Just watched Matt Reeves' The Batman (2022) and was very pleased with so much, in particular with Zoë Kravitz's portrayal of Selina Kyle and the filmmakers' visual cues for the character.

For over 20 years now, DC creators have been promoting stylistic parallels between Selina Kyle and Golden Age icon Audrey Hepburn.

First, with Darwyn Cooke's instructions to other artists on how to draw her in the phenomenol 2001 Ed Brubaker Catwoman comic series...

Then Adam Hughes' gorgeous Audrey-inspired Catwoman pinups...

Then Anne Hathaway's Holly Golightly-on-the-run ensemble in The Dark Knight Rises (2012)...

And now Kravitz's Selina in The Batman.

Her black catsuit in particular, with its very simple, wasp-wasted silhouette, combined with a pixie cut, is very Audrey as she is towards the end of Sabrina (1954).

Not to mention the recreation of a certain scene from Breakfast at Tiffany's (1961). Sorry I couldn't get a better pic from the movie:

Anyway, can't wait to see more of what this particular Batman universe has to offer, and always welcome a good homage to Audrey. ❤️

“I just escaped from prison, the last place I want to go is back.”

Dear Henry, I hope you will remember me. We once spent Labor Day weekend together – five of the best days of my life. I had always wondered who you would become and what you would look like. And then one day, I came across a familiar looking pie. And there you were. I’m proud of you. I will understand if you choose not to respond to this letter. However, I am due to be released shortly. I am no longer young but I have plenty of good health remaining and I’d like to live much the same way we discussed that weekend, back when we thought we’d be a family. Most likely your mother has remarried by now. But in the off chance that she might be alone, I wanted to ask you whether I might write her a letter. I promise you, I would sooner cut off my own hand than bring any more grief to Adele.
