Joker (2019) - full transcript

If you see it, it's terrible.

It doesn't affect me, except it makes a bad odor.

- That's terrible. - Chaotic, I've never seen anything like it ...

Today's other news ...

Regarding the recent crisis ...

Hey!

Hey you guys!

Let's go!

We got the board.

Stop them!

Do not stop!



Make them stop!

Hey!

Stop That's not your board!

Come on!

Move!

Give it back!

Stop

Hey clown head!

Come on!

Beat him up! Come on!

Sick!

Come on!

Come on! Come on! Come on!

Is this just me ...



Or getting crazy out there.

This is clearly tense.

Disappointed people.

The struggle, looking for work.

This is a hard time.

How about you?

You keep your journal?

Yes ma'am.

Nice.

Do you take it with you?

Arthur. Last time, I asked you to bring your journal, but was disappointed.

Can I see it?

I use it as a journal.

But also as a joke diary.

Funny thoughts, or or quotes.

I think I told you I was pursuing a career in comedy.

No, you are not there.

I think I exist.

I just hope my death makes more sense than my life.

How does it feel to have to come here?

Does that help? Is there someone to talk to?

I think I'm better when I'm locked in the hospital.

And think more about ...

Why are you locked?

Who knows.

I just wanted to ask the doctor if I could ask for additional treatment.

Arthur, you're on 7 kinds of medicine.

Surely they must have a reaction.

I just want to feel not too bad anymore.

I'm not bothering him. Stop it.

It's okay, I have a card ..

Sorry..

Hapi, can you check the letter, when you're there.

Yes ma'am.

No, nothing.

Authorities say the city was attacked by a herd of rats.

And now we fight mice.

You stopped taking my letter.

Thomas Wayne.

Is he the one.

Please ... I walked down the aisle for years.

At least you can fight back.

I can't, I'm tired.

This.

You have to eat.

Look how thin you are.

He became a great mayor. Everyone says that.

Oh, yes. I guess too.

Who are you talking to?

Everyone on the news.

He is the only one who can save the city.

He owes it to us.

Sit here honey.

Well.

From the NCB studio

In the city of Gotham, this is direct.

With Murray Franklin

Tonight we welcome comedians

Murray Franklin

We have a great audience tonight.

Wow, thank you, thank you.

Thanks.

So everyone heard about super mice in Gotham, right?

Today, the mayor says he has a solution, are you ready for this?

Super cat.

Seriously, I mean ... I love you, Murray!

I love you too.

Hey Bobby, can turn on the light.

Who is that? Is that you? Do you want to stand up, please?

Stand up.

Hey.

Hi Murray. Arthur.

Arthur./My name is Arthur.

Okay, there's something special with you Arthur, I know.

Where are you from? / I live here in this city.

With my mother.

Okay, wait, wait, there's something funny about that.

I lived with my mother before, I succeeded.

Only me and him. My father went to buy a packet of cigarettes.

And he never returned.

I know how Murray feels.

I've been home for as long as I can remember.

I take good care of my mother.

All of those sacrifices, he must really love you.

He really is.

He always tells me to smile and show a happy face.

He says I'm prettier spreading happiness and laughter.

I like it, I like it very much, come here.

Come on, tonight you have to go down.

Come on! Come on!

Okay, we have a big show tonight.

Stay put, we will be back soon.

That's great Arthur.

Thanks. I can't say a word, it makes my day beautiful.

Thank you friend.

You see all this, the light, the show, the audience, all of that stuff,

I'll leave it in a moment to a kid like you.

Hello, Miss. Hey, how are you?

One more day in a crazy city.

You will come back?

You are okay?

I heard about the beating you experienced.

Basic savage

They are just a group of children, just leave them alone.

No, they will take everything from you if you do that.

All crazy things out there.

They are animals.

Hi guys.

You know what.

What is this.

Take.

It is for you.

You have to protect yourself out there.

Otherwise you will be harmed.

Maybe.

Jeez.

It is okay.

Nobody must know.

You can pay me anytime.

You know you're a good girl.

Arthur. Hoyt wants to meet you in his office.

You know what I always think?

No, I do not know.

You call it miniature golf, or just golf for you?

Hello Hoyt.

Gary said you want to see me.

How about comedy? Are you famous?

Not yet, still working on my material.

Do not say. There is a big one. See.

I like you Arthur, many think you're weird, but I like you.

I don't even know why I like you.

But I have a complaint.

Begins to upset me. Kenny Music.

Uh, the person said you disappeared.

Not yet returned the sign.

because I was robbed.

Didn't you hear?

The sign. That is bullshit.

Does not make sense.

