I am still perplexed at the American inability to understand the dialogue in Trainspotting. They're speaking English, just with a Scottish accent - what's the prob? :confused:

Most DVDs have hard of hearing subs - use them if need be.

Sometimes I feel like I need subs to translate accents, or "English" as opposed to "English.

I had very little problem picking up the dialect in the movie without subtitles.

The book however, makes my fucking head spin.

Damn straight. I just watched it again last night and aside from the subtle language, an idiot would be able to understand the majority of the dialog.

"Picture the scene: The other fuckin' week there, doin' the fuckin' Volley with Tommy, playing pool. I'm playing like Paul-Fuckin'-Newman by the way. Givin' the boy here the tannin' of a lifetime. So it comes to there, during the last shot, the deciding ball of the whole tournament. I'm on the black and he's sittin' in the corner looking all fuckin' biscuit-arsed. When this hard cunt comes in. Obviously fuckin' fancied himself, like. Starts staring at me. Lookin' at me, right fuckin' at me, as if to say, "Come ahead, square go." You ken me, I'm not the type of cunt that goes looking for fuckin' bother, like, but at the end of the day I'm the cunt with a pool cue and he can get the fat end in his puss any time he fucking wanted like. So I squares up, casual like. What does the hard cunt do? Or the so-called hard cunt? Shites it. Puts down his drink, turns, and gets the fuck out of there. And after that, well, the game was mine." :lol:

My advisor, who also teaches several classes in my major has a heavy Chinese accent, and also stutters.

My calc professor has a thick middle eastern accent and sometimes seems to have a vague grasp of English. If I was taking a more difficult class I'd have a hell of a time trying to understand him.

Don't give up. The movie is a fuckin' masterpiece. It's well worth fighting through the dialect boundary.
