The actor of Rachel tried to look away like that and a little fun fact is that she wasn't supposed to do that. Her actor was legit scared lmao, but it all worked out

It wasn't Rachel, the character, freezing. It was the actress, Maggie Gyllenhaal. It was the first time she saw Heath in the makeup and he legitimately freaked her out with his acting.

The Dark Knight is phenomenal, so many scenes Enigma can break down because the acting is so spot on and authentic

And if you look closely you'll see that Joker has a knife, this implies that he is holding a weapon

I'm addicted to these now.

Imagine being an extra and witnessing all of this go down. There should be a realization that you’re literally witnessing cinema history.

"Now I'm always smiling" Immediately gets gut punched

Ah Rachel. Friendzoning until she really needs him.

*Me trying to do body language* as you can see their eyes are closed, this shows that their ether blinking or sleeping

This perfectly sums up The Joker as a character: “perfectly willing to mess up his own plans: if he thinks it will be funny”

In this scene, we see Batman punches the Joker. This is most likely because Batman wants to hurt him.

apparently the actress for Rachel wasn't expecting Heath to get close and grab her like that, so she was probably actually trying to get away from him, or something like that...

The man who challenges the joker at the beginning of the scene, the one that reminds him of his father, is played by United States Senator Patrick Leahy. Leahy has done cameos in 6 Batman films.

I just heard that in this scene Maggie Gyllenhaal was actually scared while doing the scene which is why she couldn’t look at him

Batman: let her go Joker: and I took that personally

When Joker is holding Rachel and says take off your mask to Batman, after he says that Rachel shakes her head by telling Batman not to do it

“Then you’re gonna love me.” That line always has me rolling 😂

Look at the way their chest is moving. Believe it or not, this is actually because they have to breathe. Humans actually rely on a steady stream of oxygen to keep their cells alive. Fascinating.

I just love this analysis stuff so much, and I didn’t know that the Dark Knight movie was this crazy.

You've become a better movie reviewer than most other movie reviewers, looking directly at the actor's performance & how well they pull it off, plus telling about tiny details like the direction of the crowd's feet; I'd never notice that.

Love watching you review the dark knight. I’ve watched them all so far. Keep it up. I’m actually learning more about body language than I already di

That's pretty amazing to analyst her acting body language when she was actually scared of Heath Ledger's make up since it was the first time most of the main actors got to see him in make up as the Joker.

The way you located the theme light to cut your face in half is like a tribute to Harvey

Heath Ledgers acting was so good it brought real fear into everyone

Marvelous, a well done analysis. Can we get the second "how I got these scars" video from the scene with the mob guys? Another note, not everyone catches, is the use of the sound. The wine of audio sounds like a machine winding up, it's in most of the high tension scenes with the Joker. A fantastic film.

Every time I see this scene now, I’m constantly reminded of something that someone else had pointed out - after Batman jumps out the window to save Rachel, what exactly happens to everyone one else back at the party, where Joker and his minions are?

He makes the scenes 100x better by pointing these things out

I like when Rachel tenses her shoulders to protect herself when joker walks around her and then quickly turns her head. You could feel her fear.

It'd great if in the future you could do an analysis of the Governor

Loving the English mug. My respect for you has sky rocketed

Love the rotating camera angles

I literally love these Heath Ledger’s Joker scene analysis. As a person with autism, this is very helpful for me to at least learn body language manually, since it’s not automatic for me. I’ve started trying to dissect other scenes from some of my other favorite shows, like The Flash for instance. Trying to see what they’re bodies and faces are saying. For example, in season 7 ep 6 of the series-the last one I’ve seen as of writing this-Barry Allen makes a certain (micro?) expression when the Speed Force and Iris walk away, after the Speed Force (who looks like Barry’s deceased mother) is invited by Iris to stay at their house. My guess as to why he makes this face is that, judging by the other confusing vibes the SP gave off, I’d say he’s somewhat suspicious of her/it. Or maybe Barry is actually disgruntled by the physical form the SP is in, despite saying otherwise. Or both, but I’m not sure. Maybe you might review the scene? This aspie girl is desperate to figure out how to read body language, especially from her special interest! Lol 😅💙💙

Very good video! I can see how much effort you put into these that even though I’ve watched this money almost religiously I still learn something new!

