REQUIEM FOR A DREAM( MY VIEWS

Disturbing movie, I never took drugs, and have never witnessed, addiction of any kind on such an intense level. First thing i realized was the weird camera angles. There is always this close up of the person their expressions, their pain, and then and times u see what they are seeing, the shaking, the blurriness of vision, the visions, etc,  and their is this constant recording of the taking of drugs. It was so often that it forced you to get an idea of what extreme drug addiction was. I found that very effective. In the beginning of the movie there was a subtle addiction, and one could see the progress of it during the entire movie till all hell broke loose in the end, it was chaotic, sad, extremely disturbing. I liked the music, its was  repetative, annoying, and sometimes sad, it was suppose to make u feel somewhat disoriented. Although it was fictional, i still feel a little relaxed because i never took drugs, well alcohol, but not on that intense level, well drunk once, never again, but chhhhhhhhhh, the needles and those hardcore drugs, NEVER for me, I don't know the moral of the story, i guess its to never use drugs. This movie is highly recommended for drug addicts. Best actor was the old woman, she showed a transformation from normal to completely insane from beginning to end, i felt her pain and  the camera helped this effect tremendously, i blame the doctor, don't understand why he would give her pills to send her crazy, for money?  stupes.....  in the end she held her son and said she loved him. That's all she wanted, to be recognized on television for the world to see, but instead she ended in the mad house because of television abuse and drugs, all grey and helpless. Best moment was when the girl was under water, finding peace there i guess, but it was too much pain so she screamed, crazyyyyy, and the second best moment was when the two guys were in jail and the boy said "jesus christ", suffering in pain with the infected arm,  from there to the end was crazyyyyyyy!!!! Then to finish off with what they really wanted was  revealed, and shattered all at once, all they wanted  was to be together, and accomplished,..... as i said before, DISTURBING MOVIE FOR DRUG ADDICTS
