297: Present Tense- JOKER Provokes, Phillips and Phoenix Progress, and Scorsese Draws a Line in the Sand

We Like Movies

We keep our recent streak of passionate but level-headed disagreement rolling with a spirited discussion about Todd Phillips’s JOKER- a film that is either a dangerous and controversial call to violent action or merely a dark and disposable comic book novelty. Or maybe it’s both. Or maybe it’s neither! Give it some thought, give us a listen, and don’t forget to sound off in the comments section. Viva la discourse! (And don’t forget, WLM is a podcast for people who have seen the films. We spoil early. We spoil often. Fair warns.) Email: [e-mail] Donate: Thanks!
