Trainspotting (trailer)

So I wasn't going to write the post about my most inspirational movie or past-time, because it was assigned right after I wrote that one post bearing my childhood. But then my roommates decided to raid my movies and choose to watch Trainspotting. It got me thinking about why I like this movie so much. I remember the first time I watched it (way back freshman year high school) I instantly declared it as my favorite movie of all time. Which is something I never do with anything, because I like to change my mind so much (btw I'm not so sure it's my fav anymore but it is one of the top 5). Anyway, this is one of the 1st movies i remeber seeing where everybody wasn't so good-looking and the whole environment was dirty and run-down. It's more realistic and raw than all the other shit hollywood tries to jam down our throats. It made me realize that (I came to this conclusion as to why i like the movie yesterday) things can be imperfect, maybe even to the point of making us uncomfortable, and still touch us and affect us.For your visual stimulation, here is the trailer
