THC 75: Robert Sullivan | The Secrets of Masonic Ritual, Philosophy, & Symbolism
Batman Mythos and Solar Cycles in Film
The "Dark Knight" trilogy is framed as a solar cycle, moving from the beginning of night to the rising of the sun. Sullivan discusses the Jungian "shadow self" represented by Bruce Wayne and Batman, as well as the secret feminine archetype in Catwoman. The segment also notes the explicit solar imagery at the end of "Matrix Revolutions," where the sunrise is equated with the character Neo.
