I'm not sure I ever got over Requiem for a Dream. Sometimes at night I lie awake thinking about it, although I've not viewed the movie itself in years. Anyway, great list. Well written and well chosen! “The film is a bleak punch to the gut, one that can take days to get over after an initial viewing.”

I’m not sure I ever got over Requiem for a Dream. Sometimes at night I lie awake thinking about it, although I’ve not viewed the movie itself in years.

Anyway, great list. Well written and well chosen!

I don't remember how long it took me to stop talking about it, probably a few weeks. I had to talk about it, though, because if I didn't, I knew I wouldn't move past it. That sounds melodramatic, but I think you know what I mean. It was an amazingly crafted movie. Anyway, great reviews!
