Continuity mistake: Arthur's cuffed in the police car, but he's uncuffed once laid out on the hood.
Joker (2019)
1 mistake since 11 Apr '21, 22:52
Directed by: Todd Phillips
Starring: Robert De Niro, Joaquin Phoenix, Frances Conroy, Zazie Beetz
Social Worker: They don't give a shit about people like you, Arthur. And they don't give a shit about people like me either.
Trivia: Towards the end while Joker is being transported in the police car, the shot of him through the window is similar to one of Heath Ledger's Joker in The Dark Knight.
Question: Spoiler! The scene at the very end, with Arthur locked up talking to the doctor/social worker - is that meant to be later, after he's been captured again, or is it a flashback to when he was hospitalised before, as was referenced earlier in the movie?

Answer: This is later, as the building appears to be Arkham. He's committed there instead of going to jail based on his insanity. It appears he is laughing about the death of Thomas Wayne, we see a flash of that scene again for a reason.
