Films About Addiction

I shared my story on Facebook - "11 Films About Addiction to Watch This Oscar Season" - linked to in the comments.

A friend, whose opinion I respect a LOT; we're often on the same page music-wise for example... he denounced "Requiem For A Dream" starring Jared Leto, Jennifer Connelly and Ellen Burstyn. He called it out, dismissing it as "tragedy porn."

Indeed it is probably one of the most depressing films you could possibly watch. But I think it is a genuine piece of art. It's so incredibly good. The acting, the cinematography, the editing, the original story. Have you seen Requiem for A Dream and what are your thoughts? #RequiemForADream #Film #Oscars
