Requiem For A Dream4

When things aren't going well, when the shit's hitting the fan and your whole life's turning pear-shaped, it's always a good idea to look for that light at the end of the tunnel. Yet it's also worth remembering that tunnels can cave in, and that lights are switched off. At least, that's normally the case in Hubert Selby Jr novels, and that's certainly the case in his book Requiem For A Dream. Given the harsh monochrome look and head-piercing nightmarishness of director Darren Aronofsky's striking debut, Pi, you can rest assured that his adaptation of Selby Jr's novel is a very faithful one.
