A few names recur in the cast lists. JustWatch lists Ellen Burstyn among the top-billed cast of both Requiem for a Dream and The Fountain; it lists Jennifer Connelly among the top-billed cast of both Requiem for a Dream and Noah.
By JustWatch’s runtimes, Pi is the shortest at 1 hr 24 min and Noah the longest at 2 hr 18 min. All 9 back to back would take about 16 hours.
