Exceptional performance that leaves you with a chill

Rating: 10/10 (22 October 2019)

Arthur peck, the fragile and broken clown. Only trying to do good and is always put down by society in various forms. Joaquin Pheonix displays the development, with the assistance of the director Todd Philips, in a way that the viewer does not really know what is going to happen throughout the movie. I was so thrown away by Joaquin that I do not think he knew what was going to happen. Every decision including killing seemed like something that just happened along the way because the joker saw that it was relevant to him at the time.
The Joker's laughter is something to note as well. It is between a histeric laugh and a wild cry and everything in between. It is truly a character trait that Joaquin has made for himself and the character.
The character development set some really big stones. understanding that the Joker has been through a life of hell and dealing with a ferocious society on a daily basis has made him numb to feeling anything. He kills without feeling any remorse and has become nonscholant to any pain.
I do not think that the viewer agrees or identifies with the Joker but it does give the aspect of understanding him.
Well played Joaquin and Todd!
