Envy
Joaquin Phoenix’s portrayal is nothing short of mesmerizing
Diretto da Todd Phillips, "Joker" ci regala una storia delle origini agghiacciantemente plausibile per il famigerato personaggio principale. Ambientato nelle strade malfamate di Gotham City, il film segue Arthur Fleck (magistralmente interpretato da Joaquin Phoenix), un comico fallito che indossa due maschere: una da clown per il suo lavoro quotidiano e un'altra nel disperato tentativo di entrare in contatto con il mondo che lo circonda. Isolato, vittima di bullismo e ignorato dalla società, Arthur intraprende una lenta discesa nella follia, trasformandosi infine nella mente criminale nota come Joker.
