Excerpt

Irvine Welsh’s cult novel about heroin subculture in 1980s Edinburgh is juxtaposed with painfully startling images, black comedy, surrealism, stomping soundtrack, nihilistic voice-over, and bravura performances.

"Choose life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a fucking big television. Choose washing machines, cars, compact discplayers and electrical tin openers. Choose good health, low cholesterol and dental insurance. Choose fixed interest mordgage repayments. Choose a starter home. Choose your friends. Choose leisurewear and matching luggage. Choose three-piece suit on hire purchase in a range of fucking fabrics. Choose DIY and wondering who the fuck you are on a Sunday morning. Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing, spirit-crushing game shows, stuffing fucking junk food into your mouth. Choose rotting away at the end of it all, pishing your last in a miserable home, nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish, fucked up brats that you've spawned to replace yourself. Choose your future. Choose life. But why would anyone want to do a thing like that? I chose not to choose life. I chose something else. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who needs reasons when you've got heroin?"
That is the short, brilliant introduction to Danny Boyle's best movie, with the sound of Iggy Pop's "Lust for life".
Renton seems to be rejecting the dominant ideals of his time, but deep down inside he doesn't. His "transformation" from drug addict to a proper citizen then back to drug addict and then to proper citizen is quite familiar from Alex's story in Clockwork Orange: psycho-harmless-psycho. Both movies mentioned end up showing us the same thing: No one wants to be last. Especially those who are always last. There are parts in the movie where Renton is quite optimistic and brings to mind an Oscar Wilde quote: We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.
Boyle is using surrealism to depict certain points of the characters' life, with the most impressive being the scene where Renton dives into a lavatory to find his drugs. Surrealism had until then been used mostly from directors such as Kubrick, Pasolini and Bunuel.
