Folie à Deux on the rooftop is truly stunning, it has been stuck in my head. I kinda hate how it is edited 

Same! It’s so beautiful. I really wish they went with a full waltz routine, and not in slow motion either. It was also way too short.

completely agree, the slowmo works for the start of the scene but then we cut to different shots randomly

-Opening Silly Symphony-esque cartoon giving us the whole overarching theme right out the gate was a ballsy and clever move. 

-Breakout scene. Gaga singing at the top of her lungs while getting yanked from the fence is iconic. 

-Arthur giving homeboy a lil smooch and gaining a friend. He was being exploited by the guards, but the juvenile nature of both of them was weirdly sweet. 

-Gary Puddles' testimony. He's a killer actor that really put everything into perspective and he's also a cutie. 

-The Joker musical sequence. The whole vibe was perfectly horrendous. 

-The end scene. Cementing the fact that he isn't Joker but that evil energy is still in the universe, seeing him for the small man that he was, and having That's Life playing was such a serve. 

This is my Hannah Montanaâ„ąïž lipgloss.

I still have tears in my eyes from the waltz scene. When Arthur was asleep and he dreamed they were dancing together with Harley, and then he wakes up and she's sitting across from him - it's so beautiful. 
And when Lee sings Thats Entertainment - there is so much pain and frustration in her voice. 
Gaga did a wonderful job in that role.

the last Lee scene with dark makeup and the way she is completely under the shadow and overall a really sad scene, that one really struck me.

At the end on the steps. I feel like this is the best Gaga looks throughout the entire movie. Her makeup is incredible. I feel like she has fully become Lee and is ready to stir some sh#% up.

this scene had Lee's best looks in the entire movie and one of Gaga's best acting ever but it was definitely one of the worst scripted scenes ever :fail:

beginning of the movie was great, I also enjoyed the first escape scene with HQ. Most of the scenes with HQ were pretty good imo.

I understand people's complaints about the movie but I genuinely enjoyed watching it so much! There are so many scenes I keep thinking of and can't wait to see again during my 2nd viewing, these are my faves in no order:

- When Lee and Arthur speak for the first time and Lee talks about her burning her parents house down, her dad abusing her etc. Now that we know this was a lie I'm excited to watch this scene back with that new perspective. 

- The entire fire sequence

- The interview sequence ending w Lee stealing the TV

- The close to you scene and especially the part where she tells him she moved into his old building. There's something so sweet but also creepy about this scene. 

- The entire sequence leading up to Arthur firing his lawyer, honestly this is prob my no 1 scene in the entire film.

- Mr. Puddles

- When Lee talks about building a mountain and the reporters are like " what does that even mean?" lol 

-The jail yard scenes had some humorous moments from what I remember

 

edit- I'm realizing how funny this movie actually was even though it's so dark

- Harley's discussion with Arthur's lawyer outside the courtroom. Thought it was Gaga's best moment in terms of acting (+ love Catherine Keener so it was cool seeing them act together)

- If My Friends Could See Me Now and The Joker musical scenes

- Arthur turning to Lee for reassurance after Sophie says the TV movie about him was awful

- The final dialogue between Arthur and Harley at the stairs, the way it was shot made it so atmospheric and moody, it was almost giving 'liminal space' kinda vibes

- The reveal about Harley's backstory

- Close To You's musical number being subverted into a moment of emotional manipulation from Harley's end as opposed to being just a straightforward declaration of love

- The animated sequence at the beginning, specially the design of Shadow Joker, and Nick Cave's rendition of What The World Needs Now

- The World On A String number in front of the mirror, cutting into Harley walking up the stairs to the courthouse

- Joker singing to Harley on the phone at the end

- Gary at the witness stand, that was surprisingly intense emotionally, and the actor did a wonderful job

- The Joker & Harley show scenes, but specially the reprise at the end

The scene where I literally had chills both times I saw the film is the one where Arthur sings "For once in my life". Joaquin was amazing here. A really superb scene

Favorite scene is the fantasy tribunal performance of The Joker. Also loved Lee applying the Harley Quinn makeup while singing World on a String, I've always had a soft spot for scenes when characters go over the edge and turn into full-blown villains (so many great examples in the Batman franchise alone).
