JOKER 2 TEASER BREAKDOWN! Folie à Deux Deeper Meaning Explained!
The title of Joker 2, 'Folie à Deux', refers to a delusion shared by two people. In this case, it's Arthur Fleck's Harley Quinn version and Lady Gaga.
Folie à deux is French, which can be translated into English as "folly of two". It can be deciphered in medical terms as shared psychosis or shared delusional disorder (SDD).
