Darren Aronofsky
Darren Aronofsky style is bold and uncompromising.
His feature debut was a low-budget indie, the monochrome nightmare called Pi.
His follow-up, Requiem for a Dream, a bleak anti-drug drama, anchored by superlative ensemble, headed by Ellen Burstyn.
Aronofsky’s moves are anchored by tragic anti-heroes, driven to self-destruction by their obsessions.
Stylistically diverse, he is able to oscillate between lo-fi 16mm (Black Swan, The Wrestler) and the lush and beautiful (The Fountain, Noah).
