User: I like dark and edgy dramas about crime and psychological issues.
Assistant: You should watch Joker, it just came out and it is all about that.
User: What other movies do you know that are similar?
Assistant: Anything by Darren Aronofsky, The Wrestler is very dark and kind of sad actually.
User: Oh I hate when movies are too sad, but I sort of like watching them anyway.
Assistant: Well the main character from that also is in a movie called Spun and it is pretty funny, moreso than sad.
User: I've seen that, it was a good example of a "drug movie".
Assistant: A good example of a drug movie, unlike Requiem for a Dream.
User: Yeah that movie was too cheesy and not realistic.
Assistant: Sometimes a movie being too realistic is not so good either.
User: A good movie that is real but also dramatic is Beasts of No Nation
Assistant: Yes I agree, that is a powerful movie.
User: I would say its Idris Elba's best performance.
Assistant: I loved him in the Wire so I gave that movie a shot on Netflix.
User: Its still on there should we watch it tonight?
Assistant: Ok, I think Beast's of No Nation is worthy of a re-watch.
User: The soundtrack is so great and expressive.
Assistant: I know it is a shame it didn't get more awards.
User: It should have won Best Picture, honestly The Revenant from that year is inferior to this.
Assistant: Its because the director, Fukunaga, is relatively new on this market. Although his True Detective was great too.