Return the sign.

He will go bankrupt, for the sake of Arthur.

I do not know, sorry.

How could I know why nobody did anything?

If you don't return the sign, I have to take it from your salary.

Are we clear?

Look, I'm trying to help you.

Okay, let me tell you something else.

There are men who do not feel comfortable.

Wait for me, wait!

Thanks.

Hi.

This building is bad, huh?

This building is bad, mom.

Yes dear.

That's very bad mom.

Right mom?

This building is bad, right.

Hey.

Hi ma'am. You'll come down later.

Ma'am, why is the letter so important to you?

What do you think he will do? He will help us.

But you already wrote a letter

30 years ago, why would he help us?

Because Thomas Wayne is a good man.

If he knows how we live.

If he saw this place, it would make him sick.

I can't explain him better than that.

Nobody cares mom.

Or me.

Everyone says that my joke is really for a big club.

Hapi, what makes you think you can do that?

What do you mean? / Well ..

Do you want to be a comedian?

Hey, what's your name? Arthur.

Hey Arthur, you're a really great dancer.

Oh, yes.

This.

Happy, are you okay?

Mother, what? / What happened?

I watch war movies.

Shrink it!

Sorry mom.

Glad to see the couple on my show.

I have a wife, we like playing roles.

Yes, yes, very sexy.

My favorite now is

professors and seniors who passed my graduation time.

Yes.

So I did.

I'm a professor at university.

And my wife is senior in my western internal lessons.

I know, I know, you should see it on the Intro.

I don't believe too.

He dumped me on my office watch.

Monday and Wednesday, 3-5, so excuse me, professor Louis.

I can't use my last name at this university,

because they don't employ Jews.

Something that seems outside, for now.

Excuse me Professor Louis, I think I'm in danger of failing in western lessons.

And I just want you to know I'm willing to do anything to graduate.

I said, anything?

He says..

Oh, hey.

You followed me today?

Yes.

I feel you.

I hope you come and rob this place.

I have a gun.

I will come tomorrow.

You're so funny Arthur.

Yes.

You know what, I do comedy.

You should come watch the show when and when.

I can do that.

Yes, you tell me when.

Hm

Wait, please, I like this job.

Arthur, I want to know why you brought a gun to a children's hospital.

This is a tool. Part of my play.

That's bullshit! Nonsense! What kind of clown is carrying a gun?

And Randall told me you tried to buy 38 of him last week.

Randall tell you that? You're crazy, Arthur. And liar.

You're fired!

Next stop Gotham.

I'm telling you he ...

That was a mistake ...

No, thank you.

This...

Very good

He tried to be nice to me.

This.

Anyone bastard?

Something funny, tell us, what's so funny?

I have a condition ...

Stay down, weird!

Please!

Please!

I read he is a man with full makeup.

No, it says mask here

After all, it's good for business.

They have clowns in all newspapers.

Big people with big sentences.

Hey Arthur, I know what happened.

Sorry, man.

It seems unfair. Fired like that.

You really brought a gun to a children's hospital?

What did you do it for?

Is that funny? I guess he knows the trick.

You gonna shoot yourself?

Why don't you ask Randall about that?

Here is his gun.

I still owe you that, yes.

What are you talking about?

Stop talking from your butt.

Oh no.

I forgot to be absent.

And while our city tries to make sense.

4 murders on the subway last week.

we are joined by Thomas Wayne

Look, Thomas Wayne is on TV.

Yes, mom.

They asked him about the subway murder.

Thank you Thomas, I know this is a hard time.

Oh yeah. - Looks like he's a campaign.

There are only 3 words for Wayne Investment.

Good, well educated, though

I do not know them personally.

Like all workers, they are family.

You heard that, I told you ... Shh ...

the anti-rich center in the city.

Almost like the unfortunate townspeople took the side of killing.

Yes, too bad.

That's one of the reasons why I consider running for mayor.

Gotham has lost its way

What about eyewitness reports, the suspect is wearing a clown mask.

That makes sense to me.

What kind of coward does something so cold-blooded

someone hiding behind a mask.

So, they are more fortunate than themselves.

If they are too afraid to show their own faces.

until people like that change for the better

Some of us are

Making things in our lives, always looking at those who haven't

It's nothing, just a clown.

Thank you for coming.

I heard this song on the radio that day.

And that person sings

His name is Clyfield.

Arthur./ This is crazy.

Because it's my clown name.

Until a moment ago.

It's like no one is there

He and I don't know if I'm really real.

Arthur, I have bad news for you.

You did not hear me.

I did not make you

He only asks the same question every week,

How is your work? Do you have negative thoughts?

