Most of my favorite movies are either based on a true story, either the screening of a book. Trainspotting is in the second category. The movie features a group of young Scottish lads, fighting in one of life’s biggest traps: heroin. Some of them attempt to quit the habit, but it turns out to be difficult and with impact on the people close to them. I would recommend this movie for those who want to have a mouthful of some realities which most of us are ignorant towards. Anyway besides the movie I recommend the soundtrack and the book too.
