In my list of films, this is joint top with the Italian Job (readers gasp with amazement).
No, it's not about Trains, it's about life with drugs and what they do to you. Does this sound boring? well it's not. Go out and rent it or buy it now.
The best scene has to be Spud in the morning at his girlfriends house (watch it and you'l see what I mean).
This film changed my perspective on other movies. I now have a new standard, which so far, no other films have equalled (apart from T.I.J) or beaten.
Watch this if you like a laugh, serious drama ar Ewan McGregor.
