* Hildur Guðnadóttir’s Oscar-winning score for Joker (2019) is full of texture and dark colours. But it does more than just create atmosphere - her music acts as another version of the Joker’s character, heard in the form of a solo cello or a Halldorophone, an electro-acoustic version of a cello with a set of resonating strings. This is particularly true in the haunting bathroom dance. In this scene, Todd Philipp’s direction, Joaquin Phoenix’s acting and Guðnadóttir’s score all come together seamlessly to create a sequence that perfectly captures the transformation of Arthur into the Joker.
