I finally convinced my parents to watch Requiem for a Dream. After about 20 minutes they were wandering around the house not paying attention and saying "I don't get it". So fucking lame. |
||||||||

|
why did you even try to convince your parents about seeing that film? i think ur the one that is lame. |

jennifer connelly is co-starring in it...that should make it watchable |
||||||||

nacmat: yes, definately see it. BUT it was the most depressing movie i have ever seen (depressing, not sad), so be prepared. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
sorry. it was depressing AND sad. dancer in the dark was sad. |
||||||||

i didn't sit down and think "man my parents need to see this, and they better like it" They came in my room and asked to watch one of my DVDs so I recommended Requiem. |

haha, my parents watched that movie w/ me... and said that the main character reminded them of my friend steve, who by coincidence used to be a heroin addict, which i told them next time he stopped by my mom initiated the dumbest drugs conversation i've ever heard her have (and she put me in rehab twice) it was definately a very revealing experience, now i just watch stuff like harry potter and lord of the rings with them, easier to talk about afterwards but i will say at least they sat through it and 'got it' |

i doubt my parents would "get it"... my dad might, he can be pretty open minded, but would most likely fall asleep 20 mins into it. my mom probably wouldn't enjoy, she's kinda squeamish. |

kill your parents. |

i suppose i understand... my parents were like that when i was younger, i found out recently a lot of times it wasn't 'cause they weren't 'hip' to the scene, but more along the lines that they were flabergasted that i was maybe it's a similar situation with you? i'm unsure how i'd react watching a movie about heroin addiction w/ my kids and realizing they already thought they knew all there was to know about said dangerous substances |

I like Bjork and all but Dancer in the Dark was horrible... Put the camera on ME!!! No no... ME ME ME ME! Probably the director's fault... but whatever. Pi was fabulous. Requiem I didn't think was as good as Pi, but it was still very very good. Some great camera work there, some of the best "shock value" shots I've seen in a long time. Any film that FORCES you to think about things the way that one does has two thumbs up in my book. Tell your parents that you'll start shooting heroin unless they watch the movie start to finish and can take a quiz on it afterwards. |

excellent, but wouldn't it be more intelligent to threaten with mdma? that's all the rage nowadays, with the glowsticks and the raves and the orange monkeys, pink cadillacs, and other stupid pill names that sound like 80's band names |

requiem for a dream is not a family flick but yeah, everyone should see it it's very good and very stark and teaches a lesson a lot of movies are scared of addressing... plus, jennifer connelly is a total fox so, naturally, is her boyfriend |

requiem for a dream is not a family flick that's putting it lightly. what the fuck was he thinking? seems like teenage angst to me, having his parents watch that film. |
||||||||
|

|
|
i think if my mom wanted to see a movie that i liked, i would probably recommend something more along the lines of the usual suspects, or maybe american beauty. probably not something that involved ass fucking. |

hee hee hee well here's something: I watched it with my 'rents. they're lovely, brilliant people. we talked about what it meant. my dad hated it, but he just hates sadness. but most parents.. stick with your basic "cider house rules" hollywood style tone-downage. yes? |
