A lire les critiques je constate qu’il y a des chiens de Pavlov partout. En contenant ses réflexes conditionnels on arrive à regarder l’oeuvre comme telle.
Le film ressemble étrangement à Bad Lieutenant d’Abel Ferrara où Harvey Keitel nous expose au processus de décomposition d’un caractère aliéné.

Le joker ne subit pas sa décomposition, bien au contraire il provoque la Aufhebung de sa souffrance dans un soulèvement de masse clownesque. Le dernier rempart contre sa révolte est une psychiatre noire intégrée au système carcéral. Finalement elle est aussi impuissante comme la police et les médias contre les puissances qui font du Joker l’expression d’un malaise concernant tout le monde.

Solution pratique pour mieux comprendre ce film : Consacrez sept minutes à une introduction dans la pensée de Hegel, ce qui est peu de temps mais c’est un début.

Le film se termine par une chanson de Frank Sinatra qui désigne le Joker comme incarnation actuelle de l’américain idéal. Elle explique la morale de l’histoire. J’y découvre beaucoup d’ironie, mais c’est uniquement mon impression personnelle. Et la vôtre ?

Frank Sinatra – That’s Life Lyrics
▻https://genius.com/Frank-sinatra-thats-life-lyrics
[Verse 1]
That’s life (that’s life), that’s what people say
You’re riding high in April, shot down in May
But I know I’m gonna change that tune
When I’m back on top, back on top in June
I said, that’s life (that’s life), and as funny as it may seem
Some people get their kicks
Stompin’ on a dream
But I don’t let it, let it get me down
Cause this fine old world it keeps spinning around
[Chorus]
I’ve been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet
A pawn and a king
I’ve been up and down and over and out
And I know one thing:
Each time I find myself flat on my face
I pick myself up and get back in the race
[Verse 2]
That’s life (that’s life), I tell ya, I can’t deny it
I thought of quitting, baby
But my heart just ain’t gonna buy it
And if I didn’t think it was worth one single try
I’d jump right on a big bird and then I’d fly
[Chorus]
I’ve been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate
A poet, a pawn and a king
I’ve been up and down and over and out
And I know one thing:
Each time I find myself laying flat on my face
I just pick myself up and get back in the race
[Verse 3]
That’s life, that’s life
And I can’t deny it
Many times I thought of cutting out but my heart won’t buy it
But if there’s nothing shaking come here this July
I’m gonna roll myself up in a big ball and die
My, my
