CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Sara Goldfarb (Ellen Burstyn) talks about fitting in the red dress and what it means to her.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
Based on the novel by Hubert Selby Jr., this gritty drama concerns four people trapped by their addictions. Harry (Jared Leto), and his best friend Tyrone (Marlon Wayans) are impoverished heroin addicts living in Coney Island, NY, while Harry's girlfriend Marion (Jennifer Connelly) is a fellow addict trying to distance herself from her wealthy father. Harry dreams of scoring a pound of smack, from which he could make enough money to open a clothing boutique with Marion, but so far he and his friends can barely scrape by supporting their own habits. Meanwhile, Harry's mother Sara (Ellen Burstyn), who spends her days watching television, is told she has the opportunity to appear on her favorite game show; wanting to lose enough weight to fit into her favorite red dress, she visits a sleazy doctor who gives her a prescription for amphetamines. Soon Sara has a drug habit of her own that is spiraling out of control. Requiem for a Dream was directed by Darren Aronofsky, who also co-wrote the screenplay with Selby; it was Aronofsky's second feature, following his acclaimed independent film Pi.

![The Best Acting of All Time - Compilation Part IV [HD]](/img/n.gif)
Ellen Burstyn is a stupendous actress, and she was robbed of the Academy Award for her work here. She created Sara Goldfarb as the saddest, most tragic, and yet most relatable character in the film.
YES! YES! YES!
What about Tyrone? He never forgot about his friends and family.
@@ChristianFrates1997 I know it's late, but I think the director mentioned about how Tyrone was the only person with a chance of redemption as those positive memories about his friends and family would motivate him through the hard times at prison.
Sara is us! The red dress a nagging yearning to go back. To happier times.
Ellen not getting Academy was one of the biggest robberies
The fact that she lost the oscar to Julia Roberts is one of the greatest travesties in the history of awards.
I totally agree X X
Actually Julia Roberts won for playing a thief.
Julia Roberts is overrated
Ugh she lost to her?
Wow I cannot BELIEVE she lost this. This is one the realest acting that you forget your watching a movie why it was so touching
"[My friends] don't need me." And yet in the ending scene, her friends sob and hug each other after seeing her at the hospital.
Yeo. It's an endlessly devastating twist.
Right that’s such a good scene
The delusion, depression, and psychosis from the addiction. Only the pills, only.
They don't need her tho, and she never even needed to be needed, she just wanted love
@@TheEtherny Drugs destroyed her son and his love for her, and they ultimately destroyed her too.
I especially find this dialogue heartbreaking when thinking about the scene at the end when her friends visit her in the hospital. Seeing how much her downfall affected them, you can tell she mattered to them more than she thought.
Agreed. Never thought of it that way. Never thought of her mentioning of her friends in this scene, and how it compares to how they feel, seeing her in the mental hospital. Thanks for sharing that comment. Now I know another lesson from this movie.
Great analysis. This movie is so important. It showed us the power of cinema. Ellen Burstyn should have an Oscar for this film.
... and yet, they didn't hug Sarah. They consoled themselves, but not her.
@@juliawarhol7842 we don’t really know what happened during their visit. All we saw is them looking at her and then consoling each other some time later. I’d like to think that they tried to speak with her the way they used to before realizing that the person they loved was gone.
Sarah's lines in this scene sum up my fear of leaving my mom all alone when I move out, even to another country.
Yeah me too
Me too. Still the reason I’ve not left my hometown. I cant leave her
I resonate a lot with Sarah’s character. I can’t watch this movie because I always start sobbing. When my father wad taken to the hospital for medical reasons and I was at work (I work a rotational job where I’m away for months at a time) my mother was alone for months and dramatically declined cognitively. I was unable to afford home care and they wouldn’t forum her. Now, diagnosed with dementia, she’s a hyper-medicated zombie that can barely speak. She’s in a home now. Whenever she recognizes me I can’t help but to start crying.
Take it from someone on the other side looking back, spend all the time you can with your parents. Show them that you love them. When they’re gone, there’s no getting them back.
That’s why I couldn’t leave.
Wishing you the best man from Chicago. - David
the way she said I'm old is very heartbreaking
Kind of like she's howling at it, she doesn't want it, but it has taken her just the same.
Ellen herself said that when she said that line, she was telling them to herself. She, the human being, was also suffering like Sara, the charecter.
Oh damn, that's so heartbreaking
0:12 "I'm somebody now, Harry. Everybody likes me. Soon, millions of people will see me and they'll all like me" - Aronofsky was way ahead of the times there, considering the ADDICTION to validation by way of social media just around the corner a few years down the line.
