I have been enjoying the way ABC has been using Kronos' theme from "Requiem for a Dream" as their "get pumped up for next week's episode of Lost" music.</p> Like a lot of things, the Fountain is perfectly easy to follow if you don’t expect it to make sense.

I'm pretty sure D.A. intended for the film to lend itself to multiple interpretations; I've talked to people who walked away with completely different takes on it.</p> <p> My interpretation? Rachel Weisz is a<i>dor</i>able.

The movie is alright, pales in comparison to Aronofsky's earlier work.</p> I agree that this soundtrack is really great. The movie is alright, pales in comparison to Aronofsky’s earlier work.
