8 Michael Keaton Movies That Remind You He IS Batman

4. Clean And Sober

€œI€™m going to need a full cup this time, Mr. Wayne.€ Clean and Sober is an excellent movie. The actors are incredibly strong, and it paints a very accurate picture of what can come along with the struggles of addiction. But whenever Morgan Freeman illuminates the frame, I can€™t help smirking a little more than I usually do in his movies, because of where the two epic actors€™ careers would eventually go, and they didn€™t even know it yet. A few times I was fully prepared to hear Morgan Freeman wrap up some of his lines with a good €œMr. Wayne.€ There are also scenes where Freeman is overseeing Keaton and other members of a rehabilitation program doing push-ups. I really can almost see that room as a subterranean training area of Applied Sciences, not far from the Tumbler testing track. And also, for you die-hard Flash TV show fans out there, let€™s not forget the presence of the always great M. Emmet Walsh. One can only hope Kathy Baker gets cast in a superhero movie as well one of these days. Maybe it€™d get more people to watch her other work too.
