We should all thank him for bringing Brendan Fraser back.
So looking forward to The Whale!!! Miss seeing Brendan Fraser...
One of the best directors from our time.
Hes a genius. He does what a great director does. He challenges you.
I think that he makes it crystal clear where he's from in his films and I love that. unlike most people I have watched Requiem for a Dream and Pi a bunch of times because I was fascinated by the setting, music, story, the book, the lack of budget, and the filmmaking techniques. The author of requiem for a dream was also from New York, he actually makes an appearance at the end of requiem for a dream but most people have no idea because it's such an intense scene that it's pretty much the last thing people are gonna notice if you just watch it once. Love Aaronofsky, I am a bit obsessed with him because he's one of the directors that really shaped my fundamental understanding of film
I know Americans don't like being criticised but for me personally, Brendan proved himself long time ago as a serious actor in the movie "The Quiet American" alongside Michael Cane- the movie sheds light on America's influence in the world and the birth of the CIA!
Who likes being criticized?
The Quiet American, the novel, I think came out in the late 1950s. It was an important document that helped the public discuss the government's Cold War foreign policy.
gods and monsters
Sir Ian McKellan complimented Brendan Frazier’s acting, watching his face for his “thought process” as Boone. I see Fraser as a “reactor”. I am a singer who studied acting first. Sir Ian is so right. Director Aronovsky caught some magic.
The fountain is my favorite movie of all time.
Amazing movie. I was impressed.
His movie “The Wrestler” touched me in ways a movie never has
Call the cops.
Oh it did? Huh?
mother! was ridiculously well crafted
its beyond words what aronofsky has created & inspired me.. idk if I Would dig so much into the depts of reality without Pi & the fountain. its a shame that the Budget for it got cut in half.. i just can imagine how much the dying Star Scene Would be even More mindblowing.. the amount of metaphors you get to discover while watching mother, is intense. without any attempt of trying to be edgy, im deeply thankful for your work Mr. aronofsky. im definetly gonna make a dope track about you! god Bless you.
The premise of Darren's book sounds very similar to the episode in Powerpuff Girls where chalk drawings come to life.
It’s not a comeback. He’s been working consistently the whole time
No idea he was from Brooklyn! BK ALL DAY!
I think he's best known for "Black Swan" than for "The Mother" which was a bit of a bomb.
Brendon. Fraser was Soo good looking ...he was a WOW !!!
He still is
I really thought that was Steve Jobs in the thumbnail for a second
Go Brendan Go!
His last name is Fraser not Frazier.
Am I the only one who thinks Darren looks like Steve Jobs? Just sayin lol
he’s turned into Steve Jobs. I didn’t recognize him at first
I laughed when she said his movie made her uncomfortable. Lol you know who you're talking to? I saw Requiem at 14; one of the most powerful and disturbing movies every. Brilliant but not something conducive to a rewatch. I've seen most of his films since. The Fountain should have gotten more acclaim because he moved in positive direction (trying to make something more Zen because his other work is so heavy emotionally). Black Swan is his masterpiece imo. So far he's been a master of conveying horror. I do think he could lean into that more. Would love to see more thriller from him but within the context of drama. He and the British director Steve McQueen might work well together. McQueen is so good with character, story, and nuance. Aronofsky is brilliant at understanding feel and pushing emotional buttons. If I ran a studio I'd commission both with the challenge of 'one upping' the movie Se7en. Maybe we haven't seen his best yet. Directors like Hitchcock didn't make their best til years in. I'll have to check out the new one.
Crazy that this is the guy that went to a stranger's high school reunion in his place. You guys know the one on Vice. Heh
He looks exactly like Christian Bale.
If you read this i hope you are having a wonderful weekend 💙
Damn, that play version looked corny af.
it's not very good tbh.
“First” 🤓
He is a truly sick man. Have you guys seen Requiem for a Dream? Something is truly wrong with him. Brendan is cool though 😎
instead of pretense shock and awe - all he has to do is tell a story - he cant do it
are you slow?
