Re: Train spotting
imdb.com is your friend for all things film-related.
Ewen Bremne played Spud. The short part of his bio, on the main page, says "Frequently plays characters who are physically assaulted in some way..."
I LOVE that film! So graphic and wonderful...

Re: Train spotting
You ain't wrong! Trainspotting was the very first film I saw in a cinema where I was absoulely rivetted to my seat from start to finish. Stunning stuff, and I still have my 'choose life' poster (on it's way in the container!).
Lock Stock was the second.
2 quality films that set standards still being followed today.

"Choose life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family. Choose a ****ing big television, Choose washing machines, cars, compact disc players, and electrical tin openers. Choose good health, low cholesterol and dental insurance. Choose fixed- interest mortgage repayments. Choose a starter home. Choose your friends. Choose leisure wear and matching luggage. Choose a three piece suite on hire purchase in a range of ****ing fabrics. Choose DIY and wondering who you are on a Sunday morning. Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing sprit- crushing game shows, stuffing ****ing junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away at the end of it all, pishing you last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, ****ed-up brats you have spawned to replace yourself. Choose your future. Choose life... But why would I want to do a thing like that? "

Re: Train spotting
I just kept avoiding watching Trainspotting because I'd been told it was sad, saw it on sale at the Warehouse the other day so bought it and braced myself.
Lock stock was fab too, Pulp fiction is my most fav film.

Re: Train spotting
Some how I knew that, wonder what gave it away
I love trainspotting, great film, I've still not seen Lock stock, saw they had it in the warehouse the other day, and nearly bought it, may have to go back.
Another great film I like is 'Highlander', the movie and the music, great film.
Good suspence film to watch the first time, ' The Hitcher' with Rutger Haur or spelt something like that, not so good second time, you know what to expect.
