Trainspotting - 30th Anniversary

Trainspotting is back on the big screen at the Weymouth Pavilion on Sunday 1 November, a screening marking the film's 30th anniversary. It's the one Danny Boyle directed, with Ewan McGregor leading the cast, and it's playing in the Main Auditorium.

If you've seen it, you know the story: a group of heroin addicts in Edinburgh, the fast-paced editing, the soundtrack that defined an era, and McGregor's Renton at the centre of it all. It's a film that hit hard when it first came out, and seeing it on a proper cinema screen is a different experience from watching it at home. The 30th anniversary gives it a bit of a celebratory frame, too, which is a nice way to revisit it.

It's a Sunday night showing, so it's one of those things you can head to without worrying about the work week the next morning. The screening starts at 7pm in the Main Auditorium, so you'll have plenty of time to get settled before the lights go down. If you're coming from across town, it's a straightforward trip into the Pavilion.
