Breaking Down Joker is a fascinating read. Sean Redmond has collected an array of exciting young scholars, who have each brought a unique perspective to one of the most innovative and controversial films of the 21st Century. From a range of disciplinary approaches, this collection insightfully considers Joker as not merely a complex film, but as a watershed cultural moment. No stone is left unturned as Breaking Down Joker unpacks themes as diverse as liminality, neoliberal political views, urban environments, toxic masculinity, and mental health care deficiencies. This collection is a must for anyone serious about cinema and cultural criticism. Jeffrey A. Brown, Professor & Chair, Bowling Green State University, USA
