The Lone Acting Nominees

Episode 5 - Requiem for a Dream (with Zac Jumper)

Episode Summary

In this episode, I'm joined by Zac Jumper to discuss Ellen Burstyn's magnificently devastating performance as a lonely widow that gets hooked on diet pills in anticipation of a TV appearance in Darren Aronofsky's sophomore feature Requiem for a Dream (2000). Other topics include Clint Mansell's iconic score, the bizarreness of the movies that beat it at the 2000 Saturn Awards, and "ass to ass!"