Brilliant point! And we can thank the use of Mobile devices in our pockets at all times for the rest of our lives... There are so many ways of getting the validation that you truly desire besides whoring yourself on social media these days, but unfortunately that's the most convenient way of going about it. What's going to happen when you lose your followers or the platform you use disappears??? End of the world?
This comment was from 3-4 years ago, what do you think about the landscape now @Adrian101882
Lol no, by 2000 this had already been topical for a while. Ever heard of Andy Warhol? 15 minutes of fame?
we've just witnessed an acting masterclass...controlled, effective,emotive, and detailed
Absolutely brilliant acting. When she says "I _like_ the way I feel" you can see it written on her face in the moment that she doesn't really believe it and she has to keep nodding and reassuring herself. Then she thinks about an object, the red dress, and it makes her smile and distracts her from those unhappy feelings just a bit longer. I was sobbing into the pouring rain when I left the theatre watching this.
Exactly! Incredible incredible incredible acting
You can literally see the pain & suffering behind that Smile. Such a brilliant, brilliant acting ..
Also in the eyes, she quickly looks away from Harry like she was ashamed.
Another take is that she actually DID like the way she felt, if only for a short while. She had more energy and more enjoyment in her day to day life, doing mundane tasks. It was a distraction. But the effects of the drugs crept up on her. I think the message is that just like her son, Marion, and Tyrone, she was also escaping negative feelings of loneliness with the drugs she was given, even if that wasn’t her intention in the beginning.
I admit, without shame, that this was the first movie scene to ever make me cry.
Phenomenal acting from Ellen Burstyn. That fact that she didn't get a award is one of the biggest jokes in movie award history.
Chicago, Boston, Florida, Kansas City, Las Vegas, Independent Spirit, Phoenix, Satellite, Stockholm, Vancouver -- Burstyn won all these Best Actress awards. It really is stupid how the Oscars are looked at as the pinnacle of acting, when in reality it's just a political dog and pony show. Roberts was playing the game with Hollywood while Burstyn was out finding a challenging role and acting her butt off...and at her age? She was 67 at the time Requiem was filmed. You could tell the role consumed her very deeply.
I agree!!!
I just can't believe they gave the Oscar to Julia Roberts that year, just goes to show the Academy Awards are bullshit. This quality of acting is so extraordinary, it's beyond Meryl Streep (yes, I said it). One of the most heart wrenching performances ever.
It's just a film award get over it. I wanted her to win to but you don't see me complaining.
+Harry Banova Go to Hell.
Sami Brady It's just an award ge tover it.
Andervan I don't know shit about Meryl Streep what is her best performance
Meryl Streep is shit.
I cried when I watched this, me and my mother had a conversation similar to this before she died from a medication overdose.
I am deeply sorry for your loss. May your mother rest peacefully. 🙏💙.
@SgtBaker16 stfu. Loset
I am so sorry for your loss. Sending you love.
I hope you’re doing well
Oh my
This really is sad. Even through her addiction and hallucinations she still does love Harry very much and you start to realize that fitting in the red dress for the show is so important because it takes her back to a better time when Harry graduated high school and her husband was still alive and it was just a really happy day for her and she feels wearing that dress on tv and telling everyone about her husband and son will help her relive the moment and start a new chapter. And Harry, despite being an addict himself, shows genuine concern and love for his mother and, in an ironic cycle, disapproves of her drug use. In a way he’s talking to himself since he still doesn’t fully know the danger he’s in
Beautiful response my friend! The last part is absolutely spot on. When she asks him "How come ya know so Much, huh? How come you know more about medicine than a doctor?" Harry responds with a short pause as he looks down, "Believe me Ma, I know!" He knows because he's looking at himself through his mother! If it was anyone else he probably wouldn't haven given a care in the world, but this is his Mother.
EDIT: That ironic cycle is just built into the insanity of Addiction. It's worse when 1 out of the 2 people in a relationship want to get clean, or are even clean at that moment, while their partner is still using and won't stop. How do you tell your partner to stop when everything you say sounds hypocritical to the other?
I'll Say this to the end of Time... Cancer and Addiction are two sides of the same coin. They both kill you slowly or extremely quickly and generally affect the entire family. However, in my opinion, Cancer tends to bring family/friends around the affected together while Addiction tears those same ties apart!
Her performance STILL all these years later stays with me. Unbelievably brilliant.
“Why should I even make the bed or do the dishes? I do them” that one hurt
How the HELL she didn't win the Oscar for this scene alone is beyond me!!! She even got the cinematographer crying during this take!!!
because of Julia Roberts and her Hollywood appeal when she was an okay actress but nothing on Ellen's caliber.
