Requiem For A Dream (2000)

Hi folks!

So... I've decided to talk about a film that teached me a lot! The film is called 'Requiem For A Dream'. I think most of you haven't even heard about it, but, is one of the best films I've ever seen!

The film's subject is focused in the drug addicted's diseases. The story passes in Brooklin streets, where Harry, his friend Tyrone and his girlfriend Marion are really addicted to all the types of illegal drugs. In other way, Harry's mother is keen on television shows, and once she had been invited to take part in one. However, her old red dress does not fits on her anymore, so she has to enter on a diet to get thiner. Disapointed with the diet results, she went to the doctor, who gave her some pills for breaking the hungry. While Sara gets addicted to her pills, Harry and his friend start drug dealing. They make money easyly and start to grow. Marion wants to open her so-dreamed suit shop, and Harry uses the money from the dealing to help her with the objective. However, as they use drugs, their needs for it increases quickly and they begin to use more than sell, what spends deeply theis savings. Harry and Tyrone decide to take a trip for buying cocaine in another state, where's cheaper. The diseases starts to appear in everyone's lives when Harry has a problem on his arm because of using excess of heroin. Sara, Harry's mom, is getting high repeatedly because of the pills the doctor gave her. Marion doesn't have any money for buying drugs and Harry doesn't arrive from his trip. The trouble get's worse when Harry is at the hospital and the doctor tells him that they'll amputate his arm. Tyrone was arrested in a messy situation and in the jail he is being humilhated by the police officers. Marion decides to arrange a meeting with a humangous drug dealer, and for getting drugs she has to have sex with him. And the troubles are a snow ball that is sliding down a mountain and getting bigger and bigger.

Despite not having a happy end, the film has amazing and weird images. You feel very annoyed at the end. Without lesson of moral, it passes the routine and the life decreasing of the drug addicteds with some disturbing - but also incredible - soundtrack. If you watch 'Requiem For A Dream', you get even more 'against' drugs. Is not a film that you only watch, that's a film that you feel, that you listen. Is a film that the viewer takes part in the scenes! Is not just another cult film...
Thus, that's it! If you feel interested, here is the trailer and my tip for watching!
