Requiem for a Dream

Has anyone seen this film, what I consider to be the greatest film ever made??

 

Superb acting, absolutely spot-on storyline.....the most thought-provoking and harrowing film I have watched in years...

 

If you haven't seen it, do so.....its like a very unfunny version of Trainspotting set in New York....

 

I'll shut up now thumbs.gif

my mate watched it after a night out and now won't come "clubbing" anymore...if u know what i mean? wink.gif

 

thats put me off watching it.

 

Don't let it put you off.....its an amazing film (in a very sobering way)

 

The bit at the end was enough to make even a hard-nose cunt like me feel depressed...

 

My mate and his girlfriend watched it and she refused to have sex with him for a week afterwards. She said she was to shocked by the degradation of the female character (jennifer Connolly) in the movie...

Well its not really about clubbing........they do go out to clubs in the film but its more about the decline of the 3 main characters in the film who are addicted to heroin.....

 

It shows the lengths they go to just to get their next bag......

 

Also the main bloke's (Jarod Leto) mum goes mental. She is a daytime TV addict and wins the chance to appear on her favourite game show. She wants to wear the dress she wore to he sons gradutaion but thinks she is too fat to get into it so starts taking loads of slimming pills......she gets addicted to the pills and eventually goes mental and ends up in a loony bin....

 

Meanwhile, the main female character (Jennifer Connolly) gets the 2 blokes in the film to go from new york to Miami just to get some heroin after they fail to score when their usual supplier is bustsed by a rival drugs gang....

 

They get stop by the cops on the way back and arrested for possesion of heroin. Jarod Leto's arm goes sceptic from the minging tract marks in his forearm and he has to have it amputated.....

 

Jennifer Connolly then has to become a prossie to pay for her heroin......

 

All in all, amazing but truely disturbing portrayl of heroin addiction....and I have just ruined the story for everyone now....sorry frown.gif

I wouldn't fear,
For i have known completeness like being here.
Wrapped in the warmth of you,
Loving every breath of you,
Still my heart this moment or it might burst,
Can we stay right here,
Untill the end of time,
Till the seas stop churning,
Wanna love you till the seas run dry.
Cos Ive found the one i am searching for...........the one.

requiem is only an ok film.. sick and disturbing as it is

 

Maybe it just appeals to my twisted nature then....

 

Plus I would love to give Jennifer Connolly one (lowering the tone a bit)
