Tropes associated with Darren Aronofsky
- 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.
