Beautifully Depressing

Rating: 10/10 (5 October 2019)

Joker was beautifully depressing like a Street Car Named Desire. It was by no means a Super hero film which I loved about it. Rather than formulaic dog shit, it actually did something different, dirty, grimy and succeeded in being hopelessly dark, captivating and Phoenix was brilliant. This is definitely the darkest Joker you will ever see and reminds me of Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer, The Tenant and Requiem for a Dream mixed with a Scorcesse/Tarantino Pizazz.
