An adrenaline shot to the heart of British cinema, Danny Boyle\u2019s darkly comic breakthrough relates the life and times of live-wire Scottish heroin addict Mark Renton (Ewan McGregor) and his misfit mates, who get high, get in trouble, get clean, and get high again, all in a heroic bid to outrun the banality of modern existence. Cut to an iconic soundtrack of Nineties techno, rock, and Brit-pop, the restoration of this cult classic chooses life again in all its ugly, beautiful, terrifying exultation.<\/p>\n
