Aronofsky is obsessed with making movies about obsession. In this case, a physician driven to find a permanent cure for death (and try to save his loving wife)
Thus far, it’s not my favourite in the Aronofsky catalogue ,however, there is a beautiful story here. It’s confusing initially but that isn’t a bad thing sometimes. The viewer is forced to either, make sense of it, or move on.
Our Caffeine , who art heavenly , hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come; thy will be done; on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily coffee. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. Lead us into temptation; and deliver us a triple shot cappuccino.
Is that cheesecake? OMG I love cheesecake. It’s my favourite dessert
