This is a case when not only are the shots similar, but the actress is also the same. Jennifer Connelly is often called “A Woman on a Pier.” In the final scenes of 3 movies, you can see her standing on a pier.

You might have thought that all of the movies were made by the same director, but they weren’t. First, Connelly was on the pier in Dark City by Alex Proyas, then in the famous drama Requiem for a Dream by Darren Aronofsky, and a third time in House of Sand and Fog by Vadim Perelman.
