Synopsis
Directed by Paul McGuigan, this three story film is based on three of Irvine Welsh's short stories. In The Granton Star Cause Stephen McCole is one of life's losers who meets God in a pub. But this God is a vengeful god... In A Soft Touch, Kevin McKidd finds himself wedded to a very pregnant Michelle Gomez even though half the male population of the town could be the father. After she gives birth, she goes back to her old ways but is it a case of always a soft touch, always a soft touch? In The Acid House, Coco Bryce (Ewan Bremner) drops a bad tab and his spirit ends up in a newborn baby who's suddenly swearing and boozing while Coco is the child, drooling and incoherent.