I love how this serves as an allegory for the entire philosophy of the film; that the drugs and the false hope they inspire so temporarily is the only thing these people have to numb themselves from the reality of their situation. Tragic, yet Beautiful
Ellen Burstyn was robbed of the Oscar for this performance.
This is why it is never healthy to build your life completely around other people. It is good to care for and help others, but the truth of life is that in the end it is only your own well being that is most important. You have to love yourself at least as much as you love others.
+TheBookWorm1718 Not all people want to feel sorry for themselves. It's just that some can't. Take depression. You simply can't do anything with your life because you're so low everyday that life turns into a meaningless burden you have to carry. They wan't, but can't/
+TheBookWorm1718 People have depression, and you don't know how others feel during these times.
good words, even if mildly unsympathetic, people need to learn to be able to cope being alone, and to find interest in things that dont revolve around others
Even if you do want to care for others I would say you can do that A LOT more effectively if you care for yourself first.
I heard it described in another film, "You gotta accept the fact that people have to take care of themselves, and that includes you."
this was done in ONE TAKE! gives me the chills. been sober for 8 years and this movie is a must watch for me once a year ... to remind me not to take it for granted. never.
*stay safe guys!!😷*
First time I saw this scene, can't hold my tears when she said, "I'm ooold.." 😭😭 what a marvelous acting
1:34 The sorrowful tone in which she says “I’M OOOOLD”…
🥺🥺🥺
When she says everytime "television" i can always feel the line that divides illusion and sadness.
02:01 "Now and i get the sun, i SMILE"... Oh god, this is the best performance of all time, no doubt about it and Ellen Burstyn was one of the best actress of all time.
Being raised by a amazingly compassionate and caring single mother for almost my entire childhood and even until now (im 22), and whom hasnt re-married (or even went on a date for years on end for that matter)yet, this scene was by far the most painful and heartbreaking one in the whole movie. ive always and still worry about a similar situation slowly coming to fruition as I got older, and then unexpectedly seeing it in this movie was devastating to me. It still brings a tear to my eye.
Breathtaking acting, one of the greatest performances I have ever seen
This acting is absolutely unreal. The way she's fighting through her misery and realizations of her loneliness and abandonment with fantasies about the red dress are tragic and captured in such heartbreaking detail by Ellen Burstyn. It was way ahead of it's time. We'd see that manic fluctuation between vulnerable mental states awarded the Oscar with films like Joker (2019). But Ellen was the OG, cementing out a textbook path for how to capture a tragic character struggling with mental illness and existential crises.
She didn't lose to Julia Roberts. She just didn't get a shitty trophy. We (and Julia Roberts, and everybody else) know who really won.
She DID, however, get dozens of others. Stupid politics!
This scene hits me hard. My mother went through a breakdown of severe depression and anxiety a couple years ago, and it got to the point where I was worried she would become addicted to the pills she was prescribed to treat the anxiety. Happily, she has largely recovered, but it makes me sad to think what might have happened without her family helping her. I just want to give Sara Goldfarb a hug even though she’s fictional.
fictious characters are based off reality
Yes, Jared Leto should've won an Oscar for holding back a tremendous amount of teardrops.
Can we give Jared Leto some credit for his amazing acting? He played this scene so perfectly. He wants her to stop but deep down he’s empathetic to what she’s saying and you can see the guilt pass his face. The two had amazing chemistry.
Man I hated that guy on tv that was laughing at her and all those people who were laughing too. That was hard too take. Man I feel so bad for her.
+Steven Morris It was a hallucination though. But sad.
Ya even though it was a hallucination, that scene was both scary, and sad.
It was that effect of those drugs that evil doctor prescribed to her
@@jaystevenson7232 so really we should be hating on the doctor
For me it was her "dream-self", "the goal" -self laughing at her. Her fantasy and favorite TV show that gave her a little comfort from reality turned on her.
I love how there is no music or special effects this is exactly the longest dialogue scene in whole movie it's just two great actors showing the best of what they do
This scene was made me cry. One of the best acting performances ever witnessed in history of cinema. Ellen Burstyn acting in this move will always be remembered for the ages to come.
That "I'm old" just breaks me
Fucking best acting ever!!!!! Holy fuck!!!!!!!
One of the truly magical acting moments caught forever.
Saddest scene in the movie.
Best acting in a scene EVER.
