In the documentary I Am Heath Ledger (via Digital Spy) it's revealed that, in order to keep the prosthetics in their place as they got loose when he spoke, Ledger had to lick his makeup to keep it in place, and it ended up becoming part of the Joker's manic personality, as well as his most memorable mannerism.
According to the Joker, his wife (who often mentioned that he needed to "smile more") found herself in trouble with gambling sharks who "carved her face." As the pair couldn't afford surgery, and in an effort to reassure his wife that he didn't care about her scars, the Joker disfigured himself in solidarity.
He taunts his victims with pseudo stories of trauma in order to ramp up the tension before he inevitably gets his laugh by maiming or killing someone. The origin of his scars remains a mystery because the Joker doesn't care about how he got them anymore; he merely cares for the effect they have invoking fear in people.
Occasionally, perhaps, you will see a fully engaged actor lick his or her lips, but it is not a habit or a mannerism that happens repeatedly. Gosling, in this movie, licks his lips constantly. The lip licking is the actor's preparation to say a line, not the character's preparation to speak.
The stage kiss: In this technique, one actor cups the other's face in a way that appears natural and romantic before drawing them in. Right before they connect, the former places their thumb over the latter's lips so that no direct mouth-to-mouth contact occurs.
The psychopathology Arthur exhibits is unclear, preventing diagnosis of psychotic disorder or schizophrenia; the unusual combination of symptoms suggests a complex mix of features of certain personality traits, namely psychopathy and narcissism (he meets DSM-5 criteria for narcissistic personality disorder).
History. According to the Joker, his father was "a drinker and a fiend". Joker claimed that his father gave him his cheek scars due to his being terrified when his father brutally stabbed his mother sadistically with a kitchen knife when she attempted to use to defend herself.
But Joker killed Robin and Batman basically smashes his teeth out and locks him up in Arkham Asylum. It's in the asylum where Joker would have done the 'damaged' tattoo as a message to Batman saying, 'You've damaged me.
The Joker's mask is a means of fabricating a (false) past pain and instilling a present fear. Bane also wears a mask that covers his mouth, but his mask fulfills a purpose outside of terror: Bane's mask provides him with analgesic gas for his immobilizing pain.
What happens if you cut your mouth like the Joker?
A Glasgow smile (also known as a Chelsea smile, or a Glasgow, Smiley, Huyton, A buck 50 or Cheshire grin) is a wound caused by making a cut from the corners of a victim's mouth up to the ears, leaving a scar in the shape of a smile.
A fan asked Ayer on Twitter about the strange plot hole that Joker's teeth are at the center of. Batman only knocked out Joker's teeth after the Clown Prince of Crime murdered Robin. He has the resulting grill while he's locked in Arkham Asylum, the place he'd first meet Harleen Quinzel.
The make up is so white it makes clean teeth look yellow and nasty. So I firmly believe the way he's drawn is on purpose. They know that his teeth would appear yellow and grimy under all that makeup in real life, so he's drawn that way.
Director Todd Phillips considered the character's body size as one way to represent his vulnerability. It is important to emphasize that unlike most people who diet to lose weight or who develop an eating disorder, Phoenix's weight loss was intended for the short amount of time it took to shoot the movie.
The comics series The Joker: The Man Who Stopped Laughing features Batman's nemesis get pregnant after a curse is placed on him, Daily Mail reported. Eventually, the Joker "vomits a sort of brown goo" that transforms first into a baby boy and then into a mini version of himself.
Origins. When the Joker became obsessing over destroying the Bat-Family, he decided to arrange for his face to be surgically removed. According to the Joker, he did this to symbolize how even without his, "Mask" he was still the joker where-as Batman's Robins and Bat-Girls' identities were only mask-deep.
Everyone knows Harley Quinn as the Jokers' girl, but how did she become Harley Quinn? Personality Disorder, specifically, Histrionic Personality Disorder plays a key part in Harley Quinn's life.
Later, Arthur goes to Arkham State Hospital and steals his mother's records, and finds out that he was in fact adopted, and that Thomas Wayne is not his father and that Penny is not his true mother.
Your lips should be soft, supple and, well, kissable — not slimy or rough. You may want to “exfoliate” some of the dead skin cells off your lips. After applying some lip balm or even just water, gently rub your lips with an old toothbrush.
So when you meet someone new and notice his eyes, he's actually looking at your lips. A study from Manchester University in the UK shows that in the first 10 seconds of meeting a woman, a man spends about half that time on average checking out her lips. Even longer if she's wearing lipstick.
When a guy kisses you on your lips , it can mean a variety of things depending on the context and the relationship between the two of you . It could be a sign of affection , desire , or even love . It can also be a way for him to express his feelings and deepen the emotional connection between you .
