transporting; club/sex scene and overdose scene

Club scene

This scene opens with us seen the main characters in the club separated and doing there own thing except from stud and tommy who are talking about their relationships. You see Begbie from a distance trying to pull a girl and it looks like he's telling a story. This character loves to get in fight and love to tell people an exasperate version of these fights and that is probably doing now with this girl with the way he is gesturing. You also see Sick boy kissing a girl with another girl next to him that look very fed up. Then you see mark with a group of single people that look as if they are struggling to find anyone. Then you see stud and Tommy sick down and talking in a shot that is a direct homage to a clock work orange. Subtitles are used for 2 reasons , the music is really loud and the characters accents can be really strong at time. The subtitles are mocking that in a way. The boys are talking how Spud hasn't had sex with his girlfriend for 6 weeks. it then cuts to their girlfriends in the toilet talking about the same thing. Spuds hates it but his girlfriend is enjoy ing touching him.  The song being played is Temtation by heaven 17 which was a popular pop rock song in the 80s. The music in arund the first half of the film is a lot of of pop songs but torwards the end of the film there is more dance clubing music. The change in the sound track highlights the chnage of time from the 80s to the 90s in the film.

The girls go up to the boys and and they ask what they are talking about and the boys say foot ball and the the girls say shopping. This is a joke on jender stererotyes that girls only talk about shopping and boys only talk about sport but its ironic that they are talking about their sex lives. I feel like this is a representation how how young people scotland. Mark spots Diana for the first time and the and the song changes to Atomic by Sleeper which is a very exciting which shows what Mark and Dian do in the next scene. Diana turns away a guy that gives her a drink. Its like when Mark sees this hes more attracted to her. This shows what type of charater Dian is , very strong and confident. They leave the club and the exteria of the club is all red which tends to evoke an image of sex in films. Mark gose up to her and starts beng all witty and strange around her to try and sleep with her but Diane immediately sees through this a basically breaks down mark as a Character where he is left speachless and she is the one in control.
