Pretty much only Bale and Conroy were able to get across the different personalities in Bruce Wayne/Batman.
I disagree. I think Keaton had a distinct Wayne/Batman as well. The difference was that his movie wasn't as gritty, and it didn't feel like Bruce was as consumed by Batman as Conroy and Bale. It felt more like Bruce had a greater separation between himself and the cowl. I don't think that's all Keaton's fault though. In the Burton films, greater attention was placed on "Okay, you're Batman because your parents died. Go to it." They didn't really focus on the larger torment that the Nolan films did. I think it's just the evolution of the back story.
