When Cullen smears mud on Joker’s face so he is less visible in the night sky, Joker suddenly becomes the same as Cullen. Joker’s black face rejects the Vaudeville stereotypes of the black buffoon and instead shows the audience that sometimes being white comes with disadvantages. As the scene progresses, the two men try to break into a building through a roof.…

    Carol Reed’s 1949 film, The Third Man, is a cinematic masterpiece that dives deep into the layers of what it means to be human. The story takes place in post war Vienna, where Joseph Cotton’s character, Holly Martins, travels to reconnect with his longtime pal, Harry Lime, played by Orson Welles (www.imdb.com). Holly arrives in Vienna only to find that his pal Harry is presumed dead – but something about his death just doesn’t add up. The story follows Holly on a journey for the truth while the structural aspect provides an abstract reflection of the struggle between good vs. evil.

Last minute of the scene became violent as Batman lost his patience, the camera follows Batman as he dragged Joker across the table and pushed him against the wall, the camera is shaking in order to illustrate Batman’s anger and frustration, as well as making us feel like we are part of the interrogation. Through these camera shots we now know that Joker is not only proficient at understanding human nature, but also using it to manipulate and dominate the…
