Manage episode 440065016 series 3555701
Andrew and special guest, Greg Jolley, uncover the meaning in Darren Aronofsky's groundbreaking and harrowing Requiem For A Dream from 2000. With its unmistakably unique style, haunting imagery, and performances for the ages all around, this roller coaster ride of drama and intensity makes the Coney Island "Cyclone" feel like a kiddie coaster!
Andrew and Greg discuss such topics as the amazingly effective performances, the complicated relationships among characters, why the film is not actually about drug addiction, a very "juicy" conversation, the significance and criticism of the harrowing final act, the film's dedication to emotional truths, and much more!
