“I Know very well in the film. I know very well to Todd [Phillips]. My producer, Emma Tillinger Koskoff, what occurred. I thought a lot about the Joker during the last four years and I decided I didn’t have time for that. It was for personal reasons so I got involved. But I know very well the script. Has real energy and an incredible Joaquin [Phoenix]. You have an extraordinary job.

But, in the end, I don’t know if I gave the next step, which is to develop the character into a comic book character. Develop it to an abstraction. It does not mean that it is bad art, just not for me…

Is different from the movies of superheroes. Very different. As I said before, the films of superheroes are another form of art. They are not easy to do. There are a lot of people with a lot of talent doing a good job and many young people really enjoy. But yes I think they are more like amusement parks, extensions of amusement parks.”

we can Never know how it would have been the vision of Martin Scorsese on this material, while Todd Phillips has done a great job, as evidenced by the win at the Venice film Festival, to the applause of the majority of the criticism and the spectacular public success with ‘Joker’ about to exceed 1,000 million dollars at the box office. Maybe the script got to the right hands…

on the other hand, even if Scorsese would have done so definitely in another way, your style has been captured in ‘Joker’; in particular, ‘Taxi Driver’ and ‘king of comedy’ are two of the biggest influences of Phillips to create the world of the clown that embodies Joaquin Phoenix.
