Show Notes

<p dir="ltr">Oscar nominated director Darren Aronofsky doesn&rsquo;t shy away from gritty realism. From the ugliness of drug addiction in 'Requiem for a Dream' to the frightening discipline of a ballerina in 'Black Swan' to his latest thriller, 'Caught Stealing' starring Austin Butler. The film takes place in the pre-gentrified New York City of the 1990s. For his treat, Aronofsky pays tribute to another film that captured the dark side of the city as the backdrop for a bored guy&rsquo;s never-ending night.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
