we just felt really welcome with danny boyle. the addiction stuff. you know, they really got it across in the film. it was really good. it's doing something positive and making healthy choices. i think they ca ptu red healthy choices. i think they captured that well. i think its great how they looked at addiction and notjust great how they looked at addiction and not just covering great how they looked at addiction and notjust covering drugs, but facebook, porn, food. exercise. addiction covered a wide range of stuff and i think train—spotting did that. i'm looking forward to you guys having your position where you are sitting in a cinema that is absolutely packed and you are in the most anticipated film of 2017. —— pa rt of most anticipated film of 2017. —— part of the most anticipated film. and bro as massively changed since the first film. there is a new parliament, lots of money flowing in. there has also been gentrification and working class communities have been pushed to the outskirts of the city and of course, it's imposs
