More like this was so... so... kino!
It's not perfect bh any means, I found the granny's hallucionations cringe on a rewatch but the drama and tragedy are top notch. Shame that Aronofsky never made another film of this caliber ever again.
>>
>>216952607
That is a lie though, blue eyes and green eyes and hazel eyes are all angelic. It's black eyes that are demonic. Very obviously.
>>
This movie teaches the befriending blacks is harmful

I thought it was ass2ass. Leto and Connelly can't pull off convincing junkies because they're shitty actors and it's hard to feel sympathetic for losers who steal from their own mother. Speaking of, the mother's plot is actually sad.

how does this movie compare to trainspotting? I only know it's also about heroin
>>
>>216952506
I don't see why this movie is so scary. He only loses his arm in the end. It's not like he nodded off and stopped breathing. And unlike alcohol, opiates don't cause organ failure. As long as he sobered up in hospital and got some counselling, he could've turn his life around.

This isn't even close to the misery porn some jews can pull off. If you want true bleak soulless shit watch the Meal Ticket short from the Coens

Good point.

Director thought your pupils grew when you shoot dope. Retard movie for teens
>>
i remember thinking this was dry and miserable as hell. rewatched it the other day, it's actually just very silly. i don't like (or even get to know) any of the characters aside from the old lady. most of it is style-over-substance.

much preferred Trainspotting. it's not exactly social realism, but it just shows people who act human, and it has a sense of humour about it all.

>>216952848
they also do a lot of hyper shit.

i've only smoked heroin a couple of times, i just nodded off on the toilet. hit my head pretty hard without realising.
>>
>>216952794
People generally don't describe Requiem for a Dream as scary, more like really depressing
>>
>>216952875
Yeah used to be a junkie. havent seen this movie in ages though. but I feel like he didnt actually look too much inn to it all.
>>
>>216952864
Natives of the levant have brown eyes. A jew who has European eyes very obviously stole those genes from Europe, likely via rape.
>>
This is one of my favorite movies, if it wasn't for the old lady's hallucinations it would be literally perfect.
I love how well it conveys the sense of claustrophobia and the feeling of the walls closing in on the protagonists.
Not to mention how good the "hip hop editing" looks.
>>
New Yorkers, how do you rate Jared Leto's accent in this?
>>
>>216952794
Dumbfuck, his dream was to be a DJ.
You need both arms to disc jockey, his dream was permanently out his grasp after they amputated his arm.
>>
>>216952976
the girl should have gotten into binge eating so she could no longer be a model.
(wouldn't make sense today, but it would have in 2000)

For me, it's Coney Island Dreaming. A slow, meditative piece that suits the more quiet scenes like a glove

>doing drugs is LE BAD
shit movie
>>
>>216953065
Doing drugs is bad tho
>>
My understanding is that drugs and bad people will eat you alive, and also drugs make you easy prey for that bad people.

The problem is also that money is a drug in the case of Wayans' character.
>>
>>216953079
Maybe you're just bad at drugs
>>
>>216952812
Ashkenazis are unironically white jew converts, what's your point?
>>
>>216953131
t. Jamarcus

Also: I don't understand why they arrested Wayans' character at the end
>>
>>216952812
Now go ahead post niggers with blue eyes like that's supposed to prove anything.
>>
>>216952506
Evil? Idk about that. Dark and stylistic, depressing, and harsh maybe. Evil? i feel like a movie like Pillon is evil, like what is that movie trying to say? normalize gay bdsm? thats weird. Funny Games kind of, Cannibal Holocaust, these movies are more Evil than a stylistic anti drug movie...
>>
>>216953107
>The problem is also that money is a drug in the case of Wayans' character.

i mean the old lady is addicted to sugar and television to start off with. not sure if that's intentional or just such commonplace addictions that people take them for granted (also looking at you, caffeine.)
>>
>>216953038
Did you even watch the movie?
Marian's dream was to be a fashion designer, which is completely out of reach after becoming a junkie and turning to prostitution to fuel her habit.
>>
>>216952716
Typical psychopath attitude. Real empathy doesn't have stipulations - seeing a human being suffering should be enough.
>>
>>216952506
Some people think another movie called spun 2002 is a rip off or too similar to this but that one is pretty good of you can watch things like this and it's a little different
>>
>>216953178
They arrested him because he was black in the South.

