Weekend Preview: The Dark Knight, A Room of One's Own, Feist, Wolf Parade, Kill Me Tomorrow

Tom Fudge:      The Dark Knight is the name of a movie that opens tomorrow, and it's the latest film version of the Batman series. But apparently this is not just another Batman. Critics are raving about this movie, which stars Christian Bale in the title role.  One of the most remarkable things about it is the role of the Joker, Batman's nemesis, is played by the actor Heath Ledger, who died of a prescription drug overdose earlier this year.
     It's one of the things we're going to be talking about during today's Weekend Preview.
