'Joker is the ultimate Joaquin Phoenix role, which is not necessarily a compliment, though not a disparagement either'
I’m not arguing that Todd Phillips’s movie will inspire killings, only that it panders to selfish, small-minded feelings of resentment and as such is profoundly boring. Photo: Courtesy of TIFF After the eight-minute standing ovation for Joker at the Venice Film Festival, the 20 seconds or so of enthusiastic applause at the Toronto International Film Festival came as a relief, at least to one critic.
We want Joker. We need Joker, if only to end the slow, masochistic trajectory. Kill someone, anyone! Rescue our eyes from those underlit interiors with their pools of red and green and yellow light — harlequin colors with a brackish tinge — and rusted-out, graffiti-ridden ’70s New York fire escapes and back alleys. We get the allusions — that Arthur is a melding of two Martin Scorsese protagonists, Rupert Pupkin and Travis Bickle .
