In the original origin story of The Joker, he was disfigured by acid, whereas in this movie, it was done by a blade. This ties into the notorious 1947 murder and disfiguration of Elizabeth Short, who was referred to as "the Black Dahlia". The first time The Joker describes his scars, he says that they were made with a knife, and were intended to create a smile. When Elizabeth Short was killed, this is exactly what was done to her face. Until the Manson murders in 1969, the Short murder and mutilation represented the most hideous and deeply shocking crime in all of Los Angeles history. The concept in this movie, that The Joker had a smile carved into his face, adds to the terrifying nature of the character.
