Directed by Bruce Robinson
influenced A Film with Me in It (2008)
Characters Themes
The initial depiction of Mark and Pierce’s down-and-out lives resembles a watered down version of Withnail & I with Moran playing Pierce as a bit of a cross between Withnail and Bernard Black.
In recent years, Bruce Robinson’s cult classic Withnail & I, the Danny Boyle double of Shallow Grave and Trainspotting and the (slightly more hopeful) films of Shane Meadows have placed lead characters in the middle of plotlines that have provided mirth, mayhem and existential angst in equally entertaining measure.
