real human nature

I saw a comment and thought where is the real chilling part of this film? In the human heart, it is human nature.

I think the real horror is
I felt so cool when the clown shot those two working men in the subway!
When the clown suffocates that ever-present fantasy mother with a pillow, I feel so good!
I felt so relieved when the clown stabbed that vile colleague to death!
When the clown shoots the host at the bottom of the entertainment crowd on a talk show, I think that's how it should be!
There is a clown in our hearts, but it has not yet erupted. This is the horror of human nature, and it is also the dark side of social development. History is always the same, and one day will usher in the moment of this great cleansing, this is the The source of terror.

Now is 2020/6/9, think about the recent reality in the United States. Art comes from life.

    Joker is not a high-function sociopath who is born cold-blooded and has a poor conscience. Such evil is too lacking in dimension and too thin. The psychological logic of going from good to evil is not complicated, as psychologist Karen Horney said in "The Conflict in Our Hearts": "Behind the seemingly inhuman behavior, there is a suffering person, a A person struggling in despair, life beats him, and he seeks compensation." Some pain consumes inwardly and kills the self; some pains attack outwardly, incubating into violence. Madness seems to be the only way out when good is in the way and evil is unimpeded. The most comfortable moments in Joker's life all come from the evil shield. But just as he went on a killing spree, he still kissed and "pardoned" the only dwarf who had treated him well. Such a story further illustrates: kindness is not a gift, not a gift from God, but a difficult, regardless of the cost of choice. Nothing to say. Five stars for Joaquin.

    If you haven't watched Lynn Ramsey's "You've Never Been Here", you will think "Joker" is pretty good. But once the comparison is made, it is found that when the characters’ personalities are close to each other, and even the family background identity and mental state are somewhat similar, it is also Phoenix. In "You Have Never Been Here", he is an unpredictable silent eruption of grief, and In "Joker", it is a tired character who exudes loud noises and instantly becomes tense and collapses and can no longer progress. In character-centered films, the Hollywood-style environment forces the characters to make a series of actions and reactions. Eventually, all behaviors are turned into a dramatic drama with a single cause and effect that cannot be nuanced. In essence, this driving mode keeps the characters forever The masturbation climax cannot reach the core of the delicate pleasure. It is far inferior to the explosive and endless aftertaste of the suggestive portrayal of the character's mentality and thoughts between actions in "You Have Never Been Here". Probably the only inspiration is that DC or Marvel movies can also have such themes. Shooting Batman, Superman and Captain America how to deal with insomnia, stomach pain and anxiety should be more interesting than fighting monsters.
