The People’s Joker, a.k.a. the best comic book movie of the year and one of 2024's best films hands down, is now available to rent, buy, stream, and cherish on digital media. Wait til August 13th and you’ll be able to buy a Blu-Ray, DVD, and/or VHS tape to add to your collection. I’ve been cheerleading this film relentlessly since I first saw it in theaters four months ago. It pales in comparison to how long the folks who saw it two years ago at TIFF and have been waiting for it to receive any kind of release, while writer/director/editor/lead actress Vera Drew has battled against an ungodly amount of legal troubles and copyright litigation...
The fact it’s now accessible to the public at all is a gigantic achievement all by itself.
A proper review of The People’s Joker will come to The Film Experience on August 13th, to celebrate its physical media release. Right now I’m just here to shout from the rooftops and tell people to see this movie. Being able to see this is a profoundly rare treat that simply wasn’t imaginable a year ago. Go judge it for yourself, and have a great time.
Have you heard the good news about The People’s Joker? What are you planning on seeing this weekend?
