10 Film Scenes That Secretly Glamorised Drugs

7. Trainspotting

Drug: Heroin Again, Trainspotting will win no accolades for its depiction of an ideal lifestyle. However, as far as visual wonderment is concerned, it certainly portrays heroin use as somewhat slightly appealing. In particular, 'the worst toilet in Scotland' is a scene that truly captures the audience equally in both visual engagement and physical repulsion. Yet it does also emit a tone of under appreciation; to truly appreciate the sheer unique capability of the drug, it must be experienced. Of course, the story itself is catastrophically heartbreaking, though this scene and others like it do nothing to detriment heroin's appeal.
