    The openness to experience is very evident throughout the development of the Batman persona, and is shown through his inventive and curious nature. But as Bruce Wayne, the character not only shows inventiveness and curiosity, but as shows a more cautious approach to things, and people, that are considered close. The interaction between the personas shows through on several occasions in the movie series, but specifically in The Dark Knight Rises (Nolan, 2012), when he encourages the character of Blake to dawn a mask in order to provide protection for the ones he cares about. The choice to utilize a mask in order to protect the loved ones of Bruce Wayne was clearly evident and further shows the consistent and cautious side of that persona of the character. An interesting point on this is that both personas seem to embody both sides of the extreme on this trait consistently while at the same time crossing over from one identity to the other and back again seamlessly.…

Batman was created by Bruce Wayne not only to protect his identity but also to keep him with that super hero vision as being incorruptible but Bruce would not have been able to stop such evil as he did without Batman being an extension of himself.

Batman is referring to crime alley where he eventually dies of a heart attack, the same place where his origin or initially “birth” began. It was the heart drive and tenacity that made him who he is Batman. However, in this cased his own will and heart has failed to make him achieve another victory.
