Lối Sống Trụy Lạc (1996)

"Trainspotting" is a gritty British black comedy-drama film directed by Danny Boyle, released in 1996. Adapted from Irvine Welsh’s 1993 novel of the same name, it delves into the chaotic lives of a group of heroin addicts in Edinburgh, Scotland, during the late 1980s. The story centers on Mark Renton (Ewan McGregor), a young man caught in a cycle of drug addiction alongside his friends: the volatile Begbie (Robert Carlyle), the hapless Spud (Ewen Bremner), the charming Sick Boy (Jonny Lee Miller), and the tragic Tommy (Kevin McKidd). Through Renton’s darkly humorous narration, the film explores the highs and lows of their existence—moments of euphoria contrasted with the brutal realities of addiction, poverty, and despair. Famed for its energetic pacing, iconic soundtrack featuring artists like Iggy Pop and Underworld, and its unflinching portrayal of youth subculture, "Trainspotting" blends visceral realism with surreal stylization. It captures the allure and destruction of addiction while offering a biting commentary on societal neglect and personal choice. The film became a cultural phenomenon, lauded for its bold direction, sharp dialogue, and standout performances, particularly McGregor’s charismatic lead role. "Trainspotting" remains a landmark of 1990s cinema, celebrated for its raw honesty and enduring relevance.
