  • It bothers me reading these comments. You all haven't grasped the meaning of the movie. I'll let you just sit here and come up with some more bull. Let it be a mystery cause I'm not wasting my time telling you all.

  • lol

  • On The Internet No one Knows You're a Cat

  • This is the worst movie I've ever seen. Not because it sucked, but because it made me feel awful! I hated the fact that Sara was mentaly disabled. Ahe was so proud of her son, and wanted everyone to see him, she wanted to see him too, but he ends up in prison. I hate that there are no epilogue of this movie! I want Sara to see Harry again, and the fact that she doesn't bothers me much more than I'd ever thought a movie would make me do!

  • @lisemafise1 The movie isnt about Sara being mentally disabled. Its not about the storyline. The movie is conveying how we go through life and analyses social relationships and social pressures.

    For example when the main character visits his mom and hes trying to stop her from taking uppers. Our parents rarely ever listen to what we're saying because they're in their own world. We lie to them about ourselves and it is rarely a trustful relationship. People talk at each other not to each other.

  • @lisemafise1 Well, yeah. That's pretty much the point of the movie. It's not supposed to be some happy little joy ride to the candy store. It's called "Requiem for a Dream" for a reason. It's made to be fucked up and make you feel sick.

  • @ninjastalker92 I didn't complain about the story of the movie, I just expressed my opinion. No reason to such an ass...

  • @lisemafise1 Welcome to the internet, where people are asses. Also, your opinion sucks.

  • @ninjastalker92 The infantility is overwhelming !

  • @lisemafise1 Why thank you. I'm flattered.

  • @lisemafise1 i think your the one who's mentally disabled if you think sara is mentally disabled, and i'm not entirely sure but i don't think harry goes to jail because in the last scenes you see him amputated on a stretcher, though he is asked if he's well to work and he says no...

  • @itwasme356 Because they worked in the prison.... That's why they asked. When it comes to that mentally disabled thing, i used the wrong verb, I meant BECAME, she became a vegtable after the failed electrical shock treatment. In the last scene of the movie, it's pretty clear that Sara is locked inside her own head, where she keeps reliving her dream, where she could show the World her successful son.

  • Her face is so creepy O_O

  • This movie is terrible.

  • @ElPellegrinense1 I disaree, and agree. What happens is terrible, but the movie is so good, that it gives you the terrible feeling too, so it's a good terrible movie.

  • Comment removed

  • This makes absolutely no F****** sense! >:O

  • @5thcenturyad You would have to watch the movie... I hope you have a heart of lead, because it is NOT an easy movie to watch. At all.

  • @shortmage my heart is made of lead, nothing effects me. My grandmother died today, I simply said "ah well that sucks, I thought it was about her time." and now i'm here. You?

  • @suckmylol Well, the thing is, that I have this tendency to watch movies like this whenever I'm depressed to almost deliberately make myself feel worse, which somehow makes me feel better. I've been through hell and high water, but even after watching this movie... I feel like I wanna kill myself (Not literally) after watching this movie because of how authentic and real it is.

  • this was fuckin' sick I had nightmares because of this for days.!!

  • @5thcenturyad agains her addiction to amphetamins

  • @5thcenturyad the women took a lot of drugs and get psychological problems. so they try to heal with the electrycal shocks. ;)

  • this movie changed me I swore not to criticize anyone ever again

  • @federicabau same here when she is asking for help on the subway and everyone just blows her off i felt so bad! never assume the worst and always lend a helping hand

  • @jmvknows01 It is very true my friend...

  • Ok this is what actually happened, lots of these comments are wrong. She was given amphetamines as diet pills, but got amphetamine psychosis from them and was given electro-convulsive therapy. In real life however ECT is not a therapy for psychosis and is always administered under general anaesthetic, so in that aspect the movie was inaccurate (as are nearly all depictions of ECT in the media).

