The films that Darren Aronofsky makes occupy an interesting space. They straddle the line between experimental and realist, between mainstream and independent, between classical biblical allegories and contemporary tales.
As I do in this series of videos, I’ll take a look at 3 different films made by Darren Aronofsky at 3 increasing budget levels: the low budget Pi, the medium budget The Wrestler, and the high budget Noah.

You should do Paul Thomas Anderson with licorice pizza coming out.
Licorice Pizza was marginal. I liked it, but far from his best work.
I really enjoyed The Fountain from his Filmography, it was very unique and quite surreal and visually impressive and the story just pulled you in with top notch performances by Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz as well as the rest of the cast.
That is one of the most visually stunning movies I've ever seen.
@@RSpracticalshooting Yes definitely, not just the visual effects but the way it was shot, the in cinematography was top notch on The Fountain.
Exactly. Everything he does is pretty groundbreakingly unreal. Mother was surreal as well.
@@yargnad Yes definitely, A true visionary filmmaker.
You also could do videos examining long-term director/cinematographer collaborations.
Steven Spielberg and Janusz Kaminski
Luc Besson and Thierry Arbogast
Mike Leigh and Dick Pope
The Coen brothers and Roger Deakins, or Sam Mendes and Deakins(then again, you already did a video on Deakins)
Stanley Kubrick and John Alcott
Great analysis. Aronofsky's filmography deserves to be seen
loving these videos, your work is great man
Correction at 14:54 --- the flood battle scene was meant to be understood as happening during the day, which is why they had that huge, expensive rigging. Libatique called it "Night for day" because they shot at night and the lighting could be controlled in a consistent fashion to depict a daytime setting in the rain.
I love that you’re doing this series because it inspires aspiring filmmakers and shows them that you can do a lot of cool and interesting things without a huge budget.
im so happy u did this one
Aronofsky is a genius
Absolutely. You’ve got to have substantial intellect to outshine everyone at Harvard & AFI, but the films he’d go on to make with Requiem, Black Swan, & Mother! completely subvert everything thought possible with the medium. He invented a new texture of storytelling that taps into the very real horror of human psyche through expressionism. There’s no one like him in the art form.
@@Evanderj exactly!!!
Great video
I can't think of another film in which I enjoyed the cinematography as much as The Wrestler, the shots are truly sublime.
same...i took the chance to watch it because of aronofsky and roorke , and was pleasantly surprised!!!great shots as you've said!!!
Awesome!
Please cover David Lynch some time.
Every one of your videos is amazing content! Thank you! =)
You should do a Hitchcock one or Coppola! Can be really interesting
Thank you
Why did you put "The Wrestler" instead of "Requiem for a Dream"?
Probably because Requiem was literally Aronofsky's second movie after Pi.
Next pls do Gaspar Noe budget levels.
I remember watching Pi for some random reason. It was an experience but the only thing I can really remember was the ending when the protagonist drilled that smart bump out of his head.
back then (i was much younger), i was fascinated by the film...the end scene is trully remarkable!!!
Beautiful.
Pi has an amazing techno body horror vibe to it
Dude I love your channel. You seriously make super solid content with good advice. I make similar stuff on my channel. I compete in film festivals and I’m even working on a feature film
Do Richard Linklater next
3:54 rings a bell?
How about Sydney Lumet? Primarily for his work in Directing Actors, for which I feel he is highly underrated. And he is too often left out of the Greatest Director discussions. Have you done Orson yet? Great work by the way!!
All those underrated working directors from the 60's-80's would be great. Alan Pakula would be a good one too and his films with Gordon Willis.
Hello, I like this channel "In Depth Cine" . There are many video talking the style of cinema, know now i´m wanther my obout your style on cinematographi!!! I só Relics, i liked, it is great showing this film on youtube, and for firts film was great image
Phedon Papamichael is another DP I'd like to see you do a video on.
I just had a look at his filmography and was surprised at how many of his movies I had seen and not known they were done by him.
He is another fabulous cinematographer, and seems very chameleonic, not having a distinctive style that I can discern.
But maybe someone like yourself can?
Watching this now.. I’m thinking about all the ways I could’ve made Noah.. for half the budget
It’s just so crazy how everyone with an iPhone 14 4k smartphone camera doesn’t even realize how much easier their journey to ultra HD storytelling actually is.. than theirs 😂
Can you do this but for Robert Rodriguez?
(would be great!!!)
I want a Rodriguez video here for sure. But I'm not sure if I want it to be a budget levels one. What are some candidates? El Mariachi, Desperado, Sin City?
@@DavidBerglund Good picks
Would you ever do a video like this on Denis Villneuve?
The Wrestler and Black Swan are masterpieces. I'll watch them again and again and again...
Pi and RFAD will always be on my top 10 list.
Do directors or film makers, ever go back to doing low budget movies again, like they did in the beginning of their careers? or do they prefer to invest in big budgets?
Kubrick famously did. After making 2001 which was very over budget he did Clockwork Orange on a small budget. CO is a brilliant example of how good pre-production can really give you bang for your buck.
🔥🔥
John frankenheimer film seconds also you this. 5:17
the fountain is perfection of course it didn't make money
Godard!
How the hell did he get 160 mil after a few films?
Sold it for a billion dollars?!?!?!?
How is Requiem for a dream and black swan not mentioned? This picks the three worst movies he's ever done and also the least note worthy.
they are the most noteworthy concerning budget/cinematography.
Can you do one of these on Zach Snyder dawn of the dead [24M]… 300 [65M]… watchmen [125M]
are you South African?
No, he just sounds like that.
In my opinion, Noah is by far his worst film. Maybe too many producers had too much say? I love his film Mother!
I agree about "mother!", but I also love Noah. I think the film was entirely him, its very depressing and misanthropic even --- producers would not have pushed for that.
