Catwoman is the story of shy, sensitive artist Patience Philips (Halle
Berry), a woman who can't seem to stop apologizing for her own existence.
She works as a graphic designer for Hedare Beauty, a mammoth cosmetics
company on the verge of releasing a revolutionary anti-aging product. When
Patience inadvertently happens upon a dark secret her employer is hiding,
she finds herself in the middle of a corporate conspiracy.
What happens next changes Patience forever. In a mystical twist of
fate, she is transformed into a woman with the strength, speed, agility
and ultra-keen senses of a cat. With her newfound prowess and feline
intuition, Patience becomes Catwoman, a sleek and stealthy creature,
balancing on the thin line between good and bad. Like any wildcat, she's
dangerous, elusive and untamed. Her adventures are complicated by a
burgeoning relationship with Tom Lone (Benjamin Bratt), a cop who has
fallen for Patience but cannot shake his fascination with the mysterious
Catwoman, who appears to be responsible for a string of crime sprees
plaguing the city.
