I saw Requiem For A Dream for the first and only time in the fall of 2003. It was the lowest point of my life so far (for reasons which shall remain untold) and watching Requiem For A Dream at that point was not a good idea.
As a result, hearing Clint Mansell's score gave me an uncomfortable feeling in the pit of my stomach for the following seven years. Thank you, Pavlov.
It's only in the last few months I've been able to distance myself from that part of my life and appreciate the soundtrack for the meisterwerk it truly is.
