How did I compare Joker (2019), a comic book super-villain movie to the King of Comedy (a satirical black comedy), Raging Bull (sports drama) and Taxi Driver (Neo-noir psychological thriller)?

Comment or DM, if something bugs you. #joker #thekingofcomedy #ragingbull #taxidriver #martinscorsese #joaquinphoenix #robertdeniro #videoessay #onlinefilmschool #nofilmschool