Girls start having sex at a way younger age now for drugs. You get called a pedophile for being concerned about that fact.
>>
>>216953223
sorry yes, my bad. forgot she wants to design clothes, start a store, etc.

still, she isn't physically changed. at the tail-end of the whole 'sex positivity' thing, the trend was 'sex work is actually fine/empowering' so now the film looks naive. she's consenting, she's getting paid, u go girl.

meanwhile, Leto's character loses a fucking arm.
>>

Curious how did you find this site or why you post here
>>
>>216952506
It's a cautionary tale. Don't do drugs they're not worth it.

Only the mother was TRULY tragic. The son stealing her tv all the time, her need for love, comfort and companionship to battle her loneliness.

The rest got what they deserved.
>>
Comically stupid movie. Most drug addicts in real life are blue collar workers trying to relieve chronic pain.
>>
>>216953271
i lived just around the corner from a guy who was in one of those Muslim grooming gangs. very obvious he was a drug dealer, turns out he was intentionally selling drugs to 14-year-old girls then inviting them to parties to get raped. grim as hell.

You're confusing the movie with the opinions of deluded sex positive feminists. The movie shows just how degrading "sex work" is. Plus she's doing it to feed her habit, it's unlikely she'll ever manage to turn her life around, especially since it's implied her parents don't really care about her

>bro these drugs HELP people bro
>no that's not why me or any of my taco bell worker friends do it... but they CAN help people!!!
>>
>>216953427
my hazy recollection is that this was the old woman's substance of choice, not stimulants.

i always see old ladies in pharmacies arguing that they need more codeine or tramadol. they get put on 'diamorphine' (heroin) if things get really bad.

i mean at that stage in your life, fuck it. might as well.

Junkies don't deserve empathy

>>216953504
It’s incredibly rare to see a construction worker or lineman that isn’t addicted to weed or coke or meth.
>>
>>216953365
why do you ask? i (>>216952875) came here in the 2007 because of this edgy "/b/" place everyone was talking about, then stuck around because i liked Bleach and Naruto (most anime forums were insufferable).

i post here because i like linear message boards and the sense of humour here.
>>
seething druggies
>>
>>216953427
Yeah, because the characters in the movie are all bored rich kids right?
If you pay attention and pick up on all the subtle clues you'll realize they are disadvantaged youths. It makes sense that they would be especially vulnerable to becoming addicted to drugs
>>
>>216953552
when was the last time you went a week without caffeine, anon? (if it wasn't for Pope Clement VIII, you'd get arrested for possession.)
>>
>>216953566
Young people are less likely to be addicts than middle aged factory workers.
>>
>>216953566
'disadvantaged' lol they're privileged as fuck m8. the couple have money, they just blow it.

>if it wasn't for the old lady's hallucinations it would be literally perfect
The old lady's part was the best part desu
All the other shit was retarded

>>216953597
You didn't pay attention well enough.
Jennifer Conelly's character has absent parents that don't care enough about her to check if she's actually going to therapy
Leto and Wayan, although having sweet caring mothers, come from single parent households. We never see either of their dads.
Leto is so poor he has to routinely sell his mother's TV for a quick fix of heroin. They only get money when the become drug dealers themselves

>>216953365
I found it in 06 because of ytmnd getting mad about 4chan memes being used so I had to find out what this 4chan was that everyone hated
>>
>>216953551
Just wonder cause this place is really random and considered pretty bad but not popular like the socials
>>
>>216953569
>Caffeine is literally the same thing as heroin
I see the drugs have completely taken hostage of your higher level reasoning. I hope you can get help asap.

Good night bump
