Ellen Burstyn: Sara Goldfarb

From Darren Aronofsky, Requeim for a Dream is his most disturbing, most crushingly shocking work yet.
Ellen Burstyn is fantastic as the lonely Sara Goldfarb. Jared Leto, Jenni... read more

At the end of this film I was left pretty moved.

It's a really powerful piece of cinema. I'd only heard a few things about this movie and didn't really know what to expect, in fact, I really just watched it to see how good the soundtrack was. At the beginning I was fairly apathetic to at least two of the main characters, but as the film went on they all really grew on me. I guess I... read more

"Now we come to step three. This... drives... most... people... crazy."

Darren Aronofsky's Requiem for a Dream is intense, uncompromising, disturbing and depressing. It is a rare film that is emotionally fatiguing due to the unremittingly powerful portrayal of its subject matter. Writer/director Aronofsky deserves to be lauded for his representation of drugs and the consequences of ... read more

Description: Requiem for a Dream exposes four paralleled individuals and their menacing addiction to heroin, cocaine, and diet pills (speed). Taking place in Brooklyn amidst the waning Coney Island, the drugs are very easily obtained and keep each main character in its cycle of dependence. The protagonist Harry Goldfarb is your typical heroin junk ... (more)

Overrated Films (69 movies items)

"There are certainly more boring films, but I don't think any film has ever embodied so many things I dislike. Totally lacking in subtlety despite not saying anything, "Requiem for a Dream" beats you over the head with it's tragedy so much that by the ending it transcends into unintentional comedy. Not to mention the fucking annoying editing, while works during the pill popping, is needlessly extended into the rest of the film. A glorified D.A.R.E. pamphlet with nudity. Also every time I see Jen"

"Ellen Burstyn as Sara Goldfarb Ellen Burstyn may have been the best performance of the cast. Going from odd to bat-shit crazy isn't easy when you're in less than half the movie. A great performance. Jared Leto as Harry Goldfarb Jennifer Connelly as Marion Silver "

2012 Movie Diary - April (53 movies items)

"I didn't understand this that much, but it was a very dramatic. Mind you, it's Darren Aronofsky. I think the cast was brilliant: Jared Leto, Marlon Wayans, Jennifer Connelly and Ellen Burstyn (who in my opinion made the whole thing). She was fabulous! Also, I found the last 10 minutes almost unbearable to watch! My heart broke!"
