!! OMG, quote of the day: Director Mary Harron says Joker’s reception reminds her of making American Psycho !!

“It was so ludicrous. I was so familiar with that conversation because that conversation has happened around me, because it happened around American Psycho, and it’s always the same conversation. These attacks always focus on some kind of art movie. They never focus on the extreme violence in mainstream entertainment… Marvel, you can blow up most of Manhattan and people love that. People are very uncomfortable with moral ambiguity. If that same violence had been perpetrated by a person [like John Wick] who was seeking noble revenge, they might feel differently.”

– Director Mary Harron on why her film American Psycho‘s original reception reminds her of Joker.
