REVIEW: Joker Folie à Deux

I had the honor of attending the premiere of "Joker: Folie à Deux" at the 81st Venice Film Festival on September 4th, 2024. Despite the growing hype around the movie, I attended the premiere with no expectations. While the first trailer revealed incredible cinematography and set the stage for an intriguing story, the second one didn't add much or show enough to drastically change my expectations. So, I decided to sit through the whole screening and let the images speak for themselves.
It's important to mention that I wasn't among the detractors of the first movie; I liked it, and it's a good film. I loved how it depicted the story of someone with mental health issues from an inner perspective, allowing the audience not to justify but to understand the main character's different point of view. The fact that it coincides with the iconic name of "Joker" was a bonus for me. In my opinion, the story could stand on its own without the burden of that name. But to be completely honest, I still recall leaving the cinema thinking about a few scenes that felt more like "viral marketing material" than functional parts of the movie itself. However, I guess they worked in the end, as those scenes helped the first movie win at Venice that year and earned it 11 nominations and 2 wins at the Academy Awards. I still think it was a bit overrated.
Anyway, let's jump to the present. As I did with "A Star is Born" and "House of Gucci," I'm going to divide this review into two parts: a spoiler-free one and one where I openly discuss all the scenes. Feel free to continue reading and skip the second part if you wish. Also, I’m not going to give it a score, as I feel it's too reductive. In the meantime, thank you for reading.
Joker: Folie à Deux - Spoiler-Free Review
Let's start with the elephant in the room: "Joker: Folie à Deux" is a good movie with some problems. There is no way to sugarcoat it. The film has a very solid structure, and the original idea works, but it doesn’t commit to its own premises. The musical numbers are incredible, but alas, too short. There are no huge or epic choreographies like in "La La Land," even though the set design allows for it. The story is not as dark as the first one, but the dark vibes remain. The musical numbers were honestly my favorite part, but I genuinely wished they lasted longer. Just like I wished Lady Gaga had more screen time. Given the marketing campaign focused so heavily on both leads, I expected more scenes centered around her, but maybe that’s just my fan side talking.
Gaga's acting is incredible. She has improved a lot since "House of Gucci" even though she doesn’t really have too many parts to stand out for long. I won’t even comment her vocal skills on this movie. Each song made me laugh thinking about her claims of “unlearning” how to sing. She sings effortlessly, and it's easy to see why she was chosen for this role.
Many scenes in the movie are simply breathtaking. The setup, the set design, the lighting. Each frame of this movie feels like a painting. For example, the song that Lady Gaga wrote for the movie (the "waltz") blends seamlessly and I hope it will get so much recognition in the upcoming awards season, even thought it doesn’t last too long.
Gaga and Joaquin are so magical together that I wished they had a joint single to promote, like "Shallow," to promote their chemistry together outside the movie. Their confidence on screen is incredible, and the fact that I wanted much more from this movie still proves how good the premises are.
I absolutely agree with the reviews that call it "daring." The musical aspect was fundamental and key to the movie. I am clearly not one of those who gets the “ick” when characters start singing in musicals, but I did feel that some transitions were less smooth than others. This might indeed rub those viewers who dislike sudden musical interludes the wrong way, even though most songs blend perfectly into the story and feel totally natural. The movie is in fact NOT a proper musical, in fact all the “dancing” scenes are put in a context that it doesn’t feel out of place with the scene.
I loved how each song coincided with his internal emotional earthquakes. There's one song in particular, sung by Joaquin, that old Gaga fans will instantly recognize and give them the biggest smile. 
Joaquin is incredible. Even though the movie has all those problems, he manages to land on his feet and deliver a breathtaking performance, worthy of the first movie. His Oscar nomination is assured, and I really hope Gaga's is as well, although it’s going to be tough given the strong female contenders this year.
Maybe I overhyped myself dreaming of huge Chazelle-style numbers and another "Shallow" moment that never arrived, but nonetheless, the whole movie is good and worth watching. Joaquin is amazing, and Lady Gaga is undoubtedly on the right path to her next great role.
Joker: Folie à Deux - Spoiler Review
In this version of the review, I’m going to talk about the things I liked and didn’t like, still trying not to spoil the whole movie in the process.
The main problem with the movie is the same that "House of Gucci" had; at some point, Lady Gaga isn’t as present as before. Even though this decision makes sense for plot reasons, it was a bit disappointing to see her always (and literally) in the background. She has to be there since most of the movie revolves around the courtroom, but I still wished they interacted more in the second half. It makes sense that "The Joker" returns as the main and pivotal part of the story in the final act of the movie, but I still wish they'd emphasized the "Folie à Deux" aspect more. The character of Lee influences the whole movie and the decisions Joker makes, but still, if they had focused more on that dynamic, I’m sure the ending would feel less like a series of events and more like a genuine conclusion. I don’t know how fans of the comics will react seeing the roles of Joker and Gaga swapped, it’s a different take that I really enjoyed even though it didn’t end up with the explosive ending that it promises.
I’m not sure why they didn’t include the leaked performance of "That's Entertainment" that Gaga does on the Joker steps. Maybe they felt there were too many musical numbers? But then why not remove one or two songs and make the remaining ones last longer?
I’m not upset about how that scene turned out, anyways, I just wonder how it could have been if they had included the one we saw.
My favorite performance in the movie was undoubtedly the song Gaga performs on the piano while Joker does a tap dance. To me, that makes the whole movie worth watching. She sings so well that I wish that scene lasted two hours, just like the scene where Joaquin started singing "Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered," my heart stopped for a minute, and I was thrown back to the "Cheek to Cheek" era with little shivers all over my body.
I hope DC fans and Little Monsters will enjoy the movie anyways, but it’s surely gonna stir many mixed reactions. 

