The_Munchmaster Posted December 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2010 Must watch Trainspotting again soon. However just got the DVD of Shallow Grave (1994), Danny Boyle's first feature film, i.e., before Trainspotting. Also features Ewan McGregor. So I think I'll watch it first. Maybe the nicht wi a wee dram. Watched Shallow Grave last night (wi a wee dram) and have to say it was a very good. Here's what Amazon have to say (PS. Be warned - there are no car chases during the film and no American top brass whooping and high fiving at the end): "After three Edinburgh roommates (Ewan McGregor, Christopher Eccleston, and Kerry Fox) finally choose a new roommate they can live with, they find him dead on the floor with a suitcase full of cash. While trying to remove the body and extricate themselves from the situation, they wade hip-deep into a world of drugs, greed, and madness. Danny Boyle's first feature film is a delightfully circuitous, nail-biting, and unpretentious noir, with the director--and screenwriter John Hodge--focusing on the gradual psychological disintegration of the roommates. Boyle and Hodge would gain even greater acclaim across the Atlantic with their hit follow-up, TRAINSPOTTING. Eccleston would go on to appear in films such as ELIZABETH and THE OTHERS. McGregor, of course, would become Renton in TRAINSPOTTING and eventually Obi-Wan Kenobi, among many other screen roles." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Munchmaster Posted December 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2010 And we can't have a Scotland thread without a bit of Braveheart either. I know the film is a bit corny now but it still has some great scenes, such as this one. enwqNa39DqE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radioman Posted December 19, 2010 Report Share Posted December 19, 2010 I'm liking this Scotland thread, it's very, um, Scottish. I do think it would be more authentic if the Scotsmen posting here would actually write in Scottish rather than English. Irvine Welsh did such a fine job transliterating the language into print form that it seems a sad waste not to use it. Indeed I think it should be compulsory for Scotsmen to use said rendering of their speech in all threads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hugh_Hoy Posted December 19, 2010 Report Share Posted December 19, 2010 I'm beginning to think Scotland is a fictional country, only existing in movies. HH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
