Who will play a requiem for your dreams

The dream that supported them step by step to run out of control was just the red dress in Harry's hallucination, a dream that was shattered at the touch of a button.
The oppression of the movie is too heavy. The repeated white powder, needles, dilated pupils, and rapid cuts all make the viewer feel restless. Even if despair and addiction are far away from you, then The camera that seems to be constantly pushing and urging also presses you to feel the same way.
I was once amazed at Jared Leto's eyes like clear water, but I was surprised by Harry's absent-mindedness in this film. The most impressive set of scenes is when he went to visit his mother, told her that his "business" had improved, bought a luxurious TV for her, but found her mother's emptiness and blindly accepted it for a scam. Tableware stimulant effect of drugs to lose weight. He was considered a player in the game, so he naturally knew the effect of the drug, and he struggled to persuade him, but he fled in front of his mother's humble and persistent dream. In the taxi, he cried because of heartache and family affection, but after the next second of white powder, needle tube, and enlarged pupil lens, his eyes were empty, and all the troubles and pain seemed to have nothing to do with him. When human nature succumbs to drugs, when morality is trampled under the feet of illusions, there is no way to go except sinking to the bottom.
If the drug is too far away from you to feel the helplessness of addiction, what about loneliness? When her husband is gone forever, when her son is addicted to drugs, when she finds out that she is not really needed by anyone, that winning call is like a life-saving straw for a drowning person, giving Sara a purpose in her stagnant life and giving her the opportunity to continue living. The meaning of going down, if you were her, what would happen, would you do anything like her? I don't know if anyone has taken diet pills. Of course, it is the kind with the Chinese medicine quasi-character. I wonder if anyone remembers the effect of the drug? Anorexia is certain, the heartbeat is much faster than usual, the thoughts can't stop, and even the hands are shaking slightly. When the treatment is in the middle, the "surprise" discovers the weight loss, but also finds these symptoms, have you been afraid? ? Have you given up? Some people must not, some people must choose to believe the logo on the medicine box, some people must persevere for a smaller skirt, the dream is so humble, it is so easy for us to choose to destroy a little bit of ourselves, walk on with a smile, Come to the day of being slim and elegant.
Fortunately, fortunately, we are not as persistent as Sara, because we are not as empty as she is. When Sara stared at the TV that her son gave her, with her graceful smile on the winning show in her eyes, everything was irreversible, all her spirits had been burnt out in this dream deception, and there was no meaning in life. , It's a pity, it's a pity that life goes on.
As for Marion, when the drugs have completely separated her mental and physical needs, what is the use of this broken body, it is better to embrace the white powder enough to last for a while, smile and sleep.
It is said that this movie is cruel, desperate, helpless, depressing, and it is not an exaggeration to use all kinds of negative words to annotate it. For example, Pandora's box only locks hope in it. And the most cruel thing is that it is stingy to give even death. The tragic destruction of jade and stone may be a joy, but crushing life a little bit, but still barely leaving a human figure, it is nothing but more torment. I'm just glad that this despair is still far away from me. I don't want the temporary pleasure of drugs, and I don't want the loneliness of Sara.
