Choose Life - Trainspotting (1/12) Movie CLIP (1996) HD

Renton: Choose life. Choose a job.
Choose a career. Choose a family.
Choose a fucking big television.
Choose washing machines, cars, compact-disc players,
And electrical tin openers.
[ tires screech ]
[ laughs ]
Choose good health, low cholesterol,
And dental insurance.
Choose fixed-interest mortgage repayments.
Choose a starter home. Choose your friends.
Choose leisurewear and matching luggage.
Choose a three-piece suite on hire purchase
In a range of fucking fabrics.
Choose d.I.Y. And wondering who the fuck you are on a Sunday morning.
Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing,
Spirit-crushing game shows,
Stuffing fucking junk food into your mouth.
[ crowd cheering ]
[ yelling indistinctly ]
Tommy, go!
Renton: Choose rotting away at the end of it all,
Pissing your last in a miserable home,
Nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish,
Fucked-up brats that you've spawned to replace yourself.
Choose your future. Choose life.
ś here comes johnny yen again ś
ś with the liquor and drugs ś
But why would I want to do a thing like that?
ś he's gonna do another striptease ś
I chose not to choose life.
I chose something else.
And the reasons?
There are no reasons.
Who needs reasons when you've got heroin?