  • She got addicted to wight loss pills and went insane because she never got to be on tv. and after a bunch of psychotherapy treatments didnt work the do electroshock therapy. (: trippy freaking movie

  • @5thcenturyad She is undergoing Electrocution Therapy. She unknowingly signed a waiver nearly shoved in her face by a doctor and signed it, probably without even hearing a word the doctor was saying. Next thing you know she's getting shocked. It didn't work :(

  • Comment removed

  • @5thcenturyad she went crazy speeding on diet pills, lost reality. received electric shock treatment because everyone thought she was on heroin I think

  • @justkuhn88 Nobody thought she was on heroin, they just knew she had lost it.

  • @5thcenturyad Why don't you actually go watch the movie instead?

  • @BreckR Because I was addicted to heroin for 8 years. I managed to stop using 3 years ago thanks to methadone. It took another 2 years to come off the methadone. Now I am drug-free and have no intention of associating with addicts, watching films about heroin or doing anything that might trigger my desire to use again.

  • @5thcenturyad

    THEN STOP WATCHING!!!!!

    ...dont want you falling off the wagon again.

    but seriously...good for you!

  • @5thcenturyad

    The Woman was on 1960's diet pills (basically pure amphetamines) and she lost her mind, so doctors reccomended the treatment, and she was so fucked up, she just took it. 

  • is that one of the waynes brothers in the beggining?

  • @azrapper666 If you mean Wayans, yes. It's Marlon Wayans.

  • if this is what drugs does to you than im all in

  • @5thcenturyad I've never seen the movie. But it looks like shock therapy, Which is an old method of making psychotic patients easier to handle by destroying brain cells with each shock. Just makes them more dopey and relaxed kind of like lobotomy.

  • @5thcenturyad Well she was on diet pills and wasn't eating even when they tried feeding her. Their last solution was to try shock therapy.

  • @5thcenturyad they wanna create a frankenstein

  • LOL , some of the comments. ... Its just a movie with poor acting. I thought she looked hilarious when she was getting shocked. If I saw someone getting shocked in real life, obviously I would be sympathetic, but this is just a movie. Movies are not reality.

  • @5thcenturyad The woman had an addiction to diet pills and they just thought she was crazy, which she is. This movie is very hard to explain, its best if you watch the movie for yourself.

  • Whoa sounds trippy as fuck in headphones

  • Jezus fucking Christ; this is what happens when u dont use your bloody brains when trying out shit/you dont know what the hell u mess with. What a movie... Im not even watching this; to depressing im afraid...

  • Well, I think nothing beats the rape and the killing with fire extinguisher in "Irreversible" but this one comes very close!

  • I've had ect shock therapy. Its not as crazy as they make it out to be in the movies. I'm just an everyday average looking guy and so were the others that were getting ect.

  • This part is scarier than any other scary movie out there...

  • reality

  • @5thcenturyad She just had an overdose of drugs which ended in that she refused the general treatments, so the doctors used electric shock therapy on her. Though u wont understand it too much till u wants the movie.

  • How the heck were you not traumatised while editing this clip? x/ 

  • they're real, and they're spectacular. 

  • Comment removed

  • THIS IS A FAKE MOVIE

  • @5thcenturyad Just watch it.

    It can't be explain.

    You need to watch it to understand.

    Well, it can be explain but it will never reflect the awesomness of this movie.

  • @Dree12334 well, this movie is cool just because its all made for hollywood. but for a drug movie, its stupid. movies like Blow and Scarface are real movies that are based on true stories. so if you like fake movies and your an idiot then watch requiem, but if you want a real movie that will change your life watch Blow, its real.

  • @MrDelight666 I replied to one of your comment on an another requiem for a dream video.

    You didn't like the movie, I get it.

    But why do you watch so many of those videos then ?

  • @Dree12334 shut up, this shit sucks and so does anyone (you) who likes it. so, HAHAHA, got cha

  • @Dree12334 I agree!

  • hm showing this in schools wouldn't solve the problem. get the root of the problem: why in a so called civilized society, we have people falling into addiction?

  • When I watched this movie I felt so bad for them.. then i rolled another joint

  • @Sm0k4bl3 You are pretty much an idiot

  • @filipminic91 How is that your problem?:D go fuck yourself

  • @5thcenturyad watch the movie...

