Rated R | Crime, Drama, Thriller | 122 min Struggling to make people laugh in grim early-1980s Gotham City, the mentally ill street clown and failed standup comedian, Arthur Fleck (Joaquin Phoenix), wears his smudgy makeup every day to eke out an existence. Mocked, bullied, and above all, marginalized, Fleck's slippery grip on reality will pave the way for a gradual descent into a dark world of unrestrained violence, as a loaded revolver enters the picture offering long-awaited liberation.
