| | Scotland on Sunday - Review - Thwarted filmmaker's original vision finally finds a home in print (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24) |
 | | Although Aronofsky has since completed a celluloid version of The Fountain (working from a rewritten, stripped-down script and a much lower budget), this book, created in collaboration with artist Kent Williams, is the final incarnation of his original vision. |
| | Aronofsky describes the book and the film as siblings, referring to their shared beginnings but also emphasising their differences; the latter not so much, one suspects, in terms of the different medium, rather the differing paths if not outcomes of the twin stories. |
| | Nevertheless, Aronofsky's musings on the nature of life, love and death are intriguing, and this book remains a tantalising teaser of what he might have put on the big screen, and what he finally managed to. |
