  • mayonegg: moviesinframes: Requiem for a dream, 2000 (dir. Darren Aronofsky) By Concon I could only watch this film all the way through once.  I tried to watch it a second time a little while ago, but I didn’t even get halfway through before I had to turn it off.  This isn’t just the kind of film that harshly rips out your heart the second it begins and stomps on it for just under two hours without mercy.  It’s the king and allmighty ruler over them all.  I’ve never seen a film as haunting, harsh or intense as this one.  I agree completely! I had to watch this for my drug and alcohol addictions class for my major… I flinched so much and barely made it through watching it. Now I can watch it all the way through fine, but I still flinch.
