Directed by Darren Aronofsky in 2000 and framed at 1.85:1, the drama palette shows up as bands of colour you can read at a glance.

About this filmv

Four people in Brooklyn face a dark spiral as their drug habits ruin their lives and dreams. The film uses fast editing and close-up shots to show how they lose touch with the real world. Cold blues and sickly greens create a harsh look that feels like a bad nightmare.
