Film - The Joker

[Smowball]

Just watched it, with Joaquin Phoenix. Amazing acting even tho it was a bizarre role. Very well done.

I haven't seen but but I wonder whether it's really difficult to act a wacky psychopath. You can do almost anything you like in the role and nobody can say you're getting it wrong or going over the top. Jack Nicholson and Heath Ledger both got high praise in their day.

Very very strange role. But mesmerising

I don't know if it's difficult or not to act so wacky, but it's clearly possible to do it wrong, and it's clearly possible to do it differently. Ledger, Nicholson and Phoenix all brought something totally different to the role, and Phoenix's performance and the story it's telling are truly remarkable.

I found it bizarre but couldn’t stop watching it.......

Sorry to be a little pedantic but i'ts 'Joker' not 'The Joker'

[Smowball]

Yes you’re correct. I realised as soon as I posted but couldn’t alter it.

I reluctantly watched it as OH and Son wanted to, but I really enjoyed it. Not what I expected, in a good way, and very very good acting.

[Smowball]

Agree, was amazing acting!
