If you watch it, be prepared for major depression afterwards. Crying or Very sad

:-/ guhhhhhh that old woman was taking microdoses of speed.
Oh, hey, you know what we also call that? RITALIN!

I'm on the stuff and its greusume... I saw the movie and decided it was time to talk to my doctor about the doses... the crashes are killer.
I mean I'm a sane person and all, don't get me wrong, but
oh, hello! Can you tell me where the TV station is? I'm going to be on tellllllllevision!

:shudder: I hated that movie for that

This was a spectacularly done movie, and I would reccomend it to anyone for the first viewing... However, I never wish to see it again. I would be missing out if I never saw it, but yeah... It's one of those types of things.

Let's put it this way: Trainspotting had ups. Requiem for a Dream just keeps spiralling downward.

It could not be better-crafted, and really speaks volumes about "addiction" in general, more than "drugs" specifically... but yeah...

An Amazing, Powerful Film. But definitely not one you're going to pop in the DVD player weekly.

I keep forgetting to mention that the theme from Requiem for a Dream was orchestrally redone for the Lord of the Rings trailer, although by itself as the string quartet version it's also very good. The whole soundtrack is good.

Wow, just doing that website for about 3-5 minutes (I kinda lost track of time...) was enough to creep me good for a while. Very powerful film, that one... it stays with ya.

However, The Watcher is correct... it's GREAT use of Flash. More mood in that one website than I've seen in many feature films. Not a pixel wasted here.
