Requiem For a Dream




Requiem for a dream is a movie about drugs. There are a few different cases of people taking different types of drugs. First of all we have a group of friends that start smoking joints, and later selling drugs. But they comit a mistake when they try the drug they want to sell and see that it’s fantastic. They get addicted to that drug and end up very bad. The young fellow of the group has to have his arm removed because of the drug injections that got infected. His girlfriend, without any money starts having sex with others to obtain money for drugs. And last but not least, their friend dies also due to drugs.
The other example of the movie, is the mother of that young fellow. It’s the typical old woman that’s always watching television and believes everything. Once she received a call from a tv station and she was invited to go there because she was the winner. Immediately the woman starting doing diet but because this was so hard she ended up taking pills to get thinner. Those pills are drugs. A drug that got her crazy.
I love that movie because it’s very artistic somehow. What I mean with artistic is all the detail that is set in every scene. The sounds are very real, and the images too. For instance, every time they take a drug there’s like a leimotiv that repites itself. A few images that represent what happens, like pupils dilating… and the sound of rolling a joint or blowing out the smoke. It’s also very moral showing you what drugs bring to people, just dead and problems, serious problems. The film is wonderfull and also very depressing. I would recommend this movie to everybody more for its message rather than the film. Still so, it’s a very original movie and it’s very creative.
