Trainspotting is one of the most iconic, influential British films ever made. Danny Boyle’s movie about taking heroin and ‘choosing life’ defined a generation like no other. Making sequels to those kinds of movies – the ones that perennially adorn student walls and define an era with every single scene – usually doesn’t seem like a good idea. But T2 uses that baggage to carve out, along with the passage of time, a surprisingly introspective follow-up.
T2 is both an epilogue and companion piece to the original, with so much of the script in active conversation with the events of the first movie, the past. Renton has been living in Amsterdam – working in financial sector, no less – ever since he screwed over his mates at the end of Trainspotting. But after suffering a mild cardiac ‘incident’ in the opening scene, he returns to Scotland to confront those he left behind – his father, now a widower, and of course, the friends he betrayed.
