    There are some clear similarities.

    Tom Waits is a musical genius, if he did happen to influence one of the best performances in cinema, it only adds to how amazing he is. :woo:

    "My father was... a drinker". I think that guy is who the Joker was talking about. Maybe Tom Waits is the Joker's dad.
