@@RebeccaKarsner Damn, somehow I was convinced that she got that Oscar. Performance of a lifetime and Ellen always brings it so that's saying something
@@RebeccaKarsnerYeah, it probably was simply the subject matter of the film that was the metaphorical "Nail in the Coffin" that denied Ellen the Oscar that year. She's my favorite character in this film: tragic, melancholic and deeply disturbing. 🐧🍎🍏💙
I watched this in late high school or early college, and it's been on my list to rewatch for a long time. Jimmy's comment reminded me "oh right, that's probably why it's stayed on that list for so long" haha.
Film critic Roger Ebert had a great line in his review, where he said that although the movie is very R-rated, he thought an exception should be made for any young teens who were considering trying hard drugs - they should be shown the movie, because it "plays like a travelogue of Hell." Great reaction!
During Ellen's monolog the camera shakes a little. When the director went to see why he saw that it was because the camera man was crying so that's the take he used.
I first saw this movie in freshman year of high school for video class. Our teacher originally wanted us to watch the early parts to learn about editing techniques, and this movie is remarkably well edited, but he let us watch the whole thing after school. This movie and the last 20 minutes really haunted me, but I'm honestly thankful I watched it so young. It's a really brutal, raw drama that really left an impression on me in a big way. It's a good cautionary tale about drug addiction and to see the human condition from characters who hit rock bottom. Fantastic movie.
I watched this movie for the first time when I was a freshman in high school. I was visiting my grandparents, and I stayed up late to watch the movie. Literally the minute the "ass to ass" scene started, I heard footsteps on the stairs, and I literally had to sit through that whole scene while my grandfather got a glass of water. The look he gave me, I'll never forget, rofl. It was like, "I'm not going to tell your dad, but what the fuck is wrong with you."
I'd say this movie is one of the best anti drug films ever made. Honestly, show this to kids to scare the hell out of them. But it also covers addiction in many forms. The reason why this movie hits so hard is because of how real it is. Probably everyone knows someone that's struggled with addiction or experienced it in some form yourself. I know many people say they'll never rewatch this film, but I've watched it several times and have it on Blu-ray. Aronofsky may be one of the most original filmmakers going right now. Like he challenges what film can be. His first film Pi is well worth a watch. I really love the Fountain. It's one of the most beautiful sad movies ever made. And Mother! was another original film that I loved. I find it's commentary on humanity very spot on. He doesn't make conventional films and I admire and respect that about Aronofsky. I know his films aren't for everyone but I vibe with them.
I think movies like this are important because it speaks truth to real struggles faced in every family. In fact, I think this movie is part of what drove me to work in emergency healthcare. I liked that job, and I was really proud of my ability to work with and soothe psych patients. But it really wore me down to see so many hospital & facility staff did not give a shit. Anyway, my main takeaway here was that compassion for the suffering of addicts is key to getting through to them. And movies like this help with that
Aronofsky knows how to work with actors maybe more than any other director I know. He just gets all time great performances out of them. Ellen Burstyn in Requiem, Brendan Fraser in The Whale, Mickey Rourke in The Wrestler and of course Natalie Portman in Black Swan. All of them oscar nominated and two of them won. I'm so excited what he does next.
The music was reused in several trailers, including, I think, one of the LotR movies. That's probably why it's familiar, but it's original to this movie.
Ellen Burstyn killed that monologue. This is one of the greatest performances I have ever seen in a movie!!! Absolutely phenomenal!!!! I know this was a tough watch BUT I feel anyone who loves film should at least see this once. Actually they should've been showing this movie in high school to us... probably would've kept some people clean and sober after watching that!!! lol
What I remembered from watching this once many years ago was the music, the arm, the sex party, the monstrous refrigerator and of course the overwhelming bleakness of the ending. I knew Ellen Burstyn was generally great in it but that monologue REALLY hit in a way I don't think I noticed at the time. Maybe because I'm older - that monologue was the only part of the movie that wasn't just about the denial and addiction and the uncaring system, but about the existential dread of regrets and how one chooses what to live for. It stands out to me as much as the ending now. Phenomenal.
This and trainspotting are yearly watches. I've been clean for 28 years but its a nice reminder of why. If you're feeling good at the end of the movie you probably weren't watching it, it's incredible though.
When this came out on DVD, I used to keep it on a loop. I don't even know how many times I've watched it. The music is recognizable because, after the movie's success, everyone started using it in trailers and commercials. They famously re-recorded it with an orchestra and used it in the trailer for The Two Towers, I think. It was THE popular piece of scoring to put with things for a few years. Clint Mansell did a hell of a job with the score, as I think it was his first full film score after quitting his band and doing a couple of tracks for Aronofski's movie Pi. This is based on a novel by Hubert Selby Jr., who did a lot of dark and depressing books that were also very realistic. He co-wrote the script, as well, so it kept all of that without being watered down.
With the exception of some reaction videos like this, I’ve never watched this film again since I originally saw it because I don’t think I could handle it. I love the director and think it’s a brilliant film plus every actor should have received multiple awards for their performances. Ellen Burstyn was robbed of her Oscar for this. Her monologue in the kitchen was one of the best things in cinema.
I really understand people not wanting to watch this movie a second time, but I really like to watch it. I‘m having several problems, for many years now, and I feel like I‘m alone with it, because if I try to share some of it, people usually don’t seem to be able to accept it or understand it or want it. This movie though kind of gives me empathy. Also as I haven’t been able to win my fights yet, the fact that this movie neither has a ray of hope nor a happy ending, kind of gives me empathy and some peace as well weirdly enough. All these happy endings and people saying be your best and be happy make me feel really bad at times, when I look at my life and me struggling. It’s like listening to breakup songs during a breakup I guess.
I've said this many times, the performance from Ellen Burstyn in this movie is one of the best in film history. For me personally, it's in my top 5 favorite performances of all time. It's extraordinary, beyond a masterclass in acting.
I think Ellen's character touches so many people because we all feel some guilt not being able to be there for our mom or grand ma, yet they love us most in the world. It's so heart breaking
