Director Todd Phillips “Joker” centers around the iconic arch nemesis and is an original, standalone fictional story. Phillips’ exploration of Arthur Fleck (portrayed by Joaquin Phoenix), is of a man struggling to find his way in Gotham’s fractured society. A clown-for-hire by day, he aspires to be a stand-up comic at night… but finds the joke always seems to be on him. Caught in a cyclical existence between apathy and cruelty, Arthur makes one bad decision that brings about a chain reaction of escalating events in this gritty character study.
