As a cinephile who has spent countless hours immersed in the intricate worlds of Quentin Tarantino‘s cinematic universe, I find it utterly captivating to hear such passionate praise for Todd Phillips’ “Joker: Folie à Deux” from the master himself. The man behind iconic characters like Vincent Vega and Butch Coolidge sees a striking resemblance between this sequel and his own work on Natural Born Killers, a comparison that leaves me eagerly anticipating the film’s release.
Recenty, filmmaker Quentin Tarantino appeared on The Bret Easton Ellis Podcast and voiced his positive opinions about Todd Phillips’ upcoming movie, “Joker: Folie à Deux”. He really seemed to appreciate it!
Indeed, I found myself deeply captivated by it. I had high expectations for the cinematic experience, but I initially believed it might be a somewhat detached, cerebral exploration. However, to my surprise, it didn’t strike me as a cinematic endeavor that would ultimately fail to resonate emotionally, but rather an intellectual piece that I could admire for its unique qualities.
I’m open to a certain amount of nihilism and can even appreciate a film that seems to fall apart as a cohesive piece. In essence, it’s chaotic and disorganized to some extent. However, it wasn’t an intellectual challenge for me; instead, I became engrossed in it. I particularly enjoyed the musical segments, and the less sophisticated the songs were, the more I was drawn in.
To a significant extent, this appears to draw heavily from Natural Born Killers, a film I wrote. This is the Natural Born Killers I would have envisioned; as the creator of characters like Mickey and Mallory, it resonates deeply with me. The way they adapted it was exceptional, and I admired the path they chose. In essence, the entire movie seems to be a vivid portrayal of Mickey Knox’s delirium.
Todd Phillips, in an ironic twist, is the one who brought the Joker character to life on screen by directing the movie. His unconventional use of studio funds and the unexpected surprise gift he gave (which resembles a prank reminiscent of the Joker’s humor) are similar to how comic book enthusiasts might depict the Joker’s antics.
He’s saying f— you to all of them. He’s saying f— you to the movie audience. He’s saying f— you to Hollywood. He’s saying f— you to anybody who owns any stock at DC and Warner Brothers […] And Todd Phillips is the Joker. Un film de Joker, all right, is what it is. He is the Joker.
