The director of the cult hit (pi) returns with an equally unsettling piece, this time concerning drug addiction and sexual abuse
Adapted from the novel by Hubert Selby Jr. (author of the controversial Last Exit to Brooklyn), Requiem for a Dream is the story of four individuals who are each, in their own way, writhing in the coils of an addiction, and striving desperately to attain some kind of sanity in their lives
From this unflinching material, Aronofsky has fashioned a dark and fascinating film about betrayal, and the inability to love
This screemplay also includes Notes and a few production photographs
