Trainspotting Task 3:you

The main message of the film.is that in life the decisions you make and the path you choose to take effects your future and along the way of the path you have chosen you will have difficulties possibly financially if not physically,mentally or with those that mean the most to you.Trainspotting is particularly effective of making people reassess their lives and make them aware of their mistakes and it almost like a wake up call that you need to make the most of life and take care of yourself, because if you don't nobody will.

As a British film it says a lot about our society,it taps into a different culture,making a film about drug addicts let alone have scenes where the concussion of drugs is demonstrated is taking a big step.The drugs life is presented but not as accurate and as close to reality as what Trainspotting achieved.As using drugs and the effects of them is always very delicately portrayed to make it seem better than it is where in this film it is showing being the harsh but accurate reality of this type of lifestyle.Overall the film is a great example of verisimilitude

I think the film was successful because people respected and understood the message,it certainly was eye opener apart from the obvious message that drugs are bad it also showed how and why drug addicts get to that point in their lives.It made people reassess they way that they thought about drug taking and to a certain extent be a little more sympathetic without losing their moral beliefs.In my opinion I think this film was extremely successful because it was both entertaining and educational and it left the audience thinking.
