The_Munchmaster Posted January 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 The Acid House “In The Acid House director Paul McGuigan adapts three Irvine Welsh (Trainspotting) short stories. These are set in an unflinchingly depicted world of grey, breeze block tenements, wiry psychos, short leather skirts, beer, fags and drugs, kinky sex in badly wallpapered lounges, random violence, hideous-looking babies, raves, footy, discarded crisp packets and barely intelligible dialogue featuring the occasional use of non-profanity. "The Granton Star Clause" tells the unhappy tale of wee, pasty-faced Boab Doyle, who in one long, unhappy sequence loses his place in the football team, his girlfriend, his job and gets kicked out of the house by his parents, before an encounter with God (here, a hard-bitten, lager-quaffing Maurice Roeves) leads to a surreal, Kafka-esque conclusion. The second tale, "A Soft Touch", is gruellingly and well portrayed but pointlessly depressing. Kevin McKidd plays Johnny, a supermarket employee with an appalling slag-hag of a girlfriend who takes up with his new, violently psychotic and parasitical neighbour Larry. Will he stand up for himself? The answer will leave you thoroughly unsatisfied. Finally, there's "The Acid House", the funniest but silliest of the three tales in which Ewan Bremner plays an obnoxiously livewire Hibs fan who takes one too many tabs and ends up being transported into the mind of stereotypically middle-class couple's--Martin Clunes and Jemma Redgrave--baby. The Acid House is compulsive but bleak, exhilarating but ambivalent. The viewer is asked to bring their own moral compass to these stylised yet non-judgemental episodes. Fans of Trainspotting, however, will certainly find much of the scintillating same here.†I've had this DVD for years and love it, although those of a squeemish disposition may not find it quite so entertaining. MM Here's where Boab meets God in the "The Granton Star Clause". dn1DXyHSWsg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave32 Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 Work with a few RNs from Scotland. From Dingwall and 'Kyle of Lochalsh'? Something like that. One of them is extremely hot, the other two... not so much. And when they start talking gibberish I can't understand a word. But, they're all cool as fuck and they do good work. These are the people you would want administering your care if you were in a bad spot. Cheers to Scotland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