This is my personal opinion ofcourse, but I think this is the single greatest performance in the history of cinema
Sikke Van Der Veer I agree. I have seen many movies (as we all have) and this scene is really the best for me too. I usually cite The Hours as my favorite movie because of Julianne Moore and Meryl Streep’s performances (didn’t really care for Kidman in that one although she’s great). But Burstyn’s performance here is even better than theirs. It hit me to my core.
I just want to give her a hug and tell her that she IS a somebody. She's a somebody to so many people. The same people who don't want to see her mental and state degrade. The same people she showed love to. I just want to tell that the simple fact you raised a child and had such a positive impact on everyone should be the reason you wake up with a smile. Truly tragic.
Heartbreaking in its honest display about her sense of loneliness and uselessness, and also about how clearly her addiction is already robbing her.
Also hard to see how the Son is sitting at the table, that we & she knows that he's using Heroin, seeing his mother falling also into an addiction (ampethamines) & not wanting that she goes trough the same hell as he does.
That ”I'm old”. Goddamn. You can't convince me that was all acting. At least some part of that delivery was genuine sadness.
I would have recommended for her to take care of a foster child. She's the type of person where when she has nothing to do, she goes crazy.
I always thought a dog may have prevented this
Or maybe get a part-time job (if she was physically up for it), like at a library where she can interact with others
My grandmother is the same. Part of the reason why she's still working.
@@stefanysavoie411 Getting a dog has fixed my 88 year old mom. I love him too & will gladly care for him when… it becomes necessary
Gotta stop watching youtube videos while im cutting onions.
She definitively got robbed of that Oscar. Can't believe they gave it to Julia Roberts, it just makes NO sense. Julia is a great actress, no doubt about it, but Ellen was just OUT OF THIS WORLD in that movie. One of the best female performance i've ever seen.
still makes me cry every damn time.
This scene is so dark and real.
This scene is just straight out sad. Her performance in this scene, and the entire movie, was an outstandingly amazing performance, and one of the most heart-wrenching performances I have ever seen in a movie. This makes me want to show even more compassion, and love I have for my mother.
Her acting in this scene and movie in general is wildly amazing . It doesn’t get talked about enough.
This breaks my heart 😢
Mine too. 😢😭.
One of the greatest cinematic moments I've seen in my life. The way it starts as a simple conversation and it just slowly turns into something that knocks you off your feet…
The acting here is off the charts. She was wrong about her friends. They really did love and care for her. You see that at the end when they are balling their eyes out after seeing the state she was in.
"I've got no one to care for" yes you do. Yourself. Ask yourself this. If you were living with someone else who is in your position, would you just let them suffer or wallow in their own pity, sadness, loneliness, depravity and depression? No, you wouldn't.
If you know you know someone like that is right there with you and you don't act to help them, you feel miserable not just for them but about yourself for not having helped them. Even if you're with them for just 5 minutes to care for them, perhaps especially then because those 5 minutes are fleeting and precious, you'll feel that.
Now imagine spending an hour with them. Every month. Maybe once a week even. You build a friendship. You need to be patient. Practice patience. They won't get it right in a month or so but eventually, in like half a year there'll be real progress. You grow more intimate maybe, or perhaps they've opened themselves up to working on their problems with you more often so you go twice a week. Every other day. Maybe just say hi to them every day if you're in the vicinity.
And you do know such a person. And perhaps, there is a little bit of that person in all of us. Or a lot. Maybe you are that person. Maybe. Maybe you can be strong enough, and caring enough, to tend to yourself as though you were as sad or lonely as Sara Goldfarb. If you can help her, and you want to help her, what would you do for her? Won't you do that for yourself, just once, as though you were her? And reward yourself for it. Be proud you took that small step, just to try it. See if something gets better. Practice patience. You won't get it right in one try, one day, one week. Be patient with yourself. Grow, and become someone new.
A letter to myself, and to those it speaks to.
I love this comment.
This was one of the saddest scenes I've ever watched in a film
That's depression in nutshell. I felt just like her and everytime I see this scene I can't help but cry.
I re-watched this scene dozens of time and it gives me goosebumps every single time........ Shoot her acting was so genuine .. it didn't felt like an act
I call my mom and tell her I love her every night after seeing this.
God bless you.
God bless your soul💕
Same
To be able to express so much emotion in close-up is real acting work.
I just want to go there and comfort her ;(
You and me both
I know if she had a daughter I kinda think it might have ended up better for her. She did so good in this part that I had to stop mid into just this UA-cam clip and take a Xanax because she was making my skin pulse.
@@kkandsims4612 exactly, that's why I feel so bad for those who are lonely and have sons only, if she had a daughter I think would have felt less lonelier. I felt so bad and I think harry realizes how lonely and depressed his mom when he burst into tears in the car.
