Best British film I've seen in ages

Rating: Null/10 (12 May 1999)

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
