Darren Aronofsky (born 1969) is an American film director, producer and screenwriter, known for producing art-house movies with avant-garde filming techniques. He is a close collaborator with composer Clint Mansell.

He was in a relationship with actress Rachel Weisz (who had a role in The Fountain) from 2001 to 2010. He later had a short lived relationship with Jennifer Lawrence (who starred in Mother) from 2016 to 2018.

Filmography:

Pi (1998)
Requiem for a Dream (2000, adapted from the novel)
The Fountain (2006)
The Wrestler (2008)
Black Swan (2010)
Noah (2014)
Mother (2017)

He has also been attached to other projects at various times, including an early version of what would eventually become Batman Begins, The Fighter, a remake of RoboCop that died in Development Hell before being released with a different director in 2014 and The Wolverine before James Mangold took over as director.

Darren Aronofsky provides examples of the following tropes:

Facecam: Used in Pi and Requiem for a Dream, which popularized it. One of the DVD bonus features included with Pi is a clip of Sean Gullette testing out a Facecam while walking around New York.
Fade to White
Fan Disservice: Requiem for a Dream and Black Swan. The man somehow managed to make Jennifer Connelly performing a lesbian sex act on stage and Natalie Portman making out with Mila Kunis terrifying.
Mind Screw
Production Posse: Matthew Libatique was the cinematographer of his films except The Wrestler and Clint Mansell made the score for all of them. Mark Margolis who plays a main role in Pi, has small roles in all of Aronofsky's following films. Additionally, Ellen Burstyn has roles in Requiem for a Dream and The Fountain and Sean Gullette appears in both Pi and Requiem for a Dream. Stanley B. Herman also plays a Dirty Old Man in Pi, Requiem for a Dream, and Black Swan.
