One of the reasons the movie, The Dark Knight, has done so well is because it toyed with the viewer’s sense of morality. In one of the scenes the hero, Bruce Wayne, had to choose between saving Harvey Dent, a district attorney, or Rachel, who was Harvey’s girlfriend.

This system of creating two contrasting characters relating to the same story and then using them to provoke the thought of the viewer is notably used in not only many popular movies, but also in literature novels such as Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. Frankenstein is a great example of this system because Shelley efficiently uses Victor and the creature to distort the reader’s thoughts and sense of morale. Mary Shelley’s use of this system is successful in provoking thoughts of the person’s moral judgment and providing the reader with…
