Uncomfortably beautiful cinema

Rating: 10/10 (18 October 2019)

Join a descent into the darkest depths of depression and schizophrenia.
Pheonix plays an almost accidental tourist on his way to becoming the joker.
No delusions of granduer or thoughts of world domination, just a slow, jerking and painful stripping away of humanity.
systemic apathy towards mental health and the ignorance of the state are all contributing factors in molding of arthur, resulting in a rather stunned awakening as the joker.
Cannot recommend this movie enough
