Trainspotting

Det är lite underligt att "Trainspotting" faktiskt inte används mer i skolorna som någon form av undervisning när det gäller droger.

Denna tragikomiska pärla om eskapism kombinerar stil, form och dialog perfekt.

A thrillingly squalid, scabrously funny portrait of young punk ne'er-do-wells in Edinburgh, it's about characters who are tossing away their lives for the sheer reckless hell of it.

If we Brits can make movies this good about subjects this horrific, what chance does Tinseltown have?

...manages to be both inarguably of its time, the mid 90s, but also has not dated nearly as badly as most youth culture movies tend to.
