Trash (1970)
Directed by Paul Morrissey
The movie follows Joe, a heroin addict, throughout his quest to score more drugs. The episodic plot occurs over a single day and centers on Joe's problematic relationship with his on-off, sexually frustrated girlfriend. During the course of the day, Joe overdoses in front of an upper-class couple, attempts to fool Welfare into approving his methadone treatment by having Holly fake a pregnancy, and frustrates the women in his life with his drug-induced impotence.

What critics compared Trash to
Still, there's something endearing about Åkerlund and his cast's eagerness to appall, a quality that places Spun not so much in the tradition of druggie movies like Trainspotting and Requiem for a Dream as Andy Warhol and Paul Morrissey's Heat and Trash.
