<p dir="auto">Look at the way Joker's suit is highlighted, but the background color is muted, with the sunlight radiating in between the near-symmetrical buildings.<br />
Look at the way a glowing orb surrounds Joker's head in some of the shots.  It's like a surreal dreamlike world.<br />
He's blacked out here which makes the perfect shot.<br />
It looks like Scorsese's The King of Comedy.<br />
And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane<br />
By those who could not hear the music.</p>

<p dir="auto">it looks as if it was heavily inspired by some early scorsese pictures. i am anticipating it. ledger set the bar high but i think jacquin is the right person to match or exceed him.</p>

<p dir="auto">It doesn't appear that way.<br />
If you thought The Dark Knight and Logan reached the limits for how dark a comic book movie can go, think again. Joker ups the ante.<br />
It might make you uncomfortable, and it will no doubt stay with you long after the curtains close; great movies often do.<br />
Phillips has crafted an intimate, standalone character study that’s extremely influenced by another era of filmmaking. From the way the opening credits play, to the final frames of the movie, Phillips has taken the colorful comic book movie to the dirty, gritty streets of the late 1970s with fantastic results. Trust me, you have never seen a comic book movie like Joker and I’m not sure we will ever get one like this again.<br />
While this realistic depiction makes a place that’s typically fantastical seem familiar, it’s not just the recognizable setting that gives Joker its hyper-realism; it’s what it’s allegorically about that makes the movie so believable, timely, and worth talking about long after the credits roll. Joker is a period piece but it is undeniably about our own troubled, relentlessly violent time.”<br />
The climax is a gnarly triumph for the man who has now turned into the Joker, a baptism of blood and fire which brings to mind the political protests that have swept the world this decade, and the far more discrete, unknowable incident of Christine Chubbuck’s death.<br />
Joaquin Phoenix’s fully committed performance and Todd Phillips’ masterful albeit loose reinvention of the DC source material make Joker a film that should leave comic book fans and non-fans alike disturbed and moved in all the right ways.<br />
And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane<br />
By those who could not hear the music.</p>
