Rewatched Trainspotting yesterday in preparation for the sequel's arrival on Monday.

Stunning film that is still relevant today. I do find the toilet and bedsheets scenes quite nauseating but once they're out of the way, I settle down and (despite the dark subject matter), actually enjoy myself.

btw When Renton retches, I find myself doing exactly the same thing. lol

The film's ending is extremely uplifting and it has a lot of enjoyable dark humour throughout. The monologues and music are excellent. Probably the last truly great British film made and easily, one of the best films of the 1990's. 10/10.

Hopefully T2 won't be too much of a letdown (tough act to follow) - really looking forward to revisiting the surviving characters, 20 years later. Roll on Monday.
