It's far better for a movie like last year's "Saltburn" to grab reviews and audience reaction and proceed into the fall season than to declare its Oscar intentions at the start and then come up short.

One TikToker has taken a deep dive into the film, and thinks that it was Joker rather than Arthur Fleck pulling the strings the whole time. User Society.made.the.joker posted a video, in which she argues that "the Joker is a real persona, and he’s a persona that comes out to protect Arthur."
