I READ a Clockwork Orange, so I knew that theme too. I mean Malcom McDowell is a generation removed from McGregor, but there we go, battling over really inane bits instead of just going with the flow of the conversation. Well, I say it's a conversation, but that may be an exaggeration.(04-24-2017, 08:03 PM)Juniper Wrote:(04-24-2017, 12:08 PM)tvguy Wrote:I didn't know it was a guessing game.

I really am going to have to "man-up" and see this sometime. Powerful quotes above. Thanks for posting that.
It's from trainspotting. I have no idea why we were left to guess.
I take your point, Tia, but the quote from the film is a mute point if one has not seen the film, and the scene fails to connect it to THAT film, I think. So, some of us guessed.
