series Ellen Burstyn
Directed by Darren Aronofsky | 2000
With Ellen Burstyn, Jennifer Connelly, Marlon Wayans, Jared Leto, Christopher McDonald
"Iced with a genuinely felt, Springsteenian-loser-teen heartbreak, Requiem for a Dream may be an elaborate stunt, a bungee jump, but even so, it's forceful enough to leave a rare palpitating residue."
—The Village Voice
Burstyn netted yet another Oscar nomination for her bravura freak-out performance as Sara Goldfarb, a game-show obsessed Coney Island widow who spirals into a crippling amphetamine dependence. Aronofsky’s harrowing multi-narrative tale of drug addiction (based on the novel by Hubert Selby, Jr.) is a hallucinatory stream of jagged, jittery nightmare visuals so visceral that you can feel the cold sweats.
