A Very Flawed Masterpiece

Rating: 9/10 (2 July 2020)

Requiem for a Dream is a flawed masterpiece. The film is a reflection of life. Their is nothing pretty. It is a dark depiction of the effects of drugs. Drug addiction is a slippery slope of self destruction and self pity. This movie captures the unpleasantness of a life of a junky. Their are no happy endings. Most films these days don't have the guts to make these types of films.
