Analyzing the Twisted Psychology of the Joker (Jack Nicholson)

Jack Nicholson’s performance in Batman (1989) successfully captures the indelible, recognizable personality characteristics of the Joker from the comics: He is an eccentric criminal with a sadistic sense of humor. Nicholson, however, amplifies the traits most concerned with ego: A ballooned sense of self, an overt grandiosity, and the inability to tolerate others in the spotlight (i.e., Batman “stealing his press”). This Joker is larger than life – and requires an audience. His bright purple suits are well-coordinated and impeccably tailored. His bold, perfectly set clown makeup draws all eyes to him. When we see Nicholson sashay through the Flugelheim Museum, laughing wickedly beneath his silk beret to Prince’s “Partyman,” we can’t help but respond the way Vicki Vale does: Freeze in disbelief at the spectacle but keep watching. The Joker’s narcissism is closely tied to his propensity for violence, in that violence is the solution or mechanism used to regain power, control, or notoriety. He is playing a game in which he methodically upholds trust and loyalty only as operative tools; connections with people are formed only to retaliate with abuse and emotional terror. Often, this is played out as an enactment– the idea that he can create destabilizing fear in others is, in his mind, performance art. In the Joker’s words, “I make art until someone dies.” For instance, after making a promise to give twenty million dollars away to citizens who attend Gotham City’s 200th Anniversary Parade, the Joker sends his army of goons to amass the event. Atop his ostentatious float (and, again, showcasing), he and his henchmen surprise the city by attacking event-goers with the lethal gas, Smylex, a compound the Joker engineered from a discontinued nerve gas used in war. Though it is unclear how many innocents died, this act of social, widespread terror carries an undeniable similarity to mass violence observed in our current, nonfictional reality. 0:00 THE PERFORMER 2:29 ESSENTIAL TRAITS OF THE JOKER 2:49 1.
