ive watched both the edited version of this movie and the director's cut.. and WOW.. it has got to be one of the most intense emotionally distrubing and graphic but powerful movie...:eyespop: :eek: :eyespop: i dont think u can watch this movie too many times just cuz there are so many little things that attracts your attention the more times u watch it... if u can bypass the initial shock or the disturbing feelings then do watch it more than once... i was in awe watching this movie and the cinematography of it... so unique.. like how the fridge would attack the mother, when she was all delerious from the drugs.... how when jennifer & jared were in bed togeather the way their hands moved across the body and etc. amazing sequence whenever they were thinking about drug or takin them they shows the syringe being filled up and the eyes dilating... the directors cut was by far more profound and graphic but then maybe again, it might just seem that way cuz i wasnt paying so close attention the first time around... some parts of the movie were just so grotesque and distrubing that i had a hard time stomaching it but others were just amazingly potrayed. anyone pick up at the end when all the characters are lying in the bed alone sorta cuddling their own body portraying the result of their addictions... man, that was powerful... the acting in this movie was amazing! esp ellen portraying the lonley ageing mother whose dream, to be on the show in her red dress worn to her son's graduation, had become a nightmare and causing her to become psychotic! damn,in the part where shes literally going insane looking like a homelss schizo on the subway, she had me totally convinced.. i was freaking out but yet part of me felt so sad and pitied her...:nervous: jared leto also did an amazing job portryaing the son addicted to heroin.. so thin and gaunt u could see his bone jabbing outa him (but he still looked hot :o )...
those u havent watched the movie. go watch it! the closer u are with the whole drug scene, the more impact this movie will have on u. even if have never touched drugs nor be around ppl that do, its still one hell of a movie.

hmm dude i totally agree... when the the mom was on the subway and everyone just thought she was cracked out.. i think was when i started crying lol.. and also after she runs outside from popping too many pills and those hosts were in her house.. when shes running and its winter and that song comes on... gawd. saddddd... i really hope their isnt doctors out there like that today. when she was telling him things just werent right and he didnt do about it... didnt even see how terrible and ed up she was. |

good thing you brought this thread back, this movie is one of my favorites... i was depressed after i saw it too, and i never touched a drug in my life either
Damo: werd. that's why some of the greatest movies are those very underrated, and it's a good thing, because they're not getting raped by all the people that don't appreciate them for what they really are. not many people these days want to go to a movie and have to think about the plot. |

| this movies not ment to be scary; i think its suppose to make you feel the crash you get after you trip like that, the movie is in like a sutle color and nothign really bright even that scene when hes the main character is on the roof with his girl its almost surreal. great cast esp waynes cuz he added flavor and diversity to it. |

I thought the waynes would suck in it. Loved his comedy but thought he won't be able to act, but he did a wicked job on this movie :) . |

Requiem for a dream was really good, one of the most depressing movies ive ever seen. (cant top Jude in that category though). That soundtrack was awesome too, I swear, that one song is so powerful it can make u form an emotional attachment to any image. For example, I just say a trailer for 'the two towers' recently after watching that movie, and they had an altered version of the main theme from requiem for a dream in the commercial. Even though I'd already seen the movie, I felt this POWERFUL urge to go see it again. .....needless to say strong piece.
And about Pi->WTF is with the end!!! |
