AMAZING. A reflect of today's society.

Rating: 9/10 (7 October 2019)

Mean while Joaquin Phoenix play is worth to be called ART... the story is what impress me the more.
In times where wealthy and poor struggle middle class to the point of vanishing it, the story gets this villain, The Joker, and explain the background of his madness. This madness that everybody feels when see injustice and social inequality but in the other hand you see what rich people, politicians and wealthy class reflects, the good guys have their backgrounds too and some times are as dirty as their business. Ethics is not black and white but a gray scale.
Joker, unintentionally becomes a symbol of social movements against the rich, misunderstand by most and that is the starting point of the birth of a hero.
Joaquin Phoenix's Joker cannot be compared to Heath Ledger's Joker, they are in different space and time... They have different motivations. Joker is the representation of middle class (although he is not), hurt by poor and rich, he just not fit in.
Perhaps is closer to an art film in the way of balance between comedy (bizarre comedy) and drama. Sometimes you can laugh and then you feel pity for Arthur. It is so real to the point that it can be extracted from a true story.
Besides all what I just mentioned, Joaquin Phoenix seems to me that at the final scene makes an odd voice, a voice with two tones, acute and deep at the same time (or it is just sound effects). The way his body looks, creepy and misshapen, it is another thing that call my attention, his scapula looks out of place and it simply adds more elements to understand Joker's misery. Additional to that his interpretation of the Joker's laugh, voice, sigh and movements are fantastic, the way he dance is just amazing, there are movements that reflects the madness in him.
Just AMAZING.
