Aronofsky movies are all dark and broody with a heavyweight message
This story delves into the dark world of addiction, usually when we think of addiction we think of hard illegal drugs, however addictions can take many forms and that is explored here in great detail through the eyes of four connected people.
A cautionary anti drug tale with fantastic performances from the entire cast with special mention to Wayans in his best role to date.

"This was the start of a lifelong addiction to Twain. A must-read, at least annually, for every man, woman, and bright child. To flaming hell with any idiot who wants to bowdlerize this towering masterpiece."

Rolling Stone's 344th greatest album of all time

Book Rating
This is a memoir about a woman's addiction to porn and sex. It is well written, raw, and honest. I commend her for talking about something viewed as taboo. If she writes anything else I would be interested in reading it.
