Requiem For A Dream & Trainspotting

Requiem For A Dream

I really like this film. The lives of people who get hooked onto drug addictions such as cocaine, heroin & speed. My favourite is the old woman who is hooked on speed (diet pills) and is desperately trying to loose weight. She is sure one crazy lady, obsessed with television and at the same time gurning her face off while the fridge attacks her.

The music in this program is slightly odd and seems to pan from every direction, so when you're watching it in the dark you start getting paranoid sounds coming from other places... although that might just be me. I don't know why but I love films about drugs.

Trainspotting

Brilliant. Scottish tale about heroin addicts, how could it get better?

'choose life, choose career'
This film makes you feel like you can watch it over and over again. A guy plunging himself into Scotland's worst toilet to find his heroin tablets clearly makes the basis of the best film ever.

While we're on the subject of Heroin, everyone should listen to Velvet Underground - Heroin

ps. I don't take heroin!

Weird & Wonderful

I know that I have a weird taste towards things such as music & films. It varies a lot and I seem to enjoy things in life other people find odd. Sharing is caring and I'm sure there's other people out there who will have these interests... I hope.

Enjoying wacky things is unique and also interesting. To me, the strangest film ever made is so much better than your boring cowboy film. I'm not saying that all I'm going to write about is the craziest things ever, just things I find different.
