Requiem For a Dream

Requiem for a Dream (2000)

No middle ground here; you'll either love or hate Requiem for a Dream. Jared Leto, Jennifer Connelly and Marlon Wayans are best friends and amateur drug dealers looking for a big score. Trouble is, they're their own best customers. As they descend into the nightmarish hell of addiction, Leto's mother (Oscar-nominee Ellen Burstyn) also finds herself hooked on barbiturates. Not for the squeamish.

My Two Cents: Loved the style; One hundred times more likely to keep kids off drugs than a "Just Say No" campaign.
