"If Requiem for a Dream is your favorite movie...Well, you have certainly experimented with some of the exciting substances that are available in our modern-day society. You love films about drugs, about drug use, about drug abuse; it makes you feel closer to the characters, all the while distancing yourself from the grittiness that those experiences - truly harrowing - create for others. You are absorbed by this film, and its beautitudes, and also enjoy watching Intervention. "

“I like Darren Aronofsky, and Requiem for a Dream is one of his better and I think his most powerful film. I love the style in which it is filmed, there are lots of split-screen technique, exaggerated sound effects and huge close ups, and all these manage to be stylishly used. The music is stunning too, Aronofsky directs superbly and the script is brutal and very honest. Requiem for a Dream has one underlying theme, the creeping menace of addiction, this theme is explored in a lot of forms and with chilling and compelling effect. Not only that, the highs and lows of drug-taking are conveyed. The story is hard-hitting, moving and draws you in and the characters feel real. The acting helps with this, Ellen Burstyn is amazing and gives one of the best performances of the decade. Jared Leto and” read more