I laughed every time I hear the joker say " you must be Harvey's squeeze"

When Batman told joker to let her go, he actually meant it because he wanted Rachel out of that situation and he knew he could save her because he’s Batman.

Whenever you make about ''The Dark Knight'', it never gets old.... I'd watch a numerous videos, about it....

Joker always has a plan and he’s also a very quick thinker, it gives him the ability to be really loose with his planning while still being really affective. He can adapt at a moments notice and we also see how some of his plans already have different options of the possible outcomes. Joker says he doesn’t have a plan and maybe he means in the grand scheme of thing he just wants to cause chaos however he can but all his acts were planned like crazy. The guy is amazingly smart. Joker was amazing in this movie.

Love the new set up! Instead of it just being you telling us about the amazing acting in the scene, its like we're having an intellectual conversation with the chess board in-between us. Awesome idea!

Hello, broken record here :p Love to see you break down some of the "interviews" on To Catch a Predator Be interesting to see the signs of guilt, or lack there off, present there

A little fight in you. I like that. Batman: Then you're gonna love me. *Bang* Still my favorite batman line ever.

i found out about this channel yesterday then I watch like 10 straight and he uploads a new one man this is good content

These videos are so much fun to watch especially because this is one of my favorite movies. I love heath ledger

You can try to get close to a checkmate when the scene is getting more stressfull u can also try diffrent checkmates for diffrent scenes for example the smudder mate when someone is getting strenguled to death

If I was a villain I’d definitely be something like heath ledgers joker telling different backstorys and just causing chaos this joker is one of the best

Never thought about it that way, when he does what batman asks of him. Gives the scene a whole other level of meaning about the joker.

I'd love to see your insights on the last Joker/Batman scene, where they talk for the last time. If memory serves, it's the only time you see and (kinda) hear Batman get nervous. I don't know if scared is too strong a term, but that's where you come in

Your channel is definitely going to blow up

Fun fact when Heath ledger grabbed her face she was actually uncomfortable and they kept the Scene she played it off and looked good so they kept it in the finale cut

This man is always doing something different when he's talking in each video. I think the first one i saw he was just standing there ominously now he's playing chess in probably the coziest setup ive ever seen

This is ten times more enjoyable than I thought it would be. I'd love to see you analyze something like Goodfellas or Casino.

The constant scar-licking is such a good little touch - so subtle that people miss it when trying to impersonate him.

Another fun little info nugget about Heath's performance in this. The reason he always licks the side of his lips is to keep the latex prosthesis moistened, but rather than just edit all of it out, it was kept in, given the allusion to the bit where he's a "dog licking his wounds" all the time, to remind himself they're there. Really drives the feeling of someone with very manic "tics" with random sporadic movements such as that. Could very well be his form of a coping mechanism as he seems to do it more often in scenes where he takes a moment to run several scenerios through his mind, or takes a moment to process what's going on. Though in truth, its just due to him having to keep them from tearing during his line delivery, as he doesn't really lick at them much at all unless he's in a dialogue. Just adds a whole next level of creepy factor to the character, along with his several versions of how he even got the scars that he tells different people, as if he's molding each story to that person to get into their head the most. Like for Rachel, he was seemingly pulling a sympathy tug at her emotions by adding that he did it to himself out of devotion to his wife who ended up leaving him anyway. Contrasting to the mobster where the story revolves around it being his father that actually did it because he wanted to nail the point home that he wasn't afraid of them, as they were trying to intimidate him.

And at this point Bruce told Rachel to stay hidden, but she challenges the joker. This implies she is not smart or making a smart decision

I've heard that in this scene was the first time Michael Caine saw Heath Ledger in makeup and he was horrified. Who wouldn't have been?

The “what’s in the box” scene from Se7en!!!!!

I love these videos, I’ve seen this movie at-least 50 times and I’m still learning something new each time

Where did you learn to read body language

just found you last night and i can't stop watching these

Yay our guy got a sponsor!!! Awesome

I love the desk setup my man!