That music was sampled by Lil Jon in a song called "Throw it Up" featuring Pastor Troy. It was a pretty popular song, so maybe that's where you heard it.
Also used in some Lord of the Rings promos, it was overall a very memetic song during the late 2000's and early 2010's. "Nicholas Cage Losing His Shit" was probably the most viral use of the main theme in my circles
I went to rehab 16 years ago and a lot of girls were glamorizing drug use for a week or so and wouldn’t stop, so the head counselor had all us come into the tv room and sit down to watch this movie, which stopped the glamorization talk that day. (All the counselors there were available to be pulled aside if the movie was truly too much for some of them)
I think the phenomenon you were describing in which a person seems like a completely different persona is dissociation. If this movie doesn't remind you to call your mother, nothing will. Developing an eating disorder and a drug addiction that late in life is sad.
1.5 Hours of twisting the knife. Everyone would say to cancel all those anti drug assemblies in school and just show this. Felt like that song (Lux Aeterna) was in every other trailer/commercial/video game in the 00s. The composer Clint Mansell does amazing work, check out Smokin Aces if you haven't already.
Ima give you a like & a comment, but I can’t watch this one. It’s a great film, but it’s a little too heavy for me. Edit: I did skip to hear your final thoughts.
2:55 - I just want you to know I became so fond of the "you'll see" insert you used that I tracked down and watched the entire Shaquille O'Neal Presents: All Star Comedy Jam Live From Dallas 2010
I've stopped using any drugs after this one. Just wasn't fun anymore because of this, and I wasn't that young either. I actually watched this movie high in a first place, so...yeah. That's the first time I've sort of watched it again, some bit of it, since 2008. I still don't understand in what kind of depressing ass state of mind you need to be to come up with this story (yeah, I know it is a book adaptation btw) Clint Mansell is a master of the composer for sure. Lux Aeterna is an iconic track used in a lot of other media. And the only one game he did sountrack for is Mass Effect 3, which is my favorite gaming trilogy, and tracks he did were banger as well.
Time is a beast. Watched this film 20 years ago, was in awe and recognised its mastery, and could never rewatch it. This reaction video is the first time I've seen some scenes again and it all came flooding back and I'm instantly immediately back in shock. It made such a deep impression. Back then i watched this film and Irreversible back to back during a movie night with stoner friends. In between i went outside for some air, feeling emptied out. Then after finishing both i left my bike in a daze and walked home, crying about all of it, about humans, about my own problematic future struggles with addiction that i feared. I was right about my issues. I never had this type of rock bottom, but i wasted my life away nevertheless, as a high functioning but low succeeding zombie.
I love Aronofsky's films, they all feel so realistic and don't end with a happy ending which is usually what happens in real life which is why theyre so hard to watch. This was one of the first films I watched in college because I majored in cinematography editing in particular and this film is one of the best to watch for that the professor said, it was something that was never done before. We also had to watch Pi another fantastic film. I think they should show this to high school students instead of doing DARE I think it would be more successful. Sadly I touched opiates before I watched this film but was able to get clean for a decade before relapsing last year but rewatching this reminds me why I should get my shit together and quit for good.
I first watched this on a Valentine's Day since I was home alone and the only thing I knew about this film was the theme music and that it starred Jennifer Connelly. what a mistake that was 😂
Not gonna lie, saw this movie when it first came out, I was in my late 20s-- SEALED THE DEAL FOR ME to just stick with weed!!!! And as I am now 52 and gaining that middle aged pudge, I refuse to ever take diet pills!
I saw this when it came out as well. I'm 54 and my weight issue is it fluctuates. I have ZERO appetite in the summer and right now I'm underweight. It sounds like a "GREAT" problem to have, but it's not good for my heart. Also I feel like I look like an old, skinny nerd. It seems like there's ALWAYS SOMETHING that makes us self conscious (or that's how I, personally feel). But I'm glad to hear you say you won't take diet pills. It's soooo dangerous!!!
Ellen Burstyn is a superior actor. She was in a movie with Sam Shepard called Resurrection in 1980 (the 1999 TV remake with Dana Delany was pointless and boring) . I *very* highly recommend it.
If you're ever in the mood for a sci-fi novel version of this nightmare, read "A Scanner Darkly." There's an animated film version with Keanu Reeves, but it's kind of a misfire imo.
"I don't feel good". is the whole point of the movie. I always believed if this move was a mandatory watch for every teen on the planet, drug addiction would go through the floor.
I watched this movie more han a decade ago, to this day I still can't listen that theme song without going to a super dark place. I wasn't even able to watch this video and just had to skip to your commentary. I deeply regret ever watching it.
I loved the music so much I listened to those tracks a lot separately from the movie, so I think I managed to partly disassociate it from the bleakness.
who did that to you? lol....a downward spiral defined. the editing, soundtrack and acting, especially by Ellen Burstyn, was so good though. the greatest movie you'll never love (or like for that matter).
I love how every comment here is basically "this movie is amazing" "no I'm not offended at all you hated watching it I completely understand why". Accurate.
Jimmy I love you but cmon dawg squeeze s’more of the movie/tv show you’re watching in….. 10 min tv episode/ 20 min movies reactions are like half assed.
Ellen Burstyn gave the performance of a lifetime as Sarah
Yes!! She got robbed that year of an Oscar.
@@RebeccaKarsner Damn, somehow I was convinced that she got that Oscar. Performance of a lifetime and Ellen always brings it so that's saying something
@Knarki She unfortunately lost to Julia Roberts for Erin Brockovich 😫 There's no comparison to the performances.
I whole-heartedly agree! 🐧🍎🍏💙
@@RebeccaKarsnerYeah, it probably was simply the subject matter of the film that was the metaphorical "Nail in the Coffin" that denied Ellen the Oscar that year. She's my favorite character in this film: tragic, melancholic and deeply disturbing. 🐧🍎🍏💙
This goes into the "great movie, never seeing it again" list. Which seems to be Aronofsky's area of expertise.
I watched this in late high school or early college, and it's been on my list to rewatch for a long time. Jimmy's comment reminded me "oh right, that's probably why it's stayed on that list for so long" haha.
Your DARE comment was spot on, this movies scared more kids off of drugs than any government program could.
Pull them in with promises of "ass to ass", leave them with a lesson they'll never forget!
Film critic Roger Ebert had a great line in his review, where he said that although the movie is very R-rated, he thought an exception should be made for any young teens who were considering trying hard drugs - they should be shown the movie, because it "plays like a travelogue of Hell." Great reaction!