All I have is negative thoughts.

But you did not hear either.

I said for the rest of my life.

I don't know if I even exist.

But I exist.

People are starting to lose

They cut our funding.

They closed the office next week

The city cuts funding across the council, social services are part of it.

This is the last time we will meet.

how could they?

They don't care about people like you Arthur.

And they really don't care about people like me either.

Sorry Arthur.

I think most women see sex as buying a car.

I can see myself for a long time.

Is that safe?

Can it be relied upon?

Men see themselves as car parks

I want to see this.

Okay, it's finished my time, thank you all so much.

Okay, next from southern Gotham.

from a young age, everything he saw purpose in his life

Is to bring laughter and excitement into this cold, dark world.

I'm ok

Please help me welcome Arthur Fleck.

Hello, nice to be here.

I think..

Who are those kids?

I hated school when I was young.

My mother would say

What do you want to be later?

There is no ma'am.

I will be a comedian.

This is one.

You know, I just thought that day.

Why is everyone ...

I think the person who did it was a hero.

Only one million left.

And buddy, always start from the last event

I will not see you again.

Tonight we have Diana Hunton.

Grant Gordon, and animal expert Hugh Little /

Thank you for watching.

And always remember.

That is life.

Time to wake up. Get up from the bed.

I know it.

Something ... it's important.

I do not think so.

Come on

Thanks.

You will kill me.

Open!

Open the door and you're dead.

Okay.

I'm not mad mom.

I am not angry.

He is an extraordinary person, Hapi.

Very strong person.

He said we shouldn't be together.

He does not care.

I did not tell anyone because

I signed the letter

And anyways we can imagine what people will say about us.

I think the same as you.

What do they say mom

What is your name

I'm Bruce

Get away from that person./ That's okay, I'm a good person

What are you doing? Who are you? / I'm here to meet Mr. Wayne

You shouldn't talk to his son

Why did you give these flowers. No, they aren't real.

This is magic

I'm just trying to make him laugh.

That's not funny, huh

You want me to call the police? / No, please.

My mother's name is Penny.

Penny Fleck, he used to work here, could you please tell Mr. Wayne to meet him?

You are the son.

Yes. Do you know?

I know about that too.

He told me everything.

There is nothing to know.

There is no them.

Your mother is stressed.

She is sick.

Just go.

Before you make a fool of yourself.

Thomas Wayne is my father.

What happened?

Straight to the back door. - I'm doing it.

Is your mother on medication?

When was the last time you talked to him. I don't know.

Mr. Fleck.

Sorry to bother you, I'm Detective Garrity, this is my detective Burke.

We have a few questions for you, but you're not at home.

So, we talked to your mother.

What did you say to him? Did you do this?

What? No, no, I'm just asking him a few questions.

He was hysterical, breathing heavily,

The doctor said he got a stroke.

Sorry to hear about that ...

Like I said, I still have a few questions for you.

This is about the subway murder last week, you heard about them, right?

Yes. That's terrible.

We talked to your boss at Hahas

I heard you got fired for bringing a gun to a children's hospital.

That's a tool, part of my action.

I'm a party clown. Why are you fired?

He said I wasn't funny enough.

Can you imagine that?

If you don't mind.

I have to take care of your mother.

Your boss also gave us one of your cards.

What's your condition, laughing

You ... what kind of clown act.

Action clown? / Yes.

It means party action.

What do you think?

That's the only way out.

I made coffee.

Do you want some?

So, that night I told my son Billy, you know the new one.

I said trash can where Billy was, and he said I wasn't joking, and he said

So where do we get our trash?

And finally, in a world that everyone thinks can do my work.

We have video tapes from the comedy club, this is the guy

thought he could keep laughing and somehow that made him funny.

Look at this joke.

Jeez.

My mom always says

What do you want to be?

No ma'am, I'll be a comedian.

You have to hear your mother.

And one more Bobby, look at another one, I like this guy.

That's funny, when I was little

And tell people I'll be a comedian.

Everyone laughed at me, nobody laughed now.

You can say that again, man.

OK.

I have a good program for you tonight.

So stay here ...

And new music for enthusiasm ...

Tell Mr. Wayne, this is what was said, this whole system.

Wayne recently announced his candidacy for mayor

will attend the event.

You might remember Thomas Wayne who first mentioned Gotham citizens

as a problem, and today

He offered help with political means.

I will say there is something wrong with those people,

I'm here to help them.

I will lift them out of poverty, make their lives better,

that's why I nominate.

Maybe it's not realized, but I'm their only hope.

Can I help a friend?

That hurts to say.

