Irvine Welsh’s Ecstasy
Based on short story The Undefeated, Adam Sinclair stars in Canadian dark romantic comedy Irvine Welsh’s Ecstasy. Directed by Rob Heydon, the film stars Sinclair as Lloyd Buist – a drug addict who smuggles ecstasy from Amsterdam. Lloyd meets Heather, who is frustrated with her uninspired marriage. Heather falls for Lloyd despite the fact that most of the time they spend together is under the influence of illicit drugs. As they experiment with this new lifestyle, they are faced with the question of whether they love their drugs, each other, or are just drugged into loving each other. We have a few tickets to give away. You want 'em? Tell us why.

I deserve them because after watching the Acid House that was based on another of Irvines books I tried acid for the 1st time, Trainspotting got me hooked on heroin... I wouldn't mind trying ecstasy but need some inspiration.
I love drugs and movies about sexy girls who use them.
Because Irvine Welsh inspired me to write.
Hmm, I think all the realtionships I have had have invovlved women who were under the influence of drugs: whether it be legal, illegal or prescription drugs. Thanks for the Headfuck's; I have had enough of them all.
Huge fan of the book and simply dying to see the movie, been hanging out for a while for this one
I LIKE IRVINE WELSH, I LIKE FREE STUFF, AND APPARENTLY I LIKE CAPS LOCK AS WELL.....
Because life is meant to be enjoyed even if sometimes it is in a state that would make u think that this movie is amazing when really its just the drugs

I am hoping it will help me have a trainspotting moment when you ''Take the best orgasm you've ever had... multiply it by a thousand, and you're still nowhere near it'' :)
theres so much crap on at the movies for a while now,beat has come up with the goods and i love free/shit.
Because I wanna go but I'm too much of a tight-arse to part with my hard-earned $$$$.
gives me an excuse to get high on a tuesday.
I don't like the drugs, but the drugs like me.
