If you liked Requiem for a Dream, you should check out Natural Born Killers, made by the same people.

...but 'Natural Born Killers' was written by Oliver Stone, and I don't think he had anything to do with Requiem.

BTW...the REQUIEM WEB SITE is still up, and worth a peek if you're baked!

Cool site poon!

"Natural Born Killers" was another damn good movie by a great director btw.

I must of watched it a million times when it was first released!

But I must, since I've mentioned directors, leave a mention to the late master, Stanley Kubrick and my favorite movie by him:

"A Clockwork Orange."

Talk about genious!

I saw that movie once, I went to the movie theater with my parents at 8 or 9 years old, I don't remember much (*lights huge bowl*) except a ring, and alot deaths, possibly a video camera..... I remember some lady was at the movie theater freaked out that somebody *cough* so young was watching this movie.

i saw Requiem for a Dream a few weeks ago.

I met Jared Leto, the main actor, hes a really cool guy.

What is this directors cut version? The one i saw included the "ass to ass" scene that ppl have been tlaking about.
Does directors cut show more of the injectings and sex or what?

I havent read many of the above posts, but I have to say that I have finally seen this movie a couple days ago, watched it again yesterday and I have to say this has to be one of my new favorite movies for sure. The directing and the acting is almost priceless, and even the camera angles are almost artwork. That old lady, Mrs. Goldfarb or w/e, I really thought she was a great person for that role completely. Theres so much more to this movie that you have to dig for.

Like the fact that when Mrs. Goldfarb goes to the doctor for weightloss, she says she could lose 50 lbs, and he says something on the lines of "not a problem, *glances at his watch* not a problem at all" and leaves the room and shuts the door, all without even glancing her ONE look.
To me that really shows how a lot of doctors are nowadays in the way. It doesn't matter what you look like or what your problem is, they'll fill ya a script for horrible shit for almost nothing wrong with you.

Another thing I noticed is that Marion starts associating her love with Harry to the drug. The were a happy couple, and then you start noticing how she looks in the mirror, isn't happy with how she looks, does some coke and she's happy again with herself. Then she always starts telling Harry she loves him when shes high. When Harry can't get any, she gets irate and starts getting very angry with him and calls him a loser. The love and the drug have become one thing to her.

The ending is also just..priceless. With one in the hospital, one in jail, one a whore drug addict, and one in the psych ward. Basically the 4 routes to go if you keep fucking with shit like that.

Anyways I could go on and on..but if you haven't seen it, go see it for sure..

You the type of person who enjoys drug related films? Watch this one high. You will never look at your refridgerator again. Also check out the movie Pi if your one of those philosophical stoner who likes to think deeply about life. I believe they are both by the same director.