The greatest movie that you couldn't fucking pay me to watch again
My immediate thought after viewing this movie was "man, this needs to be a mandatory watch in high-school"
When I was in the Navy, we watched this movie. The Mormon girl in my division walked in and the first thing she heard was "Ass to ass!" 😂
Least rewatchable movie ever.
Only time I watch it is if my fav reactors decide to get their souls wrecked 😅
It was on my "should rewatch that sometime" list for a loooong time. Who knows how long it would've stayed there if this video hadn't dropped!
Incendies 2010 takes the cake 🎂. Was depressed for 2 weeks after that.
Everybody saying they’d never rewatch it. Me, in the early 2000s, owning the DVD and rewatching it frequently. 🤷♀️
Uh-
Are y-. . .You okay, bud?
Same! And showing it to others!

“I don’t feel good”. You and me both man, you and me both…

Gotta watch The Wrestler now to finish off your peak Aronofsky binge lol.
Very good movie & much more palatable than Requiem.
Seen it about the time it came out. Wrestling fan lol.
When this came out on DVD, I used to keep it on a loop. I don't even know how many times I've watched it.

This and American History X are the two hardest, but most realistically tragic movies I've ever seen. They should both be watched at least once.

The song at the start was famously remixed for "The Two Towers" trailer.... The old days of the internet.
I went to rehab 16 years ago and a lot of girls were glamorizing drug use for a week or so and wouldn’t stop, so the head counselor had all us come into the tv room and sit down to watch this movie, which stopped the glamorization talk that day.