“That’s all folks!”

Lady Gaga Graces The Cover of Vogue & Announces New Album

Lady Gaga is gracing the cover of Vogue's October US issue. The artist announced the news with a new photoshoot and a lengthy interview, where she revealed the release month of her new untitled album, discussed her role in “Joker: Folie à Deux,” and spoke openly for the first time about her relationship with her fiancé, Michael Polansky.

You can read quotes from the interview below.
Talking about her new album:
  “There’s a lot of pain associated with this adventure,” she says, “and when I start to explore that pain, it can bring out another side to my artistry. When I’m here at this studio, I’m relaxed and I am able to face my demons and what’s remarkable is…that’s the music. I’m able to hear it back.”

In a following statement, Vogue revealed that Lady Gaga’s new album will be released in February 2025, with the first single expected in October 2023.

Talking about her love for her peers:
Charli XCX, Chappell Roan, Billie Eilish. “I mean, I really love them. I go on the internet and, like, cry. And I love Taylor Swift too. And Kesha. I watch it all, and I’m like: Yup. Go! Just Go.” Here, her voice cracks and her eyes well up with tears. “I’m not only cheering them on, I want them to know that my heart is in it with them. And I want them all to feel really happy.”

Talking about how she met her fiancé:
“My mom met him, and she said to me, ‘I think I just met your husband,’ and I said, ‘I’m not ready to meet my husband!’ I could never have imagined that my mom…found the most perfect person for me?” Flash forward to December 2019: Parker’s 40th birthday party at his house in Los Angeles where Stevie Nicks performed. “I got invited, and I said, ‘I wonder if Michael is going to be there,’ and my mom said yes, and so I went to the party, and I kept asking for him, and he finally came over to me, and we talked for three hours. We had the most amazing conversation.” Polansky tells me that he didn’t make it three steps into the party before someone told him that Lady Gaga was looking for him.

About the difficulties with her previous album:
“I think what I want my fans to know is that I’m just, like, so happy. I’m healthy. I feel like the last time they heard from me—in this way—was Chromatica, and that album was about an absolutely horrible time for me with my mental health. I was in a really dark place. I struggled for, like, many years before that. But everything started to change. Because I had a real friend who saw the ways in which I was unhappy and why. And he wasn’t afraid to truly hold my hand. And get to know me. On a very deep level.”

