Released in 2018, Joseph is a Malayalam-language thriller directed by M. Padmakumar. The film is widely regarded as one of the finest investigative dramas to come out of the South Indian film industry in recent years. It stars the veteran actor Joju George in the titular role, delivering a performance that is both gut-wrenching and powerfully restrained.
Unlike typical Bollywood action films, Joseph takes its time. It builds tension through atmosphere and logic rather than loud explosions.
