What is Folie À Deux?
Folie À Deux is a shared mental disorder. The illness causes both of them to come into contact with a negative energy in their minds. In this case, the clown “spread” the disease to Harley Quinn, making both of them “couple crazy”. The film's name depicts part of the content, focusing deeply on the toxic relationship between Joker and Harley Quinn.
In the original story, Joker met Dr. Harleen Frances Quinzel in the Arkham Alysum asylum. However, instead of helping Joker treat his illness, she was dragged into a love affair with the dangerous villain, thereby creating the most famous and crazy duo of the DC Cinematic Universe. These two villains have been portrayed by many actors, from Heath Ledger, Jared Leto with Joker, to Margot Robbie with Harley Quinn. However, with the talented duo Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga, the audience has great expectations, especially after the success of part 1 and Joaquin Phoenix's Oscar.
Why music?
According to published information, at least 15 famous songs will be recreated in Joker: Folie À Deux. So why do these two evil people need music?

It seems that only music is enough to express the double madness and delusional disorder of these two evil people, always cheerful and happy on the outside but distorted inside. On the other hand, the use of music has made Joker: Folie À Deux special compared to previous films from DC, as well as fully promoting the talent of Lady Gaga – a singer who is already very famous to the public. However, Joker: Folie À Deux has been rated R in the United States because of the level of violence and hot scenes, it can be seen that the work will not reduce the inherent level of gore even if it changes to the music genre. dramatic.
Joker: Folie À Deux (Vietnamese title: Joker: Folie À Deux Crazy Double) is scheduled to open in theaters on October 4, 2024.