Do you want an autograph or what?

What did he ever do to you?

Penny Fleck is my mother.

Gosh,

You came to my house yesterday.

Yes, sorry I just came.

But my mother told me everything.

And I have to talk to you. / I'm not your father.

What is wrong with you?

Look at us.

I'm sure you're my father. That's impossible.

Because you were adopted, and I didn't sleep with your mother.

I wasn't adopted. Oh, God, he never told you?

Tell me what?

Your mother adopted you when she worked for us.

That is not true.

Why did you say that? / Because he was arrested for robbing a hospital

When you were little. I don't need you to tell lies.

I know it looks strange.

I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable, I don't know why people are so rude.

I don't know why you are, I don't know why I think of you.

I'm just asking for a little courtesy.

What's with you people?

You see what you made for my mother? / She's crazy.

Do you think this is funny?

This is me.

You touch my son again, I'll kill you.

This is a message for Arthur Fleck.

My name is Sherly Woods, I work at the Murray Franklin Show.

I don't know if you're aware, but Murray played your standup on a recent show.

And we get a lot of responses from our audience.

Murray told you to give you a phone and see if you ...

Who is this?

Hello hi, this is Sherly Woods, I'm the broker show for Murray Franklyn.

Is this Arthur?

Yes.

Hi Arthur, like I said, we get a lot of calls about your standup.

And Murray wants you to come on stage.

Murray wants me on the Franklin Show?

Yes, isn't that good? He wants to talk to you about your actions.

That sounds good to you?

This sounds good.

Can we prepare the current date?

Can you do it next Thursday?

Sorry about that, man.

It was put in the basement, you talked about 30 years ago, so

Can I ask? / What?

How can someone end here?

Are they all people who commit crimes?

Oh yes, some.

Some are just crazy and dangerous ..

They don't know where to go, don't know what to do, you know.

I hear you, bro.

Sometimes I don't know what to do.

Last time I beat up people

I thought I'd get in trouble, but no.

What is that?

I made something

I did bad things.

I think it's hard to do it.

Time consuming

Hey listen,

I'm just an administrative assistant here.

All I do is report files.

I don't know what to say to you.

But you have to meet someone.

Social services, things like that.

Okay, here it is. Fleck

Diagnosis

By Benjamin

Oh, the patient is suffering

Delusional psychosis

And nationalistic personality

Found guilty of harm

own child.

It says here your mother.

Says I can't reveal this note, you know.

If I get caught, I'll get in trouble.

Look, if you want to take your mother's file,

I can't take this off without a social service permit okay

Sorry.

We already checked it.

You're adopted, there's a letter here.

Thomas said I fabricated it.

So that is our secret.

He also said nothing

when one of his girlfriends repeatedly tortured

His adopted son.

And beat you up.

Penny, your son was found tied to a radiator.

In your apartment.

There were many bruises all over his body and severe trauma to his head.

Whenever he hears it crying.

He has always been a sad child.

What are you doing here?

You're in the wrong apartment.

Your name is Arthur right?

I want you to leave.

My little girl sleeps in the other room.

Leave it

I always hate that name.

You used to tell me.

Am I laughing that's my condition?

And something is wrong with me.

That's the real me.

What is my lie.

You're funny

You make me laugh.

I always thought my life was a tragedy.

But now I realize, this is a joke.

Funny actor, he has a new film called American Playboy

Airing this week around the country, please welcome the show's good friend, Mr. Ethan Jake

Nice to meet you, Ethan.

Hi Murray, thank you for accepting me.

Hi Murray, thank you very much for accepting me on the show.

This has become my dream.

Hi Murray.

Sorry, what is that?

That's funny Murray.

I'm a comedian too.

Do you want to hear a joke?

Yes? Hug you?

Okay.

Tok ... knock ...

Tok Tok.

Come.

Hey Arthur.

- How are you? - Oh hi you guys.

Please come in. / You have a new program

- Yes. - You must have gone to a rally at the City Hall.

I hear it's gonna be crazy. -That today?

Yes, what's with the makeup?

My mother died, it's been a week

Right, we heard.

That's why we came, thought you could get some entertainment

You're sad.

I feel good.

I stopped taking my medicine, I feel much better now.

Oh, okay, good for you.

So hey listen, I don't know if you've heard

But the police came to the shop

Talk to everyone and

About the subway murder. - Yes. They didn't talk to me.

That's because the test is an ordinary size person.

If you are a dwarf, you are already in prison.

By the way um ... Hoyt said

They talk to you and

Now looking for me, I just want to know what you said

Make sure our stories match.

I say this, you are my friend

I understand what you mean. Thank you, thank you very much, I just want ...