  • ...Good job?

  • People's reactions to this film are sick and disgusting. How can you a#$holes sit there and watch a film about people dying and say crap like that? I'm guessing that a lot of you are Americans and I have to say, if everyone else in your country is as compassionless and bloodthirsty as you, your society is doomed.

  • this film is an aronofsky masterpiece!!!! how dare you! who in hell told you your incompetant little fingers had the requisite skills to edit this impeccable work of art? you,sir...are an asshole

  • @ebuz218 Oh chill the f&$k out.

  • @ebuz218 this in its self is a work of art inspired by someone elses art. are you suggesting the suppression of expression and artistic creation due to your own small minded view on material you like? how dare you, you ignorant piece of shit.

  • @DEATHROTT666 hey what's the 666 for at the end of your name? is that the total number of dicks that you've sucked on over the years? say, why not blow me and make it 667...whaddya say?

  • requiem for a dream was a very insightful movie that taught me many things. most importantly it taught me what to ask for at a strip club:

    ASS TO ASS!

  • a little bit hard to masturbate to if you ask me...

  • @SodaPopJohnson

    WTF seriously?!?! masturbating? o.O

  • 1:47 that is perhaps the scariest thing i have ever seen in my life

  • i think this movie is particularry touching for weed smokers cause u recognize some things in their addictions wich u never tought of in that way before

  • This viddeo does not make me wanna do drugs

  • I don't really like this experiment. Taking things out of context and then adding the overwhelming random sound sort of turns it into more of a horror movie type clip than anything.

  • OMFG ,,,,, THE FUCK DRUG ,, SXE

  • never seen the film, but this totally creeps me out...in a good way. if there is a good way to be creeped out...

  • i feel so sorry for all these people, but for the mother most....

  • ok.... that's weird

  • wtf is qoin on 1:20

  • @SuperJeff222 She is receiving electro conclusive therapy [ECT], becuase she developed psychosis while taking amphetamine pills.

  • well done!

  • OMG. I will never smoke again.

  • nobody is getting raped.Tyrone's character is shown suffering from withdrawal in the prison ,while Sarah is undergoing electro-convulsive therapy in an institute.

  • My family resembles this movie in so many ways. My younger brother overdosed 3 times and has also been arrested multiple times, he is serving time right now in the pen. My older brother overdosed and fell down a flight of stairs. They found him 3 days later and had to amputate his leg above the knee. Mom is on so many meds she can hardly cope. Welcome to the real world of drugs. It's a straight up journey to hell before the devil knows your dead.

  • Comment removed

  • wait is she getting fucked?

  • @AKAtv2100 worse

  • @lukacho5 well it dosn't exactly look like rape

    ive neva seen the movie so i dnt know

  • @AKAtv2100....You are right.Nobody is getting raped.Tyrone is struggling with withdrawal in prison,while Sarah is receiving electro-convulsive therapy in an institute,and her son Harry needs an amputation of the left upper limb due to extensive thrombophlebitis.Harry's girlfriend starts sleeping around in order to be able to lay hands on more of the stuff that she is so addicted to.You have to watch this movie.One of the greatest.

  • top coment is so true.. my friend told to watch this. just a movie about some stoners an shit. so i smoked my weed got really focused on the movie and yea. it`s weird feeling a the end, like u have witnessed something i dunno..whateva i`m high again making no sense :>

  • DAYYYUM! THIS IS TRIPPY!

  • Always wondered... What is that white stuff that when Tyron is a prisoner?

  • Show this in schools = 90% less future druggies.

    Problem Solved!

  • @andrew5500 haha i know right?

  • @andrew5500 Yes drugs are the problem. Lol. Let's be hypocrite and teach them there's a God and the US is the most awesome country, you know what lets make them believe we don't do harm in third world countries and that we're all good and friendly. Let's tell them we need banks and governments to control our lives, cause we would be nowhere without them. You know tobacco and alcohol cause more harm or the fat crap you can buy in snackstores?

