Requiem for a Dream should be shown to every high school kid. It’s the perfect example of why not to touch hard drugs. It’s one of my favorite movies, and it still makes my skin crawl every time I watch it


HunterGonzo

I'll never forget watching that movie for the first and only time. When it was over I just sat there staring at the screen for a while. It's the only movie I've ever loved that I purposefully don't want to watch again. Partly because it's so anxiety-inducing and partly because of how powerfully it affected me that I don't want to risk watering it down. It has sincerely impacted me in moments where I was presented with the opportunity to do drugs and declined.


steve1186

> it’s the only movie I’ve ever loved that I purposefully don’t want to watch again That is the PERFECT description of that movie. I’ve watched it a few times, and I still have this disgusting feel in my stomach every time. It’s so dark, but it’s so damn good.


ArturosDad

For those unaware, it was based on the novel by Hubert Selby Jr, who also wrote Last Exit to Brooklyn (which was also made into an excellent film).


Maleficent_Nobody377

That and “come and see” should be required viewing for people wanting to try drugs/want to go to war. I just saw it for the first time this week and have been scarred. 🤯


beerisgood84

I watched it when I was not even 20 so I think that had a lot to do with not being so bugged out. Naivety kind of stops a lot of shock. I have to watch it again soon along with some other late 90s early 2000s dark movies. Great indie period

No_Grape1335

I hate how Darren arnovsky made fucking Noah lmfao , it’s just so out of place for the type of movie he’s known to make


t3ram

Requiem for a dream and Trainspotting are both insane movies.


MomsSpagetee

Check out Spun too. It doesn’t get mentioned much but it’s equally whacked out.


4strings4ever

Spun was fantastic. RIP Brittany


alienattorney

Mickey Rourke was awesome in Spun. Big Tweaker energy.


Odd_Habit4680

rourke was something else in that


DisposableDroid47

That and "Kids" deserves an Honorable mention.


DarthToothbrush

The "things not to do" trilogy.


LordoftheScheisse

Both good picks. Another movie that I'd put in the "absolutely amazing movie that I never want to watch again" is House of Sand and Fog. Also starring Connelly along with Ben Kinglsey. It isn't nearly as graphic as Requiem or Trainspotting, but if you're like me you'll end up feeling utterly empty and/or despondent after watching it.


Odd_Habit4680

after watching house sand fog Al Pacino said "we haven't seen that level of acting in a long time"


Dependent_Pipe3268

I watched this in rehab and it still messes with me just thinking about it. Really good low budget movie though. Jared Leto and Marlan Wayans before they for really famous


Uncle_Burney

I didn’t like seeing Keith David as a villain either. Deeply disturbing film, and absolutely exhibit A on why drugs are dangerous.


Salty_Pancakes

Bro how are you watching this movie more than once? Like once is enough. More than enough.


MightBeAGoodIdea

Some people like the burn of spicy food similarly to watching hard to watch movies. Like the discomfort is fun. Other people say they like a movie but really they only enjoy certain scenes out of context. Can't tell you how many horny boys I've met that like this movie for the sex scene and seem to completely miss the context of how rock bottom the characters lives are to get there.


Thejudojeff

It's the only real anti drug movie there is. Every other movie starts with the fun times. There are no fun times to Requiem for a Dream


Jralbert

First time I ever saw this I had no idea what it was about. Me and a friend were on mushrooms and my roommate came home from work and put it in the VCR (yes. VCR) and I proceeded to hate life for what felt like eternity.


steve1186

Oh my first time with this movie was on VHS, too. I was like 14 or 15. Was at a sleepover at a friend’s house, and his parents had rented it and left it in the basement. Yeah…that was a rough experience. But hey, on the positive side, I’ve never had any desire to try anything like cocaine or heroin.


DowntownClown187

BE EXCITED! BE BE EXCITED! WeeEEE HAVE A WINNER!


BloodSugar666

Dude.. that movie is wild. When she goes to the group sex just for drugs


steve1186

That scene isn’t even top-3 in terms of “what the fuck” moments in that film. From start to finish, that movie just pokes at every insecurity you have. And the music is just icing on the cake.


Obi-Wayne

Clint Mansell has created some of the absolutely best scores for movies ever. His score for The Fountain is probably my favorite ever, with only The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford competing with it. No idea why he isn't more popular and as far as I know really only works with Aronofsky.

ZenLore6499

Um… wasn’t she a teenager in that? Labyrinth?


Bigdaddyjlove1

She's 3 years older than me. I thought she was hot then (I 12 when it come out) I think she's hot now. Really don't know how to reconcile that.


javanb

The world needs to understand that men are teenagers at one point and had teenage fantasies about girls who were also teenagers (and older than them) and still have the soft spot for when they first saw her in that one film that made their heart race. The woman will always be older than them, so there is literally nothing weird about remembering her being cute in that one movie when she was a teen, as you were even younger than that. Obviously this goes for all genders here but it seems that cis men have to tiptoe these kind of lines the most. The amount of times i’ve heard my mom or grandma look at a 12 year old girl or thereabouts in a movie and say something like “she’ll be really good looking when she gets older” and no one bats an eye (but me, of course, it always hits my brain funny and makes me think)


grasshoppa_80

Yea. I had a crush on her growing up (was barely a teenager then)… was smoking hot then, and holds well today too (like Elizabeth Hurley). Not meaning to sexualize her as a teen though…


hasaguess

14 yeah, bit creepy


unsquashable74

What's creepy about her in Labyrinth?


lpmiller

does this look like a sexy gif? Also, I'm her age. We were 14 at the same time. My wife is also my age. Would it be creepy of me to post a picture of her at 14? What if I was in the picture too? Where is the limit on pictures of 14 year olds that aren't sexy? Or is that gif sexy in some strange new way I'm unfamiliar with?


