Requiem for Dreams

I like the name of this movie, very realistic name. At first, I didn't know why it was called this name, but after watching the movie, I suddenly realized. They all have their own dreams and are ultimately worth sinking into in reality. It hurts my heart to see everyone walking into the abyss step by step.
Dream Requiem? Why is the name so ironic? Dreams are dead, what's the use of Requiem? I started laughing at myself. Where is my dream? Will it be like Marianne? I once had a gorgeous dream, and once thought I was about to touch it. But what about in the end? To survive, to give up dignity. Betray yourself in the carnival of a group of people. The favorite scene in the whole movie is her curled up in the water, and the most shocking thing is her cry in the water. But what's the point of all this? After awakening, it is only a deeper sinking. Such a pale human.
Sarah was so lonely that she humanized the refrigerator, but that humanization brought her fear. Seems dead when she says none of them need her. It turned out to be such a simple joy when someone needed it. Her love, her fears, her dreams, her everything, so sad. With no one to accompany her, she struggled to find the meaning of life. She dreams of being on TV, but she actually dreams of someone to rely on. She misses her husband, her son, and her grandson, because she is lonely and because she is afraid.
Does Harry have dreams? Yes, he also wants to live a good life with the person he loves, so he thought about Marianne in red waiting for him by the sea. However, he was addicted to drugs and there was nothing he could do.
That black man deeply loved his mother.

Director's technique:
1. Fisheye lens shows Sarah's distortion;
2. Sarah and Marianne's bizarre movements after betraying themselves, showing that they are like walking dead;
3. Close-up of drug use shots
4. Segmentation of the picture, not Know why? Is it to show the isolation between characters? I don't like this way very much
5. The black man and his girlfriend XOXO are very beautiful

    Sure enough, I downloaded 720P and finished it very smoothly. Poor people who need to ingest things that hurt their body to continue living...

    I can't see it at a glance. Life without drugs may not be good, but if you smoke it, it will not be good. Zero-sum inference, it may not really be able to pee into a pot with this whistle-blowing form, and it can be repeated in anti-drugs. The educational significance of reading is indeed strong, but it also comes from the indiscriminate bombardment of poor audio-visual.
