The Fountain

A Movie Reel

The Fountain: 6 out of 10.

My brain hurts.  I watched "The Fountain" last night, and I'm still not sure what the hell happened.  If you've seen it, you know what I mean.  My brain really is in pain.

I watched "The Fountain" because I saw it was directed by Darren Aronofsky, the man who brought us the most excellent "Requiem for a Dream".  It stars Hugh Jackman and Rachel Weisz and it's totally bizarre.

I'm a pretty smart cookie and I couldn't tell you what I saw, which is both frustrating and stimulating.  It's got me thinking, even if I am in pain.
