Yes i have, cus i saw it at your house. Apparantly in the 90s it practically represented UKs youth and made it cool to be like that.

Yer it also caused alot of controversy and I think it was bob Dole who said during the 1996 presidential election campaign that it gloriyfied drug use. He then admitted he hadn't seen it

I don't think it does. I think it makes heroin look vile and although i wouldn't take it, it did put me off.

Alot of modern British films use drugs within it for some reason.

but he says "its like having sex and timesing it by 10 000" so id say it does glorify it a bit

yer but by saying that is then goes on to prove that that's your feeling at the time. It shows all tghe bad things but it still has to be realistic. Taking heroin makes you feel good early on

and plus he does deny whatt he says by ( when having sex) saying " i havent felt this good since somone scored against holland in the 1978 world cup" or something
