A shy woman, endowed with the speed, reflexes, and senses of a cat, walks a thin line between criminal and hero, even as a detective doggedly pursues her, fascinated by both of her personas
Catwoman is the story of shy, sensitive artist Patience Philips, 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, 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
Patience Phillips (Halle Berry) is a timid woman who can’t stand up for herself. She lets people walk all over her, and has wasted her artistic talent working for a cosmetic company as a graphic designer. George Hedare (Lambert Wilson) runs the company with his supermodel wife, Laurel (Sharon Stone). The company is about to launch a new anti-aging product nationwide. Patience must go to the production factory to deliver her artwork, and she accidentally hears that the product has unsafe health problems. To keep the secret safe, she must to be eliminated. Patience runs into a large waste water pipe, where she is trapped, and they flush her into the river, where she drowns. An Egyptian Mau cat has been watching Patience for several days, knowing that she was about to die. The cat has special powers that are given only to a few deserving women after they die. Patience is reborn with new catlike powers. She now becomes Catwoman with the senses and agility of a cat. Patience and Catwoman are two completely different people, yet they are one. Catwoman goes on the prowl, looking for the reason why she was murdered, and then for revenge. A police detective, Tom Lone (Benjamin Bratt), who is investigating crimes, that he thinks Catwoman committed, meets Patience and asks her out for a date. Catwoman’s wild side begins to have more influence over Patience, and she begins to follow her own rules