  • @andrew5500 Unfortunately druggies are by their very nature immune to/oppositely influenced to things like that. Look at the "lol drugs rule" comments on trailers for Trainspotting.

  • im not planing on geting myself in any other drug than weed

    this movie scares the sht out of me.

  • very creative and this film was good not great but good and I only smoke weed lol :)

  • Majority of white people do this shit. They take their bodies to the extreme and know no limits. They have no direction in life and believe in nothing but themselves. People like this have no beliefs in life and think it's a journey to learn oneself by trying this shit. It's pretty pathetic and this movie takes you to crazy land. Nobody needs to take drugs to make themselves open up their minds. I'm pretty sure whoever is watching this movie has done some sort of drugs, so they relate to.

  • @lamal3 There are people like that in every race, not just white people.

  • @lamal3 speaking from experience, "opening your mind" isn't the only reason you do drugs. It's an escape. It's a chance to feel good in an otherwise hopeless life. That doesn't mean addicts are without direction either. It helps you feel as if work isn't work at all. The most meaningless of tasks are enjoyable.

  • @lamal3

    Cry much?

  • @lamal3 yeah you sounds pretty dumb/closed minded

  • no more cocaine ... this movie say the TRUTH

  • @ninik06 it's heroin not cocaine

  • @PortalTutorials oh sorry yes heroine

  • this isnt a dream, that was a fucking nightmare, gave me a headache, your experience worked

  • don't do drugs...smoke marijuana :D

  • I stopped watching at 1:44, everything was crazy before that, but I just couldn't take the mother getting electrocuted. This wrenches my heart, just like the ending of the movie. I was depressed after watching the movie for a few days, it's really something...different, even when I watch videos of it, I feel the sadness brewing. I love this movie, but I hate it at the same time, a lot of movies are "sad" dramas, but this movie right here is true sadness and depression,

  • This fucking movie ... it gave me anxiety and panic attacks for several days afterwards..

  • I WAS gonna go blaze.. not anymore.............

  • Is this a family film? lol

  • @turtleface91 havnt seen the movie but i doubt it lol.

  • @turtleface91 Yes.

  • Soooo... whats the "experiment" and what are the results ???

  • was this guys high when he was dreaming?.......

    oh wait...

  • мега фильм

  • @jonlive100 cuz she got some pills like mdma for being thin.

  • why was the grandma getting shocked

  • @jonlive100 She was a mother... That's what drugs do to users.

  • I watched this movie for Health Class so my teacher can "Can scare Us" into not doing drugs. I have to admit it's a good movie but the end scene he tried to block with his body (we have a smart board) and man, it didn't work at all!

  • Sarah is getting ECT but I don't think there's any state or country in the west that performs it on concious patients anymore. But it was effective for the story. And you can't tell what actually is taking place in that gauntlet and what represents the characters feelings.

  • dont watch this video at night it scared me for some reason

  • Do anybody know what are they doing to her? I mean to Sara, the old lady...?

  • @Mafidog1

    Electro magnetic shock therapy.

    A long time ago, it was considered viable treatment. Now it's just barabric.

  • @Mafidog1

    Electroconvulsive therapy. It's like a less deadly version of the electric chair used to help people with psychiatric problems.

    A long time ago, it was considered viable treatment. Now it's just barabric.

  • @Mafidog1

    Electroconvulsive therapy. It's like a less deadly version of the electric chair used to help people with psychiatric problems. Usually it is done aenethsitised - but awake like this is very similar to electroshock thereapy - and exceedingly dangerous.

    A long time ago, it was considered viable treatment. Now it's just barabric.

  • I WAS GNNA DO CRACK FOR THE FIRST TIME . . . WATCHED THIS IM SCARED AF . . . IVE DONE WEED PILLS METH . . . Sad Part? Im Bareley 16 :(

    And Now That Ive Seen This I Dnt Wanna Do Druqs Anymore :'(

  • Dont ruin youre life man.. stay off that stuff or stick with something natural.

