A wide shot was used in the finished film, but in the trailer, a close-up is used for Nicholsons line. (2)
Michael Keaton
s line "My life is really...complex" is shown here as a close-up which is a different take than the one used in the film. Additionally, in the movie, the take used is from a different camera position. (3)

d.
In
Sam Hamm
s original script, the first time we see Smylexs effect (called Smylenol in the script) is on the two female models, who are only represented as cardboard cut-outs in Jokers commercial. The original scene has them in a bikini photo session with a photographer who is urging them to smile more as he snaps away. The girls begin to giggle, which at first pleases the photographer, then their giggles become laughter, then uncontrollable helpless hysterics, which has the photographer going from mild annoyance to complete horror as the exhausted girls expire from forced hilarity, with the ghastly Joker-like grins frozen on their faces. As it was originally intended, the death scene is much more protracted than the one with the female newscaster, depicting death by Smylex as a particularly agonizing, if mirthful, way to go.
