'ECSTASY' FILM


It looks like the rave era is hitting a nostalgic high with another film on the subject about to be released. Having already seen 'Weekender' hitting the cinema screens this month, we now await the film adaption of 'Trainspotting' author Irvine Welsh's number 1 best selling novel 'Ecstasy'.
With a $5 million budget expectations are high. The soundtrack includes Paul Oakenfold, Brian Eno and Aphex Twin. The film tracks the life of a drug smuggler bringing the goods back from Amsterdam to Edinburgh for a local gangster and there's a love interest brought about through the club scene.
The film gets its premiere at the Toronto Film Festival this month before a general release in October.
