That was me. I just think the frequent statement that this is a "remake" of Taxi Driver misses the point of the movie, since the similarities are mostly on the surface. There are definite parallels to The King of Comedy, but as I thought about it, the one that came to mind as the greatest parallel is American Psycho for several reasons. The social conflict, NY setting (yeah, Gotham, but seriously...) and the time setting. They are told from opposite sides of the social coin, but express the same emotional dilemma. Finally the violent "behavior" of the protagonist and the reliability of the narrative. Arthur Fleck and Patrick Bateman are essentially the same person, born to radically different circumstances.I also agree the person(s) who also compare this movie to American Psycho and Joker goes very much for an ambiguity of what is real and what isn’t. Especially in the third act things are portrayed that border on the fantastical. This is probably as big of an “unreliable narrator” movie as you can get. Has there been any good analysis of what was real and what wasn’t. Here are a few things I questioned. Spoilerized to be safe
