I feel like I've already posted my thoughts on the film too many times on this forum, but suffice to say I think it's a brilliant film. It raises a lot of interesting questions, but likely has a very simple "reality" to it where the conquistador story is Izzy's book and the spaceship story is Tommy's final chapter to that book, incorporating his own experiences.

What I'm curious about is if anyone has any insight into the lighting. Aronofsky has gone on record saying that yellow light and white light are the key to understanding the film, but I don't really see it in anyone's thoughts on the film and it never quite adds up to me on rewatch. Does anyone feel like they have additional insight into this?

Also, has anyone listened to the commentary that he put out himself since the studio wouldn't put it on the home release? Looks like it's up on YouTube here. I'm rarely a commentary person but I might have to give this a listen next time I want to revisit the film.
