i saw a preview of Joker today.

it's clear the filmmakers loved some 1970s classics; the cinematography, costuming, and art direction are top-notch. the craft is excellent overall and Joaquin Phoenix will get an Oscar nomination. he deserves it.

i don't need to ever see it again and i'm not sure who i would actually recommend this to - it's brutal, graphic, and depressingly grounded.

if you saw The Dark Knight and said, I wish it was WAY DARKER and also more quiet and depressing but with more murders, then you should git you some.

Many thanks for the warning. Real life is dark and depressing enough right now. I don't want it in my movies.

Yeah, I was pretty sure it was not for me, and now I am sure. Thanks.
