Requiem of a dream

At the beginning of the movie it thought he was threatening he’s mom. I later found out he needed money for drugs so he was selling her television for the money. She would not give her own son money for drugs but she would buy the television back after he had just sold it.

After I learned he and his friends were trying to make it big in drug marketing, I thought they would never make it. It is hard to be in the distribution of drugs and not get caught or killed. Despite what I thought they stated to make plenty of money and were saving their money to buy better and better drugs. With the better drugs they could sell for more money and make a bigger profit to save more. When this all started to happen what I thought all changed. I thought they actually could make it big, get rich, and possibly get out.  At one time they had more money than they knew what to do with. They met with a guy that would finally help them get big, and everything was looking good. With a huge shock to me the guy was killed.

After the guy was killed drugs became harder and harder to find. With drugs harder to find they were paying more money for a lesser quality of drug. At this point things were starting to take a turn for the worst. I was still thinking they had a chance to make it, with such a high demand for drugs someone had to supply them soon.  Well I was wrong, drugs were getting so hard to find and they could hardly get any. There stash of money had run dry.

With no money and no drugs they began to get dope sick. Now my outlook had changed, I was thinking they were going to all die from the lack of drugs. Not only this, but Harrys mother was getting sick from the pills she was taking. To try and get more drugs Harry had his friend went California to get more drugs. On the way Harry’s friend saw they Harry had a really bad infection form a needle, so he took him to a hospital. Because it was drug related he and Harry went to jail. Harry did receive medical treatment but lost is arm do to the infection.

Everyone lived but not without a price they had to pay. Harry lost his arm and went to jail, and his friend went to jail. His girlfriend was alone selling her body for drugs, and his mother was in rehab from the pills she was prescribed by a doctor. At the beginning of the movie I would have never thought that they would have returned to a worse state then they started at the beginning of the movie.
