Requiem_For_A_Dream

Requiem For A Dream Everyone knows about the dangers of drug abuse, but once you’ve seen the movie Requiem for a Dream, you will definitely think again before doing drugs. The main theme in Requiem for a Dream is the search for happiness and how it often times leads to addiction. We watch the lives of the three main characters become undone by their various addictions, and the film shows how their lives are a free-fall into their own separate hells. All of the things that were once important in their lives are not, and they live their lives depending on the drugs that have taken over them. This film depicts addiction perfectly, showing how all of their energy and efforts are directed to getting the next “hit” regardless of the personal cost. From the first scene of the film we see Sara, one of the main characters, and learn that her life revolves around watching television and eating chocolates. While this is not a serious addiction, it still shows the temporary relief from her outside life.
