The Dark Knight Rises (2012):

Studio: Warner Brothers

Written by: Christopher Nolan

When the film starts, we see a car taking three prisoners to a plane. Then the plane takes off and the CIA questions them. One of the prisoners turns out to be Bane. Bane tells the leader of the questioning about a plan. The CIA questioner asks what the next step of the plan is before Bane answers “Crashing this plane”. Then Bane launches an attack and escapes the CIA killing all of them in the process.

When Bane first speaks, we are at the same height as him with the CIA at a higher level which show who is in control.

After Bane’s attack, the CIA were below the camera whereas Bane is above it showing how the power has changed.

There is a clear difference between Bane and his sidekicks and the CIA due to their costumes. All of the CIA are wearing camouflaged clothing whereas Bane and his men are wearing black or dark colours
