You can bring Darren Aronofsy's compelling drug drama home in high definition this September. Requiem for a Dream will be released on Blu-ray on September 8. We don't have any cover art images as of yet, but the new BD disc will be priced at $19.99 SRP and you can take a look at the special features below. The film stars Jared Leto, Jennifer Connelly, Ellen Burstyn and Marlon Wayans.

Harry Goldfarb (Leto) and Marion Silver (Connelly) are lovers in Brooklyn with their version of the American dream, setting up a small business and spending the rest of their lives in love. The two are also desperate heroin addicts, a compulsion that darkens their lives. Harry's mother, Sara Goldfarb (Burstyn), is addicted to television. One day she receives a call from her favorite show and learns that she has been selected to appear on an upcoming broadcast. When she can't fit into her best red dress, her doctor prescribes diet pills, to which she swiftly and painfully becomes addicted. With its unflinching dissection of addiction, the film is a psychologically disturbing, visually captivating depiction of lost hope.
