Restless Natives (1985)
Excellent
This is one of my most favorite movies of all time. I've seen a few times on t.v. in England and I really enjoyed this film a lot. The story centers around two Edinburgh lads Will (Vincent Friell) and Ronnie (Joe Mullaney) who are always broke and plan to get cash by robbing tourist buses in non violent ways disguised as a clown and a wolf man. A great film worth seeing and more than once.
Sid and Nancy (1986)
Gary Oldman in a superb renactment of Pistols Bassist Sid Vicious
Sid & Nancy the 70's version of Kurt & Courtney. Gary portrays Sid brillantly right down to the padlock chain round his neck. Chloe makes me belive she's Nancy (particularly toward the end in the hotel room scene. This film does lag in some parts of the film but its still a great film. This film isn't for everyone (I'm surprised BBC 2 screened it uncut) if you're squeamish don't watch the tail end of the hotel room scene. A great film and Gary burst his lungs for My Way & I wanna be your Dog.
Trainspotting (1996)
Best British film I've seen in ages
I first saw this film in the U.K. in 1996 (and then almost immediately ran out and bought the film). Ewan Mcgregor portrays Mark "RENT BOY" Renton who seemingly wants to get off heroin but is always after one more hit .Ewan Bremner plays Spud an absolute muppet but who's best friends with Renton and also means almost no harm to anyone except himself. Jonny Lee Miller plays Sick Boy a fellow junkie and friend of Renton's in the film later on he gives up junk to become a dealer and pimp. Robert Carlyle plays Begbie an absolute nutter when comes to a punch up or a good kickin. Kelly Macdonald plays the sexy Diane (yummy) who Renton discovers the morning after the nightclub is a schoolgirl. This helped boost Ewan Mcgregor after this film. Kelly Macdonald is ace it's almost a shame Vincent Friell only had limited time on screen as Diane's dad. Choose life choose a job choose the green edition
