Shunned by society and unable to find his place in a cruel world, stand-up comedian Arthur Fleck (Joaquin Phoenix) descends into madness and turns to a life of crime and chaos. Winner of the top prize at the Venice Film Festival, Todd Phillips’ radical vision of Gotham City’s Clown Prince of Crime is both a gritty character study and a broader cautionary tale. “Bold, devastating and utterly beautiful, Todd Phillips and Joaquin Phoenix have not just reimagined one of the most iconic villains in cinema history, but reimagined the comic book movie itself.” - EMPIRE
