looking ahead to the day you die

"Guess the Train" is a movie I like very much. The name of the movie was originally a game. It refers to people who have nothing to do in the place where the train passes by, making impromptu bets to guess the time and destination of the next train to pass the time. The film reflects the most real situation of Edinburgh culture in Scotland. The four male protagonists are a generation of drug addicts in the Edinburgh area of ​​the United Kingdom, living in a trash-like bottom and enjoying themselves. Among them, Ryden is the most complacent. He has the opportunity to leave his hometown to find a decent job and live a normal life, but the price is to betray his friends. But the film is not completely dark, actively asking Mark to choose a new life track, and Mark subsequently did this. He started looking for a decent job and rented a new house. As for putting two trash friends together at the end, in my opinion, it is a very good ending-if you want to choose a new lifestyle, you must pay a price. Of course, the price of this growth is very heavy.

    It's all about choice, and it seems that I'm not far from crawling out of the toilet. It's not drug use, it's just a choice for this festering lifestyle.

    Scotland 2:1 England, the Scots climax. No one mentions the political irony and outcast feeling of the Scots in this film.

Trainspotting quotes

  • Mark "Rent-boy" Renton: It wasn't just the baby that died that day. Something inside Sick Boy was lost and never returned. It seemed that he had no theory with which to explain a moment like this... nor did I. Our only response was to keep on going and 'fuck everything'. pile misery upon misery, heap it up on a spoon and dissolve it with a drop of bile, then squirt it into a stinking, puerile vein and do it all over again. Keep on going, getting up, going out, robbing, stealing, fucking people over. Propelling ourselves with longing towards the day that it would all go wrong, because no matter how much you stash, or how much you steal you never have enough. No matter how often you go out and rob and fuck people over, you always need to get up and do it all over again.

  • Spud: [singing] Did you think I would leave you crying, when there's room on my horse for two? Climb up here, Tommy and don't be dying, I can go just as fast with two. When we grow up we'll both be soldiers And our horses will not be toys, and I wonder if we'll remember when we were two little boys.
