Joker joke

Some time ago, I watched the movie "The Clown" in the Storm Theater in Baoding. This is not a superhero movie, but a crime movie featuring ordinary people at the bottom, which is probably the most profound analysis of human nature in all Marvel comic DC movies in recent years.

The film created an excellent atmosphere for gotham city. Dark and wet roads, streets full of rubbish, and a volatile atmosphere of riots. This kind of environment, coupled with a tragic life experience and a bad day, is enough to push an honest man to the abyss. From rationality and kindness to numbness and madness, every step of change is authentic.

Joaquin phoenix's bony appearance is distressing. There is no doubt that if there is no clown after Heath Ledger, the award-winning performance of this film can be taken back.

At the end of the film, Gotham citizens put on clown masks and make trouble in the streets. The whole city is full of flames and anger, which is a populist carnival.

Why did the world become like this? The clown made it very clear on Franklin's program. Because the rich never look at problems from the perspective of the poor, they simply don't want to know how a clown-like loser lives, what he feels and what he has on his mind. Wayne only regards clowns as murderers, losers, psychopaths and perverts; He said that all unsuccessful losers are clowns and jokes; As for himself, we know from the Batman series that he is a philanthropist, and he (and his son Batman) must feel brilliant and impeccable!

But Wayne didn't understand the sentence in The Great Gatsby: "Whenever you want to criticize others, remember that not everyone in this world has the advantages you have."

Clowns also want to live less like a joke. If they can't be heroes in a play, they should at least play a tragic role. But he doesn't have the capital. He can't do it.

Clowns are not without efforts. In the first half of the film, although he was miserable, he still had dreams and expectations. He tried very hard to make people laugh, believed in Wayne's logic and dreamed of bringing laughter to the world. He often watches other people's talk shows and writes his own jokes in his notebook. He is much more diligent than some people and internet celebrities now. He wants to be famous and prove his ability, but he has no resources, no background and no luck. Therefore, all he got was constant ridicule and denial from others. He used to be so docile: take medicine on time, report to the doctor on time, keep smiling, and carry the card "I'm sick, sorry to bother you" with me.

Even if the clown lacks a little comedy talent, if he has a good father's support, he can take a shortcut to the top immediately! You don't have to compare salaries with each other. In a few years, you will understand that the material level mainly depends on the virtue of ancestors. The clown's mother drew him a huge cake: he is the illegitimate son of the richest man in Gotham, and his poverty is temporary now. Don't worry, he will get a piece of it sooner or later! When a huge legacy falls from the sky, you can immediately turn over and become a nobleman!

Everyone is eager to cross the gap, and even children will dream that they are the illegitimate children of the rich to comfort themselves! This is why the princess is so popular! Unfortunately, the fact of being born into a poor family is something that God cannot change.

The clown saw his hopes in life dashed one after another: he lost his job and became the least funny talk show artist. He is not the illegitimate son of a rich man, and the woman next door is not what he thinks. Then he saw how heartless Wayne was and didn't care about his life or death: social assistance programs were cut, and he tried his best to see that Wayne just got an old punch, and then Wayne kept promoting his charity dinner and campaign plan on TV.

Perhaps no one can endure humiliation and trampling forever, even if those insults are "justified"; Maybe no one can endure unfairness forever, even if it's just what they think.

The clown said: it's up to you to be right or wrong, and it's up to you to be funny or not. Why live by the standards you set? What makes you think that "we" will always be quietly at the mercy of "you" like good children?

Finally, the clown killed his mother, who had been writing to Wayne and had always had illusions about the elite. Perhaps this marks that he has completely cut off his illusions about Wayne and stood on the opposite side of all social order. He became a completely different person from the beginning of the film, drawing a smile with blood in the street riots. He said: maybe this is the real me, maybe I am.

But I always feel that he thinks so just to rationalize his behavior. After watching the first half of the movie, I knew he was not a born monster. He used to be a kind person like us, lonely and helpless.

Delicious and elegant, with the same name in the official account of WeChat, looking forward to your attention!
