Also, when I say the movie is about Two Face I am not stating an opinion. I'm talking about the facts of how the story is constructed. It's not like I'm contending that it's any less of a Batman movie or anything.
It's just that Batman's arch was mostly set up in the first film.
Joker entered and left the story exactly the same. His character underwent no change. He was a force of nature and affected everyone around him.
I'm simply pointing out that Harvey Dent's character is the focal point of the story. It's his arch. In a literary sense, you could say he's the protagonist of the story. He shares that spot with Batman.
For Batman it's a trial, but for Harvey Dent it's a classic tragedy.
