* Creator/DarrenAronofsky has stated that Tyrone is the only character capable of reclaiming their life, and this is subtly shown in the “fetal position” scene and the “hope” each character has at the lowest moments of their lives. With Harry, there is no hope for him. With Marion, her only hope is her addiction. With Sara, her only hope is escaping reality. And with Tyrone, his only hope is the memory of his mother. Unlike the other three, Tyrone’s “hope” is the only hope that is any form of positive reinforcement. The warm memory of his mother will help Tyrone endure prison and heroin withdrawal, and the memory of his mother may ultimately help Tyrone stay clean when he gets out of prison.
