Behind every evil, there's a reason. Behind every broken man is a multitude of cracks, little offenses, smaller and bigger wounds. But what hides behind a maniac who has no mercy for anyone? What triggers the bullets of unscrupulous outbursts of madness and grotesque revenge? Why should you pay attention to how you treat people, as you never know how they would react? Why our parents tend to cause our greatest misfortunes and how the biggest evil of the DC world was brought to the world? Can you really justify wickedness and is there a drop of white in the darkest of black? Great Joaquin Phoenix in Joker.
There
are three stepping stones in your professional life. One is at the
beginning of your career (full of high hopes and 'I want to prove
everybody wrong' drive), the second somewhere in the middle when you are
finally at ease with your duties and your profession blends with your
identity; and the final one, when you don't have to work anymore and
come to the conclusion that retirement might not be a solution at all.
The omnipresent question of work-life balance finally rings true. Can
you be successful in your career not sacrificing your personal life? Is
your career and morale of what you do really worth selling your soul to
the devil and resigning from personal values and aspirations? Is a
relationship worth giving up on your dreams and ambitions, being fragile
as it is in the world of frustrations, one-night-stands, and
infidelity? Difficult questions at any point in your career, proving
that you rarely can kill two birds with one stone and you always have to
choose between and deal with the consequences of these choices. Three
films depicting the reality of contemporary lifestyle, career ladder ups and downs, and
hopes for personal success, which is not for everyone. Lots of food for
thought, enjoy.