I know it was in at least one movie trailer but don't remember the movie.
@@jmalonemyth maybe LOTR-The Two Towers or I Am Legend.
I forgot how sick that movie made me feel
I haven’t seen this since the first and only time I watched it as a teen. it did prevent me for doing drugs. 👍
Now I'm wondering how much of my instinctive avoidance of casual medication is a deeply rooted reaction to this movie when I was in high school haha.
The perfect movie to cut your heart out and stomp all over it.
Every teenager needs to see this
Ima give you a like & a comment, but I can’t watch this one. It’s a great film, but it’s a little too heavy for me.

Not sure I can watch this. Great movie but it is on my watch it once and never again list. lol.
It's not quite "Jurassic Bark" for me, but it's close.
Great movie and music too. Depressing as hell though. Look forward to watching this reaction

You watched this and Irreversible back to back?! 😱 OMG
This was the most terryfing and dark movie I've ever seen, even if it's not a horror movie. All the actors deserved an nomination for their roles.
0:40 🤣
One of the least convincing and most hilarious denials he's done 😂😂
I love Aronofsky's films, they all feel so realistic and don't end with a happy ending which is usually what happens in real life which is why theyre so hard to watch.

I watched this movie knowing nothing about it, unsuspecting eating a bowl of spaghetti and meatballs. Traumatized
Welcome to the never watch it again club. lol. I did buy the score almost immediately after watching the movie so it has that going for it.
Feel good movie of the year
I’m getting comfort reading comments… I wasn’t the only one
I first watched this on a Valentine's Day since I was home alone and the only thing I knew about this film was the theme music and that it starred Jennifer Connelly. what a mistake that was 😂
Just an energetic film about some hip young people with great music, what's not to like!
Watching this movie is not fun at all, but watching people react to it on youtube is hilarious 😂
The most uncomfortable, amazing movie of all time. Nothing hits harder than this. Ellen Burstyn is unmatched.
I love your reactions
Thank you kindly.
Not gonna lie, saw this movie when it first came out, I was in my late 20s-- SEALED THE DEAL FOR ME to just stick with weed!!!! And as I am now 52 and gaining that middle aged pudge, I refuse to ever take diet pills!
I saw this when it came out as well. I'm 54 and my weight issue is it fluctuates. I have ZERO appetite in the summer and right now I'm underweight. It sounds like a "GREAT" problem to have, but it's not good for my heart. Also I feel like I look like an old, skinny nerd. It seems like there's ALWAYS SOMETHING that makes us self conscious (or that's how I, personally feel).
But I'm glad to hear you say you won't take diet pills. It's soooo dangerous!!!
Ellen Burstyn is a superior actor. She was in a movie with Sam Shepard called Resurrection in 1980 (the 1999 TV remake with Dana Delany was pointless and boring) . I *very* highly recommend it.
"AESSS TO AESSS!".
I'm not sure WHERE I saw people sort of referencing this as a meme, but I know they did haha.
If you're ever in the mood for a sci-fi novel version of this nightmare, read "A Scanner Darkly." There's an animated film version with Keanu Reeves, but it's kind of a misfire imo.
idk if i can watch this movie again.
Lol I know it’s rough. But for some reason I could not stop cracking up at your reactions to this shit. Lmao.
To me this movie is perfect.
Love this movie. Are you familiar with the Flanagan shows on Netflix? If you like well acted, touching monologues, he does them very well.
"I don't feel good". is the whole point of the movie. I always believed if this move was a mandatory watch for every teen on the planet, drug addiction would go through the floor.
I watched this movie more han a decade ago, to this day I still can't listen that theme song without going to a super dark place. I wasn't even able to watch this video and just had to skip to your commentary.
I deeply regret ever watching it.
I loved the music so much I listened to those tracks a lot separately from the movie, so I think I managed to partly disassociate it from the bleakness.
Great movie that I won’t watch again lol 😂
Ugh, I feel ya. This is an amazing movie, but puts viewers through the wringer.
The most hopeless movie ever made. Masterfully done, though.
Hey Jimmy, I don't know if you've seen it off youtube or not, but I feel like you'd like the movie "Arrival" from 2016. Just a suggestion. c:
who did that to you? lol....a downward spiral defined. the editing, soundtrack and acting, especially by Ellen Burstyn, was so good though. the greatest movie you'll never love (or like for that matter).
I love how every comment here is basically "this movie is amazing" "no I'm not offended at all you hated watching it I completely understand why". Accurate.
This is one fucked up movie...
Jimmy I love you but cmon dawg squeeze s’more of the movie/tv show you’re watching in….. 10 min tv episode/ 20 min movies reactions are like half assed.
