Death is the Road to Awe....

[natedredd10 10]

I somewhat got interested in trading when the movie PI came out and I had got my first office job at a money management firm when i was 21 during the dotcom bubble.

I watched Requiem For a Dream when it came out and thought it was the most intense and brutal movie I ever seen...

I have no idea why it took me 4 years to see The Fountain until last night. I can't stop thinking about it..Darren Aronofsky is god.

Its a tough movie but not in the way a david lynch movie is tough with no real story being told and just abstract for abstract sake...

Its non linear and i knew going in it was 3 connected stories taking place in 1500, the present and 2500...That totally helped, without that it would have seemed like complete nonsense.

This will detract from the second viewing but I envy anyone now who gets to watch this for the first time....

3 interconnected story lines.

People don't accept death and want to live forever...

Death is the road to awe....

 

Just go get it if you like movies that are a bit weird...its so beautifull.

I'm trying to build a home theater, first film for sure on there is going to be The Wrestler that I'm so pissed now I didn't see at the theaters but glad I haven't seen it yet...

 

For traders...his next film is called "The Black Swan"...

Im going to order The Fountain right now - Ive been stuck for films to watch recently.

 

Requiem For a Dream sure is brutal. If you like that movie, you may also like Candy starring that dead bloke who played The Joker in Batman with Christian Bale (that live bloke).

 

Also, Fractured with Anthony Hopkins is a real good movie too.

 

The Wrestler is good, but a bit morbid IMO (not as morbid as RFaD obviously...) I liked the ending where......
