Batman and Me is an engrossing story of Melbourne man Darren Dags Maxwell who became addicted to collecting Batman merchandise in the late 1980s at the height of Batman fever after the 1989 film directed by Tim Burton. It starred Michael Keaton, Kim Basinger and Jack Nicholson no less and the music was composed by greats like Danny Elfman and Prince.
About the film
Darren Maxwell became addicted to collecting Batman merchandise in late 1980s Australia as a way to be a part of nascent geek culture. Decades later, Darren's stuck with a room full of collectables - a membership card to a fandom he no longer recognises - yet powerful forces beyond his control mean he's unable to let go. BATMAN AND ME is a sobering look at the highs and lows of obsessive collecting in an increasingly pop culture-centric world, and the price of admission to fandom.
