Alfie for 90's generation.

Rating: 9/10 (30 October 2019)

This sort of film isn't usually my cup of tea, but like my taste in music, my taste in films is eccletic. There are echos of the Michael Caine film Alfie, Alfie spoke to his generation in the swinging sixties. His "vice" was womanising, which led to unpalatable consequences, and possible redemption. Sounds familiar dosen't it? In Trainspotting, Renton speaks to his generation, in the hedonistic 90's.
The closing credits are very similar as well.
I don't know what it is about this film that makes it so watchable, but I have seen it many times. Highly recommended.
