Spun 
Dir. Jonas Akerlund US 2003 
Drug culture has been a popular theme in contemporary film. Now the scrappy little synthetic drug that could, speed, is taking it's turn in the spotlight. Spun focuses on a bunch of jaw grinding, fast talking, paranoid tweakers on a three day binge in SoCal. Jason Schwartzman (Rushmore) plays Ross, a seemingly normal guy who has one foot in his old life and the other in the grave. Unable to keep his habit under wraps, Ross takes on the job of chauffeuring The Cook, (Mickey Rourke), and his stripper girlfriend Nikki (Brittany Murphy) on various outings, all the while snorting and talking...a lot. Reminiscent of Requiem for a Dream, every time someone takes a bump, it's as if every synapse of the brain cracks. With John Leguizamo, Deborah Harry and a score by Billy Corgan of the Smashing Pumpkins. (96m)
