Default Requiem for a dream animated gif

Help me out please OOTiots [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I used to have a Requiem for a Dream animated gif (with the whole injection, blood rushing, pupil dilation broohaha) but I accidentally deleted it. Google just turned up a bunch of dead links when I looked for it. Anybody have it, or know where I might get it? Thank you!

I refuse to help you since pupils should contract, not dilate, and that shows a big difference between Darren Aronofsky and Hubert Selby Jr.

Maybe because Selby actually shot the [censored] while Aronofsky was in film school.

I realize that was your point, but I don't think its fair to bust on an otherwise excellent film due to a minor detail which was changed for dramatic effect. Unless you believe that a film about junkies can only be made by somebody who has used heroin. And in that case, I'd point to Trainspotting and this as counterpoints.

I love the movie. I love Aronofsky's work. I think fetishizing heroin use is stupid, not the point of the film, and especially ironic when the selected image is erroneous. Simmer down.

People are also under anesthetic when undergoing ECT, but that wouldn't have been quite so dramatic.

Oh, and refrigerators don't talk. Stupid Aronofsky.
