happened in Colorado during the midnight screening of “The Dark Knight Rises.”
Speaking on behalf of the cast and crew of The Dark Knight Rises, I would like to express our profound sorrow at the senseless tragedy that has befallen the entire Aurora community. I would not presume to know anything about the victims of the shooting but that they were there last night to watch a movie. I believe movies are one of the great American art forms and the shared experience of watching a story unfold on screen is an important and joyful pastime. The movie theatre is my home, and the idea that someone would violate that innocent and hopeful place in such an unbearably savage way is devastating to me. Nothing any of us can say could ever adequately express our feelings for the innocent victims of this appalling crime, but our thoughts are with them and their families.
“The Dark Knight Rises” is a great movie and is now showing in theaters everywhere ( that means right now) . GO AND WATCH IT PEOPLE… Don’t let this incident stop you from going to the movies and spending time with your family and friends because that’s what the shooter wants. DON’T LET HIM WIN!
“IN NOLAN WE TRUST”
