  The scene where Joker is in the elevator, completely serious and a man next to him is insane and writhing around will always stay with me

  &quot;I&apos;ve never heard him cry, he was always such a happy boy.&quot;<br><br>The haunting revelation that this is because his whole life, Arthur could only express his pain and sadness through laughter.

  Honestly, I only hear people talk about the Murray scene. But the scene that got me the most was the reveal with Sophie. He breaks into her apartment, and you think &quot;okay, they are together so maybe its not that creepy.&quot; and then she walks in and screams. She only knows him from the hallway earlier in the film. She doesn&apos;t even really know his name. IT then flashes to all the scenes we&apos;ve seen her in, revealing that she wasn&apos;t there. Only Arthur.

  &quot;Scene cuts to Arthur stomping on a body&quot;<br><br>I thought that was just him stomping on trash because he was angry.

  &quot;I&apos;ve never heard him cry, he was always such a happy boy.&quot; <br> <br>And the sad truth is, he wanted to cry, he needed to cry, but in the end, all he could do was unwillingly laugh. Just try to imagine that for a second..

  &quot;Its all random, he never meant to start a rebellion.&quot;<br>I think the area 51 one guy who started it all met his match.

  I think the final scene was the biggest joke of all because earlier in the movie, the city had cut funding for the meds &amp; social support he was receiving. He was playing by the rules, working, generally trying to do good but they cut him off. It wasn&apos;t until he snapped &amp; started killing people &amp; wreaking havoc on the city that they gave him back the meds and services again.

  His delivery of the line &quot;you get what you F*cking deserve!&quot; Still gives me chills. The way he delivers most of his lines is fantastic.

  I loved the symbolism of him going up the stairs after losing everything, like it only got harder. Then later on when he is free of everything, he starts to dance down the stairs. Showing that it’s a lot easier when you are freed
