“I’m homesick all the time … I just don’t know where home is. There’s this promise of happiness out there. I know it. I even feel it sometimes. But it’s like chasing the moon - just when I think I have it, it disappears into the horizon.”

— Sarah Addison Allen

JOKER (2019) Bathroom Dance

“This scene is interesting because it’s right after a life-changing cataclysmic event in Arthur’s life, and he’s found this little kind of rundown park bathroom to go in and collect his thoughts and get himself together. What’s interesting in this scene to me is it’s entirely different to me than what we had scripted. In this script, Arthur was to come into the bathroom, hide his gun, wash off his makeup, and staring at himself in the mirror like, what have I done?. And when we got to the set on the day, Joaquin and I just sort of stood around like, this doesn’t really seem very Arthur. Why would Arthur care to hide his gun? And we really kind of tossed around a million ways to just do something different. And it was about an hour into it, and I said, hey, you know, I got this piece of music from Hildur. Hildur Gudnadottir is our composer, and she’d been sending me music throughout, while we were shooting. And I just wanted to play Joaquin that piece of music. And Joaquin just started to dance to the music, and it was just me and him alone in the bathroom. There’s 250 people on the crew waiting outside. And he just starts doing this dance, and we both kind of look at each other and said, OK, that’s the scene. 

It made sense to us because when I first met with Joaquin and we first started talking about Joker, I talked to him that Arthur is one of those people that has music in him. So music and dance became a theme in the film. And this is the second time we see him dancing and it’s a little bit of Joker coming out, a little bit more than the scene before and a little bit less than the next time we see him dance.” — Todd Phillips, the director of JOKER

The worst part of depression is that it doesn't kill your desire to want to do things, it doesn't kill your dreams and what you want in life, it just stops you from doing them
