T2 Trainspotting Work «90% BEST»

A pivotal scene involves Renton and Simon breaking into a pub to perform a song for a talent competition. It is a desperate, middle-aged attempt to recapture the anarchy of their youth. It is awkward, funny, and ultimately sad. The film argues that revisiting the past is dangerous; it can lead to bitterness, as seen with Simon, or violence, as seen with Begbie.
