The subversive superhero film that played only once at the 2022 Toronto Int’l Film Festival (its subsequent screenings were scuttled after Warner Bros claimed copyright infringement) has finally won theatrical release!
USA, 2022, Vera Drew
Vera Drew’s semi-autobiographical Batman satire—about an aspiring clown (Drew) in a Gotham City where comedy is outlawed—is a gutsy, gonzo work that reimagines the origin story of the Caped Crusader’s nemesis as a trans coming-of-age tale. DCP. 92 min. http://www.alteredinnocence.net/thepeoplesjoker
