Trainspotting is acknowledged to be one of the most original films to come out of Britain in the last decade, with an impact that goes beyond its influence on other filmmakers and extending to the world of pop and fashion. Made by Shallow Grave trio Danny Boyle, John Hodge and Andrew Macdonald, Trainspotting paved the way for the current boom in British film. This multi-award-winning, Oscar-nominated film is adapted from Irvine Welsh’s novel., Four young drug addict friends try to make it on their own in blue collar Edinburgh. When one tries to clean up his act in London, he finds his new success challenged when his old friends show up on his doorstep., Trainspotting is acknowledged to be one of the most original films to come out of Britain in the last decade. The multi-award- winning film based on Irvine Welsh’s novel, stars Ewan McGregor, Ewen Bremner, Jonny Lee Miller, Robert Carlyle, Kelly MacDonald and Kevin McKidd in a story of drugs, survival, scams, friendship and tragedy., A controversial, blackly comic view of the life of heroin addict Mark Renton (Ewan McGregor) and the group of junkies, deadbeats, thieves, liars, and psychopaths who he calls friends. Renton is a clever, witty anit-hero, who consciously chooses the life of a junkie over the utter boredom of everything else. While getting the squalor and degradation of the junkie lifestyle down to the last grotesque detail, Trainspotting also captures the way drugs give structure and meaning to otherwise aimless lives, and describes, in detail, the breathtaking rapture of a fix. Director Danny Boyle shows himself to be a unique talent, in this stunning and at times revolting follow-up to his earlier success Shallow Grave. Much of the success of the film is due to the performance of Ewan McGregor, who is both charming and repellant in the role of Mark. McGregor deftly plays the unrepentant Mark as he tells his story, and shows the same comic flair that he did in Shallow Grave. Danny Boyle challenges his audience as Mark explains his chosen lifestyle, but does not apologize for it, and it is this nonjudgmental stance that gives the film its power. The audience is asked neither to approve of Mark nor to emulate him. Boyle simply tells Mark’s story, brutal, funny and loathsome as it can be, leaving the moralizing to be done by others., A Scottish heroin addict tries to kick the habit, but struggles because of out-of-control mates., Smart, funny, sickly and sometimes just plain unconscious, Mark Renton is a hero for our times.

Hilarious but harrowing, the film charts the disintegration of their friendship as they proceed, seemingly inevitably, towards self-destruction. Mark alone has the insight and opportunity to escape his fate, but then again, does he really want to ‘choose life’?, Set in an underbelly of Edinburgh the city fathers never dreamed of, this is the story of Mark and his so-called friends – a bunch of losers, liars, psychos, thieves and junkies.
