Trainspotting (1996)

 Rated R for plenty of iffy language.

trainspotting-2

The 42nd hit of your Next 100 Project heroin injection takes us into a gritty, gross and often goofy world. Danny Boyle’s ode to the the glorious highs (and dizzying lows) of the H has more energy than an atomic bomb. Bev’s boyfriend Ewan McGregor leads a nutty cast of essentially foreign-language actors. Strap, but you gotta get another addictive substance first…Sparkplug Coffee.