Best monologue ever.
Acting is so good here wow!
this scene breaks my heart
This is soul-crushing. I first watched RFAD as a young adult and this monologue went completely over my head. Now as a childless middle-age woman, this monologue hit me like a ton of bricks. “It a reason to get up in the morning” 😭😭😭
i'd probably be willing to give you a child, get at me :d
This scene and the build-up really hit me hard the first time I saw it - it opened my eyes to a life situation I hadn't considered, and Ellen Burstyn showed such a range of powerful emotion in such a compressed time frame I, (like many others I suspect), instantly Googled her to find out what else she had done and why I was not familiar with her work.
They say a great actor is never greater than the part they play - and I couldn't suggest an actor who fits this expression better than Ellen.
I know so many old people who are like this - they crave for attention just to feel valued because everyone they knew has grown up, grown away or died.
Phenomenal acting definitely deserved the award for her role in this film- heartbreaking too
She scared me...that is powerful
her acting!!!
😢❤.
"Now when i get the sun, i SMILE."
This is why it's important to make friends and have hobbies outside of caring for your family. Start now while you're young kids.
“I’ll tell them about you...” breaks my heart 😭 that and “it’s a reason to get up in the morning”
This is the best performance ever in the history of cinema. I am still shocked that this brilliant actress did not receive the academy award. This scene is truly powerful! Thank you Ellen Burstyn for such a realistic depiction of a lonely person. Love this film so much!!!
Rips my heart into a million pieces. Every single time.
WHAT A ACTOR.... WHAT A ACTOR.... WOW... SHE IS A BOSS
Made the movie for me. Great acting scene.
Ellen Burstyn was robbed. She was simply outstanding
She just wanted to be noticed and happy again. Her life was so empty and lonely she thought being on the show would change everything. She's completely innocent to what those pills were doing to her. She gave her full trust to her "doctor". When your drug addict son is telling you a certain type of pill is bad, it's probably a good idea to listen.
Jeremy Jahns said it best in his latest review of this movie. You can usually pick out the scene that the Academy will use as a preview, and the scene that epitomizes their performance as Oscar Worthy. In this movie, many people say this scene was that scene for Ellen Burstyn. When in reality, as Jeremy said, you can’t really pick out the particular scene for Ellen; because they’re all fantastic. Also if there is more past proof that the Oscars mean nothing, it’s the fact that Ellen lost to Julia Roberts. One of the biggest cases of robbery I’ve ever seen.
I cried so hard after this scene, and again when Harry went into the cab and cried too. Best scene in the whole movie.
This is the saddest part of this whole sad movie for me
every sentence in this is golden.
Ellen burstyn is absolutely sylvia goldfarb! Amazing. Should have won oscar..
"Now when I look at the sun, I smile!" One of the most positive and wonderful lines, and it breaks my heart. Every. Single. Time.
Frickin masterclass in film acting in two minutes and 40 seconds
She deserves the Oscar only for this scene. Really broke my heart...
amazing acting
The biggest robbery at the Oscars!
How this role didn't get her the Oscar I'll never understand. Truly unforgettable performance.
Yep.... time to give my mum a call
There’s so much truth in this it’s painful to watch.
This movie as unnerving their actions are, the acting is still relevant and applauded today. What an all star cast.
this scene spoke to my soul. its so realistic in portraying old age, loneliness and addiction. All problems we face on a daily basis
Just watched this movie today, and cried like a baby at this scene. Wouldn’t want any parent to ever feel this way.
Such a well acted scene this, you can't even tell its acting
Gosh if that was my mother I would never leave her. Poor woman just admitted how lonely she was and you leave? I'd move back in and spend my days keeping my mom happy 😥
My Mom's alone now after my stepdad passed, and she doesn't have the same vitality she once had, but I'm always thankful she's completely lucid and grounded. I couldn't take one of my parents whizzing off into some pill popping delirium talking about some fantasy that will never happen. I think Burstyn's character is the most tragic in this film, and by far, she gives the best performance. You just ache for her longing to be somebody, to do something with her life again...she just can't take it being who she is, at her age, alone and passionless.
Does anybody else see the resemblance between jared leto and jennifer connely?
I noticed that they both look extremely similar.
There's always weird casting choices like that. Like Nicholaus Cage and Tea Leone.
How dare the Oscar to give the Oscar other than Ellen?
This scene is so good. I read that the cinematographer started tearing up when recording this.
A few years ago I thought this was novelty movie with cheap shock. Now I'm feeling old every day and scenes like this hit way too close to home
