I absolutely did not understand the appeal of this film at all. It wasn't bad but it just did not resonate with me, especially given the high praise. Two unemployed guys just go and do...nothing? It wasn't even that funny as a fish out of water setting. The gay plot could even be offensive. Fav scene: debating who has to slaughter a chicken and how.

Two hapless heroes holiday in the hills, while making every word out of their mouths sound like Shakespearean drama. Typical understated British humo(u)r, but the Criterion Channel didn't have subtitles, making it a bit harder to pick up on some of the usually funny conversations. Stellar acting, but it's tragic that the character I could most relate to was the drug dealer. (I confess I really enjoyed the Star Wars/Withnail mashups you can find on YouTube.)

"My partner's got a really good idea for making dolls. His name's Presuming Ed. His sister give him the idea. She got a doll on Christmas what pisses itself. Then you gotta change its drawers for it. It's horrible really but they like that, the little girls. So we're gonna make one that shits itself as well." (He was not joking; this is a brilliant marketing idea. I'm a little high right now but I really believe that this is a brilliant idea.)