Really fantastic job with the editing and how you show what you're talking about to really highlight it. Clear and concise. And interesting information!

“Now I’m always smiling” really fucking funny

ever considered doing fight club? specifically the scene's where the narrator and tyler are talking to each other ?

Dope set, man. Loved the half lit face when I first saw it; the chess board adds a lot.

Why is this so underrated

Would be so cool to see Breaking Bad body language analysis on this channel. There is some absolute insanely good scenes in this show.

Tbh I feel like the joker had throwing Rachel out of the window as a plan b: I mean if you think about it it Batman jumping out of a window to save her not only showed he had some type of relationship with her but the fact that he did so while leaving the joker in a room full of wealthy and elite ppl most likely confirmed this to the joker

Another perfect analysis of an iconic scene.

I had to look over the scene and i realized at what point she saw batman, man this is detail

Love your content brother! Gave another layer of depth to my viewing experience!

The more times you watch this movie, the more you realize how incredible it really is

Really loving these videos, the algorithm has started supplying me with these. One recommendation on the set is that the lighting on your face and body is very low, may recommend getting better lighting to illuminate yourself. Other than that, I really dig the set and the videos. Great work, subscribed.

great video and analysis as usual. :) i'm thinking to keep up with The Joker theme you seem to be going with, how about a video analyzing the interrogation scene in Gotham where Jim Gordon Interrogates Jeremy Valeska about his mother's murder?

I love it already

Okay if da joker was threatening me with a potato peeler I would be laughing my ass off lol

There are other body language interpretation channels, but this is the only one that actually sticks to the subject of body language and doesn't go off pontificating on irrelevant bullshit. inject their personal opinions on the subject they're analyzing, or attempt to dabble outside their area of expertise.

This analysis was really good also I like the new set up lol

Can you do an analysis between Hannibal and Clarice? (Silence of the Lambs)?

man i really like your lighting good job

I just watched this movie last night and was so hoping to see you analyze this scene!

Would like to see him do one of bane. The physical acting Tom hardy had to do was underrated imo

the man sitting opposite enigma: you gonna move a piece or what?

Another reason that Joker let go of her was to test and see if Batman was Dent or not...cause at the time he wasnt sure yet. He even says later in the movie that he thought Batman was Harvey the way he threw himself after her.

The thing the I like most is the Jokers willingness to ruin his own well thought out and masterfully executed plans, like dropping Rachel when Batman says to drop her. To me that shows just how brilliant he is as a character, because the thing that I think the Joker would understand is that a plan no matter how methodically thought out it may be, can always be recreated, reimagened, or redone better then before. You always will have another chance to achieve the same goal if you're patient... But when it comes to instilling real genuine mind numbing, bone chilling, fear... You only get one shot... I think that's what the Joker in that scene was attempting to do to Batman was install a real sense of fear... Fear that would break Batman if he didn't save Rachel.

Fun fact, this scene was mostly improvised.

Joker: You got a little fight in you, I like that. Batman: THENYOU'REGONNALOVEME

Dig the digs, bro. Thanks for another entertaining and informative video.

Omg I'm so happy you got an sponsor!!!

Love that moment when she kicks him and he makes THAT laugh..

These videos are awesome.. keep them coming!

It will be incredibly hard to top Heath's Joker. Heath has set the benchmark for the ultimate superhero antagonist.

The soundtrack really amps up the tension in this scene

There are four instinctive responses, my dude. Fight, flight, freeze, and f*ck.

I think some conversations between “melted ice cream Thor” and Professor Hulk or his interactions with the team!

The Dark Knight goes down as one of my favorite movies because of how terrifying and fantastic Heath Ledgers acting was as the Joker. The Joker is hands down my favorite comic book villian. the right amount of crazy and cunning with the right amount of gear to cause the right amount of anarchy.

Fucking LOVE this channel! Gonna be here all the way until you get to a million subscribers

I love the analysis on every detail, and the new set looks great. The chess board is a nice touch

Woah , Riddler(enigma) studying joker's body language 😝

The old guy who challenges the Joker at the beginning is a real-life politician who cameos in a bunch of Batman movies cuz he's such a big nerd -- er, fan. Patrick Leahy.
