R e q u i e m for a DREAM

Cult movie. Brilliant music. Let me tell you who all have poached music from this film - Joan of Arc - The Messenger, 1 Hour Photos and even Lord of the Rings (they copied the music in a trailer). I have heard this in an album, the song being called - Zoo York. I have always liked this particular song.. I saw the trailer of Joan of Arc a number of times just to listen to the music over and over again.

Think about the title of the movie. Look up what "requiem" means. I am sold on the title itself. Something similar to Trainspotting - another cult movie...

Watch them both.....(this blog was posted when i was watching the movie...)

Now that i have finished watching it..

1. My facts were all wrong - this was released in 2000...that means this does not have an original score.
Second - Do not watch this movie...Too depressing..(end of blog)

what drew me towards requiem for a dream was its strong message. It wasnt preachy but it was so well told.good music. Incidentally, i have its OST...

one thing though, the music that you mentioned, in the joan of arc trailer, it is not zoo york by oakenfold. it was agnus dei-samuel barber.

then it would mean the original composition is by Samuel barber? by the way thanks to you i have now downloaded the OST of the movie! pretty decent...
