Nolan's/Ledger's view and portrayal or Joker worked for film, but best ever, I think not. How can it even be measured when in reality, that Joker was not true to the comic book. It captured elements of his dark moments, but was in some ways 1 dimensional to the history of the comic character and took many liberties in order to make him more realistic. As Nolan has done for everyone.. and yes, works good for film.
Nicholson's Joker was more true to the comic, yet still left a lot to be desired.
You would almost need Heath's, Jack's and the screwball version from the 60's series all rolled into one to better capture the essence of Joker.

- The beauty of the Joker is that one moment he can be so absolutely ridiculous and then suddenly and horrifyingly dark.ETM
- Never has the full spectrum of that been captured in one portrayal. Either not going far enough or playing to only one side.ETM
