Christiane F. German film about a young 14 year old girl who becomes a heroin addict and prostitute. David Bowie also makes an appearence in the film.
Glad you enjoyed it Malg.malg said:Got this off Amazon, along with some other recommendations. What a film. It makes Trainspotting look like a Two Ronnies sketch. What a great advert for not taking drugs. Some brilliant acting, and in no way are the two blokes made to look cool, or trendy. Brilliant stuff.mcds said:Adam and Paul-about 2 Dublin junkies.True to life,very funny and heartbreaking in places.
I didn't mind This is England, but thought it was overhyped. You are spot on about the scene with the black guy, very, very uncomfortable. Someone else recommended Happiness, and boy is that a good watch. There is a scene where a son asks his dad if he is a child abuser. Jesus, what a scene, and so well filmed. Bloody awful to watch.citykev28 said:75 posts and the only mention of my favourite ever film was to knock it - trainspotting.
also no mention of this is england? when he invites the black guy round my guts started to churn, i knew it was going to turn out horrific. great film.

That's enough of that sweyn...sweynforkbeard said:It is so annoying when you have forgotten to fill up the water reservoir in the car and drive through roadworks or the gravel drive to the home of a minor royal, and end up with a gritty film all over the windscreen that you smear everywhere and have to pull over to resort to large quantities of spittle, a handkerchief or cravat and lots of elbow grease to clear.