  • @MamahhSkitsoee, don't ever do crack, it gets you high for 10 minutes and severely addicted very fast. It's good this film had an affect on you, this is an honest story about the extremes of addiction and not a propaganda media scare story.

  • shit makes me sick

  • Depressive movie.

  • @markdion she was nominated for an oscar but was pipped by julia roberts for erin brokovich

  • Why didn't the old lady get a oscar? or did she?

  • Very well done.

    I feel ill, which is good, because it made me feel something... I think you know what I mean, Again, very well done.

  • Whats all that white stuff they are digging when Tyron is in prison at the end of the film? :/

    Amazing film... Life changing and depressing but still.. Amazing

  • what were they doing 2 that ald lady?

  • @TheTibi10 Electroshock therapy. Apparently it helps if your mind isnt balanced.

  • they havent pulled out the plug from the mouthguard

  • thank god i only smoke weed

  • @razzdia123 wich can be addictive and is a gateway most who smoke end up on harder things or use the inelligence from their surviving brain cells and quit whos dumb enough to start any way??

  • @poetry551 u dont smoke weed do u? most of the shit they tell u about weed isnt even true , i say legalize weed, farm it, tax it , then boom the economy is better off than it was

  • @brotherofshadows1 actually you can get lung cancer and severe heart problems and smoked weed has 3 times the tar that cigarettes do just because negative effects arent immediate doesnt mean they dont exist you are at 4 times of a higher risk of heart attack for smoking weed genius and how will this country fare if every one is strung out on marajiuana??

  • @poetry551 O rly? Are these facts based from when you smoke it out of a pipe, joint, bong or vap? There are many way to smoke weed and as someone who smokes weed and cigarettes, I can tell you cigs have way more tar than weed. Weed has resin that will build up in pipes but smoking through a water filtered pipe or using a vap reduces the amount of resin completely when used right. Its still not as healthy as not smoking at all but its not nearly as bad as health professionals and science assumes.

  • @poetry551 epic fail.

  • @razzdia123 wat the fuck is wrong with u?dont do drugs period dumbass

  • Fuck you! I wont do what you tell me.

  • @Scrappy1138 RATM?

    

  • @Lasekfraek What the fuck is wrong with YOU?

    You never smoke cigarettes and never drink alcohol? After 15 years of smoking, I can tell that cigarettes are a much worse addiction, then weed..

    --

    By the way, here in the Netherlands, I buy my weed in a shop just like I would buy a beer in another shop..

    --

    Forget the above, if you dont count weed to drugs ;)

  • @Lasekfraek

    Oh, and better go smoke a joint with some friends in a nice location and have some laughs, instead of being a cod nerd, shooting others all day and having no social life..(at least your channel looks like that)

  • @razzdia123 i smoked weed 2 years than i consumed lsd

  • @razzdia123 One of the huge themes of this movie is that anything can be addictive. Even precious marijuana.

  • I love this movie!!!!!!!!

  • Fucking nightmare, especially that old lady is raped psychologically.

    Awesome scary movie with the amazing song Requiem For A Dream, I would recommend it to everyone! Epic Drama on the top!

  • I felt the worst for marion because at least the others couldnt really get their hands on drugs where they were at the end of the movie... marion's character was not resolved as much as the others...

  • Screw D.A.R.E. This movie will scare kids from using drugs for the rest of their lives. Guaranteed.

  • @xDejahx you're completely right

  • @xDejahx haha ikr

  • Is all that we see or seem

    But a dream within a dream?

  • I think I felt most sorry for the mom with all that she went through. You don't want to think that this kind of maltreatment happens in the US, but it does...

  • fuck youtube adverts

  • This is what it is like to watch this movie on triple C's....22 to be exact....only ur eyes cant stay on the TV so u keep moving them up to the TV just to have them go back down and all u hear is the theme song....very very VERY trippy song when on them...stopped doing them 3 years ago but damn....GOOD memories

  • im gonna puke just seeing this stuff makes me like cringe

  • the shock treatment is so disgusting

  • @gravyhouse i think it's funny as hell, personally

  • i watched this at 3 in the morning by myself in summer camp and it scarred me
