No longer are they Marvel wannabes who attempt humor at the expense of dignity.<\/span><\/p><p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Although the Joker is a comedian, the film stands void of any comic relief, when relief is amply needed. \u201cSuccessfully suppressed\u201d might describe your position, and your feelings, as you continue your journey with\u00a0 Phoenix who always fully commits to an intimate relationship with his character. Growing into his part, we share in discovering the unbearable intimacy of knowing someone who is afflicted in almost every way. Joaquin Phoenix (<em>Gladiator<\/em>) as Arthur Fleck will be Best Actor this year, easily.<\/span><\/p><p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">This is not a typical comic book story. Not an adventure. Not a revolutionary. Not feel good. It is a masterful film noir that no longer implements the typical surface techniques to achieve the genre, but rather reaches a real desolate place in the mind-body spirit realm and defines humanity this way through a series of delusional desires.<\/span><\/p><p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Your femme fatale?
