I saw Trainspotting when I was 10 or 11


If that's not the best PSA for not doing drugs, I don't want is. The scene with the baby messed me up.

Cast looks damn good after all these years.

I saw it when it came out in 96 (I was 18). It kind of made me want to do more....

Yeah that scene made you want to stay away from that stuff.

They all still look good. I think Ewan looks more handsome now.

I watched it for the first time around that age as well. I had to wait until my sister bought it on video (good old VHS) and I watched it during a week that I was off sick from primary school. I call that responsible parenting.

It is a great anti-drug film I can remember at the time there was some outcry that the film glorified the drug culture I was thinking that the people proclaiming this must have been jumping on a bandwagon when hearing about the premise of the film and not actually watching it. The baby across the ceiling scene was the stuff of nightmares and better than the contents of most horror movies.
