Classic Film Moments Meme

By dulwichmum | December 15, 2009

I adored this film as a teenager! I tortured my devout, Irish Catholic mother Brenda, by learning the words off with far more enthusiasm than my Shakespeare;

“He is not the Messiah, he is a very naughty boy”.

Brenda relishes this next film. She particularly enjoys the scene where the feral daughter, realising the error of her ways, in particular her career as a go-go dancer (too late) and turns up at her mother’s funeral , to tear the back off the funeral car, and throw herself on her mother’s coffin, to beg forgiveness.

Brenda would have been far happier if I had become a go-go dance, instead I did something far worse… I married a protestant (inspects glossy manicure)!

I have never been a naughty girl, Brenda should be proud (stomps foot), but I consider this clip from Trainspotting, to have been a vital part of my education. When I was younger, I liked the sound of illegal drugs, but I have always had an aversion to squalor… This is why I live in Dulwich!

I would like three of my blog chums to share three of their classic film moments. I pass on this challenge to Caroline at Frog in the field, Emma K from Mommy has a headache (keep it clean sweetie, you know what a prude I am!) and Angels and Urchins.

Please name three other bloggers and pass it on!

    ooh I do thank you for passing on the baton. But right now only rudish ones spring to mind. I will put my thinking cap on.

    Just back from film school (don’t like to do things by halves). My edited masterpiece will be ready tomorrow. Lights, camera, not-a-sniff-of-X-rated-action. And who shall I nominate for supporting cast? Ta da – the golden envelope will be opened on that one tomorrow, too.