No!

Do not!

Why did you do it?

He asked for it himself.

You will ride tonight.

This is crazy, I'm on television.

You're crazy Arthur.

What?

It's okay Gary, you can go.

I will not hurt you.

Don't look, just leave.

Hey Arthur.

Arthur can you open the door

Sorry.

Gary.

You're kind to me.

Come on!

Police!

Get down

Back off! Back off!

Violence in the crowd tonight became serious.

stable conditions in the city of Gotham.

We're broadcasting live now with reporter Courtney Weathers ...

Hi, hi. / Mr. Franklin.

Come on Gene, that's bullshit.

Thank you, Murray.

I feel like I know you.

I am your fan forever.

What's wrong with his face?

Does that mean you're part of the protest?

No, I don't believe that.

I don't believe anything.

Sorry for me ...

For your acting, didn't you hear what happened? There was a clown killed.

No, I don't.

You see this, people will go crazy.

This is just a statement.

Gene, this will work, this will work.

We will enter.

Thank you, Murray.

Some rules, no condemnation, no racism, we do clean shows.

Okay? / You came in after Dr. Sal. / I like Dr. Sal.

Someone's coming to get you, okay?

Nice.

Good luck. Thank you, Murray.

One small thing. - Yes. - When you take me out.

Can you introduce me as a Joker?

What's with your real name? That's what you called me on the show

Joker You remember?

What is that? / I don't know.

If you say that, kid, joker is good.

Thank you, Murray.

I tried to know, but I wasn't sure my wife would let me.

I got my next place.

I'm sure this person can use the bathroom.

Okay, we show the clip one more time.

So please welcome, Joker.

Are you OK, doctor?

I'm quite interested.

You are okay?

Yes.

This is what I imagined.

That makes him one of us.

So can you tell me about ...

When we talked earlier, you mentioned this was not a political statement, is it true?

Right murray, I'm not political

I'm just trying to make people laugh.

So you are a comedian

You're working on new material, you want to tell a joke?

Yes

Joke book

Take it easy, choose the sentence.

Okay, here's one.

Tok Tok

And you have to see that?

I want to make it right.

Tok Tok./Who is there?

This is the police ma'am.

Your son got hit by a drunk driver. He died.

No, no, you can't be funny about that. - Yeah, that

It's not funny Arthur, it's not a joke that we do on shows.

OK sorry

It's just, you know ... it's a hard week, murray

Since me

Killing wallstreet people

Okay, I'm waiting for the sentence

There is no sentence

No joke

You're serious

You say you killed 3 young people on the subway?

And why do we have to trust you?

I have nothing to lose

And that again

My life is just comedy

Let me get this straight, you think killing people is funny?

I'm tired of pretending it's not

Comedy is subjective Murray, and you know what they say?

All of you, the system knows a lot

You decide what is right or wrong in the same way

You decide what's funny or not

Okay, I think I understand you

Doing this gesture becomes a symbol

Come on Murray, do I look like a clown that will make a move?

I killed them because they were bad.

Everyone's bad these days, enough to make people crazy

Okay, so you're crazy, is that your defense for killing 3 young children?

No.

They could not carry the grave to save their lives.

Why is everyone so sad about them

If I die on the sidewalk, you will walk past me

I pass by you every day, you don't pay attention to me, but because this person is Thomas Wayne

crying for them on tv

Do you have a problem with Thomas Wayne? Yes, I do.

Have you seen anything out there, Murray?

Have you ever really left the studio?

Everyone screamed and screamed at each other

Nobody is civilized anymore

Nobody thinks what it's like to be the other man.

They think of people like Thomas Wayne

have you ever felt like someone?

To be someone they are not.

They think we will just sit there

And accept it like a good child.

We werewolf and went wild

You're done. I mean, that's a lot of self-pity Arthur

You sound like making an excuse to kill all three young people.

Not everyone, and I tell you, not everyone is wrong

You're bad Murray. / Me?

I'm bad? Oh yeah, how am I bad?

You

Invited me to the show

You just want to make jokes against me

Like all of them. - You're not the first friend

See what happens because of what you did?

Like what, there's a commotion out there.

Two cops are critical and you're laughing

You laugh, someone was killed today because of what you did.

How about a joke again. / I think that's enough of your joke.

When you think ... I don't think so.

When you attack donors in society, you will be ostracized

- At the police station. - I say what you deserve

Good night and always remember

That..

A quick glance at the show, host Murray Franklin was shot

As a joker ...

I doubt

I know it.

You get what you deserve

This..

joke

You want to tell me

No

You will not understand.
