2:08 I’d rather go through that again.? Heroin is a paddle that cracks your SKULL.
They should show this at schools….. Kids do drugs to? often and this sure as hell would change their minds…
I smoke weed, but I could never touch? Heroin..
its based on the? true story of jim carrol.
This movie? reminds me of the Ben Cousins addiction to drugs. Look up the documentary Ben Cousins, Such is life.
one of my fav movies but im still a? heroin addict :/
this is my? favorite movie of all time
é um saco viu esses videos que tem,essas propagandas nem sá pra? ver o video
On one hand I agree, but in my case, I was a user when I saw it and I got into opiates after seeing the horrible withdrawal scenes and went through the hell it shows him going through. If kids have the right mentality to start with then yes the movie will most likely keep them from ever using opiates. It’s a hard road. Been clean 7 years and proud to say? it.
Radiohead <3 ?
Don’t worry weed is harmless… even alcohol? is worst than weed… 🙂
Radiohead – Everything in Its? Right Place
I REALLY hope u get some help cuzz i have friends like u? n it pains me 2 see their eyes…. They look empty :'(
@leslycatly12 i don’t know why the fuck you’re comparing those movies with this one :S i mean… not even harry potter? and twilight are comparable ! god, so stupid comment
what is the? music?
i made the nistake of shooting up? perks i wish i never did
Can anyone help explain the basketball diaries quote. i? understand the movie just struggle with the meaning of “You’re growing up. And rain sort of remains on the branches of a tree that will someday rule the Earth. And it’s good that there is rain. It clears the month of your sorry rainbow expressions, and it clears the streets of the silent armies… so we can dance. “
I’ve heard methadone is even harder.?
no i did not realize that, that actually seems shocking to me,
i can only speak for myself on this matter, this movie to me far from glamorized drug use, it made me sick to my stomach just like requiem for a dream, but just because it had that type of effect on me doesnt? mean it does for everyone
yeah man, sorry to hear that, I can really only speak for myself on this topic, i myself was prescribed to ritalin as a kid and as a teen I experienced with cocaine, but after seeing the destruction that drugs like heroin do to you it makes me not want to? experiement with anything ever again, and I think that this movie really painted a good picture of how easy it is to take the road to drugs and how your life falls to shit before you know it
Fuck all the anti-drug campaigns they show in high school to teens. Just show em Requiem? for a Dream and Basketball Diaries. Hah
How do? you find the money at 15 for that shit?
dude wtf relax on? that shit man. 15 is no age to be at that kind of shit.
I bet you didn’t realize that this film, along with several others is credited for an increase in heroine use after their releases. Studies show that drug? use in cinema actually encourages and provokes people to experiment with drugs.