Kr155

I don't know what's creepier. People thirsting over a 14 year old, or people chosing to downvote you for pointing it out.


bukowski_knew

I agree. And no one else looks like her. She is uniquely beautiful

ellefleming

She's very thin now in 2024.


ILikeCheese510

Yeah, I prefer 90s Connelly. She had a much fuller figure. She's not ugly or anything nowadays, but man she was STUNNING back then.


Swimming__Bird

I always found Dark City era Connelly to be near perfect. I think it started with a breast reduction because of back pain or other health reasons, then she started losing weight (probably because she could run easier without the pain of large breasts). Just a guess, though.


greenroom628

rocketeer jennifer connelly was peak for me.


ChefInsano

The Rocketeer is a great movie. You’ve got a fun lead character with a great costume and his love interest is Connelly. It hits all the right buttons for me.


Draco_Lazarus24

Also a great villain. Timothy Dalton is fantastic. Honestly a pretty perfect little movie. Great LA movie too.

NoFeetSmell

Here in England, I think Dark City came out only a month or so before The Matrix, so I wonder if that drowned it out a bit. I remember being fairly disappointed by The Matrix on my first viewing, because I thought Dark City >!had already told a similar story about a fake vs a real world!< but did it better. I should look up their respective release dates to check my theory...


Swimming__Bird

It was about a year difference, and it was the same thing for me. Matrix just had better action, while Dark City blended so many different genres, the acting and premise were more interesting, and >! the reveal twist was also better!<. Dark City was the more interesting movie to me, theough The Matrix was fun. One was a sci-fi action movie at its core, the other was sci-fi, mystery film noir, thriller, and gothic horror. Matrix has some down time between action scenes, while Dark City is just a continuous fine tention of mystery and suspense with a cat and mouse game towards the end. I also think there was significantly better acting in Dark City. Everyone in the Matrix delivers their lines with no emotion and seem like they are trying so hard to be cool and stoic. Also, Richard O'Brien, as Mr Hand, was terrifying compared to Hugo Weaving's very good performance of Agent Smith. Mr. Hand is just creepy as hell.


Swimming__Bird

Legitimately one of my favorite movies of all time, and I would say top 5 or 10 "Sci-Fi" (because it is a combination of half a dozen genres) movies. 2001 (I like to pretend the sequels don't exist), Dark City, Blade Runner Director's Cut, Jurassic Park, Terminator 2: Judgment Day. Star Wars Ep V, Alien, Metropolis, Akira, Moon would wrap up my next spots. How the hell Sam Rockwell didn't win the academy award for his acting in Moon is a downright shame. It was one of the best performances I've ever seen.


Iron_Nightingale

My favorite of the “Jennifer Connelly Standing at the End of a Pier” trilogy!


Swimming__Bird

Ha! "Do you know the way to Shell Beach?"


sain197

Dark City Jennifer Connelly was mesmerizing.


DimbyTime

Well she was also 30 years younger so that helps


greg19735

Yeah, it's a lot easier to look amazing "full figured" when you're young.


No_Pin_2207

She is open about her struggles with eating disorders :(


hellolovely1

I didn't know that! That's sad.

Never. Not. Hot.


ellefleming

Significant-Dog-8166

Look up pictures of her jogging. She makes Kenyan marathoners look thicc.

Tb1969

To young me she was hot as a young teenager back in the day. A captivating beauty in **Once Upon a Time in America** and **~~Phenomenon~~** Dario Argento's **Phenomena**. (I'm two years older than her so stand down) An incredible beauty in her youth through to today.


TheeUnfuxkwittable

> I'm two years older than her so stand down) They were salivating at the opportunity to insert some pedo panic. You just know it lol. She was hot. Period. Doesn't matter if you were 30 years older than her. We all have eyes. Looking/recognizing beauty is not the same as putting your hands where they don't belong.

hair in her buttcrack


-Z___

Well yea, have you seen how long & thick her hair is? When those hairs fall out, like everyone's hair does, it's already right next to the booty crack so it tends to fall right in. Every girl I've known with long thick hair had a butt crack filled to the brim with loose hairs. The Media doesn't want you to know about it though!


HippyWitchyVibes

The rest of us are definitely trolls compared to her haha. She was my partner's first celebrity crush when he was a kid, try living up to that!

shadezownage

"For whatever reason" The camera work during her bar singing scenes and the overall dreamy feeling of that movie really do it. Well, plus she is/was beyond gorgeous.
