’s turn as the tortured and titular Arthur Fleck. Ultimately, both Phillips and Phoenix returned to Venice tonight to accept the festival’s top honor. Bravo!
Venice has increasingly become an awards season launchpad — three of the last five Best Picture Oscar winners began their career on the Lido. Warner Bros has had good luck out of Venice in past years, but world premiering a comic book movie here was a bold risk. So far, it has paid off. After the awards ceremony, jury member Mary Harron said, “They took a comic book mythology that has been done in so many ways and overturned it and revitalized it for now” with compassion. Harron was also very impressed with “the magnificent performance” of Phoenix.
This is really exciting!
Wow Joker takes top prize at Venice! That’s no joke! That’ll give it serious momentum... previous winners were Roma & Shape of Water
Joker is going to be movie of the decade JokerMovie
congratulations joke JoaquinPhoenix 👏👏👏👏
Very interesting to note that festival rules make it impossible for Joker to win the Golden Lion and Best Actor. Mary Harron seems to imply that, were those rules not in effect, Phoenix would've also clinched a trophy!
