'Trainspotting'

One of my absolute favorite films. I'm going back and watching some old favorites as I'm taking a break on never-seen films and focusing on TV and watching the stupid DVDs I already own.

There are so many great performances and scenes. Ewan McGregor is phenomenal and probably should not have been in another film in his life to preserve his greatness as Mark Renton.

Robert Carlyle is simply breathtakingly tense and awe inspiring. It's hard to see him in other films or TV shows and not see him break a pint glass and stab a guy in the face.

Sick Boy and Renton at the park is great. The scene when Rent runs off with the cash is super cool. Spud singing the dirge after Tommy's funeral is beautiful.

Plus, it ain't bad at all seeing super sexy Kelly Macdonald naked.
