Treasures from the Yale Film Archive
Trainspotting (Danny Boyle, 1996, 35mm, 93 mins)
30th anniversary screening! With hallucinatory set pieces, a blistering soundtrack, and bursts of dark comedy, the acclaimed adaptation of Irvine Welsh’s novel finds ragged humanity in the squalor of heroin addiction. By turns anarchic and sobering, this electrifying plunge into Edinburgh’s underbelly stars Ewan McGregor, Jonny Lee Miller, Ewen Bremner, Kelly Macdonald, and Robert Carlyle. 35mm print from the Yale Film Archive.
The Treasures from the Yale Film Archive series is presented with support from Paul L. Joskow ‘70 M.Phil., ‘72 Ph.D.
Yale Film Archive screenings are always free and open to the public. See the full film schedule here.