Talking about the waltz she wrote for “Joker: Folie à Deux”:
“I wrote a waltz for the movie,” says Gaga. “And I had a live piano player, Alex Smith, whom I asked to be with me for my scenes. There are moments in the film where I’m playing an adult woman who sings like a little girl. And she’s moving through the world with this kind of immaturity, which I thought was interesting.”

On how she worked on her role of Harley Quinn:
“Harley Quinn is a character people know from the ether of pop culture. I had a different experience creating her, namely my experience with mania and chaos inside—for me, it creates a quietness. Sometimes women are labeled as these overly emotional creatures and when we are overwhelmed we are erratic or unhinged. But I wonder if when things become so broken from reality, when we get pushed too far in life, what if it makes you…quiet?”

Her voice cracks again, and she takes a moment. “I would say that I worked from a sense-memory perspective: What does it feel like to walk through the world and be…braced, in an intense way? And what happens when you cover up all of the complexities beneath the surface?”

How her fiancé convinced her to make a new pop record:
“Michael is the person who told me to make a new pop record. He was like, ‘Babe. I love you. You need to make pop music.’” Says Polansky: “Like anyone would do for the person they love, I encouraged her to lean into the joy of it. On the Chromatica tour, I saw a fire in her; I wanted to help her keep that alive all the time and just start making music that made her happy.”

On how she treats Lady Gaga as a “persona”:
“Man.” She shakes her head. “That’s a big question.” She takes a deep breath. “You know it’s not a persona. It’s not. I am all of these things. The person that I am when I’m onstage in front of 85,000 people? That is also me. That’s like one of the freedoms of my relationship with Michael. It feels really nice to have someone value you whether there’s 85,000 people watching or…the dogs. To see the whole you. And Lady Gaga is the whole me.”

“There was a time in my career when I…. Look….”—she cocks an eyebrow and slips into a self-mocking tone—“where I spoke in an accent in interviews or told lies, but I was performing. Now, it’s a much more palatable mixture of authenticity and imagination. I feel like the world, to a fault, operates in these binaries: You’re either real or you’re fake; you’re authentic or you’re shallow. But for me, I played a lot with artifice. I was fascinated with artifice, really, truly fascinated with it as an artistic tool. I still am. But my relationship to myself as an artist now is more empowered: This is me. This. Is. Me. It’s too complicated to split yourself in two and have to turn it off and on. It’s so much more empowering to be like, I’m a woman, and I’m super complex.”

'Joker' Director Reveals New Details About 'Folie à Deux'

In a new interview with Variety, “Joker: Folie à Deux” director Todd Phillips revealed some new information about the upcoming film starring Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga. 
Phoenix stars as Arthur Fleck, the man behind the Joker alter ego, and Gaga stars as Harleen “Lee” Quinzel, a patient in the mental hospital Arthur is held at the start of the movie. 
Phillips said the goal of the movie is to make it feel like it was “made by crazy people,” which is evident from what little information is available. 
He details how the movie begins: It kicks off with a “Looney Tunes”-inspired cartoon before showing “prison riots, courtroom faceoffs and a variety-show sequence” that starts with Phoenix and Gaga as a homicidal Sonny & Cher. 

In terms of the characterization of Harley Quinn, Phillips said he wanted her to be manipulative and amoral, but also more grounded. 
“The high voice, that accent, the gum-chewing and all that sort of sassy stuff that’s in the comics, we stripped that away,” Phillips says. “We wanted her to fit into this world of Gotham that we created from the first movie.”
Gaga spoke to Variety about Phillip’s ambition to outdo 2019’s “Joker.” 
“Todd took a very big swing with this whole concept and with the script, giving the sequel to ‘Joker’ this audacity and complexity,” Gaga said. “There’s music, there’s dance, it’s a drama, it’s also a courtroom drama, it’s a comedy, it’s happy, it’s sad. It’s a testament to [Todd] as a director, that he would rather be creative than just tell a traditional story of love.”
Because they sang live as opposed to using a pre-recorded track, Phillips said he wanted Gaga and Phoenix to capture a rawer, more unstable sound than they’re used to performing, in an attempt to strike a balance between euphoria and despair. 
 
