Dream, physical and spiritual powerlessness, Reivew on Requiem for a Dream

In fact, the whole film is easy to understand, but the director is so talented that there are more than two thousand editing shots! Compared with Taiwan’s Yang Dechang and Hou Xiaoxian, who spend two or three hours at every turn, and have a lot of styles with long shots, for the 100-minute "Requiem", I admire them all.
The four people all had their own dreams, but they fell into a sense of powerlessness in their physical and spiritual choices. Marianne and the hero are lost in the pleasure of the body, while the mother chooses the spirit to abandon the body and chooses to lose weight. The final four-fold conversion is really dazzling...There is a feeling of traveling through the "Divine Comedy".
