Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga transform Venice into Folie à Deux

The star duo of Joker 2 caused a certain hysteria in the City of Doges, where the film was presented as a world premiere, in official competition for the 81st Mostra.

While the film itself did not particularly impress critics, Joker: Madness for Two at least made an impact on the red carpet of the 81st Venice Film Festival. Last night, Lady Gaga And Joaquin Phoenix made the festival-goers swoon.

They generously walked the carpet, taking selfies with the fans who waited for hours in the scorching heat. The arrival of Lady Gaga provoked a tidal wave of screams and paparazzi. The star wore a spectacular dress – not easy to handle – and then the duo headed into the screening room, where the screams continued to fall from the balconies.

Lady Gaga And Joaquin Phoenixas well as the director Todd Philippswere treated to a huge 11-minute standing ovation as the credits ended. During this time, the duo appeared to be having a deep conversation about the film. But the audience’s loud adulation eventually got the better of them.