 
“We asked ourselves what would need to be true for two people to just break into song in the middle of a conversation?” Gaga said. “Where does the music come from when no one can hear it but the characters? Neither Arthur nor Lee are professional singers, and they shouldn’t sound like they are.”
So far, there are three confirmed songs that Phoenix and Gaga perform in the film: “Get Happy” by Judy Garland, “For Once In My Life” by Stevie Wonder and “That’s Life” by Frank Sinatra. It has not been officially confirmed if Gaga contributes original music to the film’s soundtrack. 
While the film makes use of music, Phillips said he’s reluctant to call it a musical because, “Most of the music in the movie is really just dialogue.”  
“Joker: Folie à Deux" will premiere in theaters on Oct. 4, 2024.

Lady Gaga Teases New Music and Debuts Black Hairstyle

It is unclear whether the collaboration would appear on Gaga's or Bruno's upcoming project. 
In addition to this week's piano snippet, Gaga has debuted three studio snippets to date. The first came in May, at the end of the "GAGA Chromatica Ball" film, aptly called "Dance in the Shadow" by fans. 
The other two snippets, played for Paris fans after her performance at the 2024 Summer Olympics, had a similar heavy, dark sound, most reminiscent of the "Born This Way" era. 
 
 
Despite being a blonde through the eighth leg of her "Jazz & Piano" residency and her Olympics performance, Gaga showed off a darker look on social media this week.
In a post to Instagram, Gaga debuted her new black hair with an oversized, leopard print jacket and bold, white sunglasses. 
 
 
Later, she was seen out and about in Malibu, California, featuring her dark hair and black sunglasses.

Lady Gaga Partakes In Olympic Games Ceremony

Lady Gaga made a spectacular appearance at the Opening Ceremony of the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris, France.
The ceremony took place this Friday, July 26th, and for the first time in the history of the Summer Olympic Games, it was not held in a stadium. The Paris 2024 Opening Ceremony was held in the heart of the city along its main artery, the river Seine. Gaga was part of the ceremony, performing a special version of "Mon truc en plumes" by Zizi Jeanmaire.


The performance was pre-recorded a few hours before the ceremony to avoid technical issues from the heavy rain.
You can rewatch the full performance below.
"I feel so completely grateful to have been asked to open the Paris 2024 this year. I am also humbled to be asked by the Olympics organizing committee to sing such a special French song—a song to honor the French people and their tremendous history of art, music, and theatre. This song was sung by Zizi Jeanmaire, born in Paris a French ballerina, she famously sang “Mon Truc en Plumes” in 1961. The title means “My Thing with Feathers.” And this is not the first time we’ve crossed paths. Zizi starred in Cole Porter’s musical “Anything Goes” which was my first jazz release. Although I am not a French artist, I have always felt a very special connection with French people and singing French music—I wanted nothing more than to create a performance that would warm the heart of France, celebrate French art and music, and on such a momentous occasion remind everyone of one of the most magical cities on earth—Paris. We rented pom poms from Le Lido archive—a real French cabaret theater. We collaborated with Dior to create custom costumes, using naturally molted feathers. I studied French choreography that put a modern twist on a French classic. I rehearsed tirelessly to study a joyful French dance, brushing up on some old skills—I bet you didn’t know I used to dance at a 60’s French party on the lower east side when I was first starting out! I hope you love this performance as much as I do. And to everyone in France, thank you so much for welcoming me to your country to sing in honor of you—it’s a gift I’ll never forget! Congratulations to all the athletes who are competing in this year’s Olympic Games! It is my supreme honor to sing for you and cheer you on!! Watching the Olympic Games always makes me cry! Your talent is unimaginable. Let the games begin!"
The message included pictures from a new photoshoot by Rémi Lamandé, taken on the side of the river where she performed.


After the performance, Lady Gaga was seen leaving her hotel in an incredible green outfit.
