The film's by Darren Aronofsky, of Pi, the lesser-known and not-so-hot Protozoa and, perhaps unfortunately, the next Batman installment.
Requiem For a Dream is mildly decent.. it hits wonderfully at times and misses horribly at others, ultimately ending in some sort of tragic why-am-I-watching-this finale. Someone on the IDM list showered glowing praise on it saying it was "unbearable." I agree that it's unbearable at times, but I wasn't aware that was a quality of a decent movie.
It works as a film if you've got a hankering to watch a bunch of junkies go down the drain.
One of my friends - who really enjoyed the film - asked of it, "Why the hell did he make this movie?"
Which I wondered too.
I'd take Pi. I don't like looking at car crashes.

Smb mentioned the movie "Requiem for a dream" couple
days ago. I tried to find it and failed. Where, when,
and by whom was this movie made?
Angelinka.
