I do not want to write a proper review- pnly to say a few words on Arronofsky's picture REQUIEM FOR A DREAM.
Whe I rented this film- I expected a good film- not groundbreaking or Oscar best picture stuff. But when I watched it- I was so shocked by it's power and terror created something in me I had not felt ever before. The final minutes of the film are so shockingly powerful and horrific that I- who am desensitized to everything I've seen for the past long time- was disturbed. I don't get disturbed at films. When films want to disturb and they are good at just that- I am not disturbed- but I get the overall effect- so films don't lose their power. But REQUIEM FOR A DREAM not only disturbed me- it truly shocked and chilled me- I couldn't sleep. I was so disturbed- I hadn't felt that way EVER!!!!!!!!!!
Not ever have I been so moved and emotionally affected by a film or anything before. This film is best picture stuff- it should've tied with BEFORE NIGHT FALLS last year. Normally- it would've won- but Before Night falls was amazing too- though not in the same way.
For once in my life- I do not want to see a film just one more time (or a hundred, depending on how much I like it). REQUIEM FOR A DREAM is an amazing film, one of the best ever made. However, it's power and brilliance cannot stand up to it's terror. Absolutely groundbraking- but I advise you if you have not seen it never to see it. It may be one of the best films ever- but it just isn;t worth it- do not see this film.,
