(At least that’s credible junkie behaviour.) Then, one week, in walks a beautiful woman with a fancy insect tattoo on her chest (Skye Lourie) who never gets a name in the film.
He only attends group therapy so he can meet his dealer (Joe Wilkinson), who is disloyally moving to Winchester – a change of situation that Charlie sees only in terms of how inconvenient that will be for him.

That sort of fits the cheerful, jejune amorality of this film, which treats addiction as if it’s all a bit of a lark and that the therapeutic community – like the woman who runs Charlie’s self-help group – is way too judgmental, man.Ĭharlie, you see, is one of the movie heroin addicts: lovely dewy skin and nice hair, just a bit of a rebel and a clown. But the twist – more of an ugly snarl – is unearned by the setup, and feels like the product of lazy screenwriting, devoid of psychological insight.
Clever-clogs viewers might assume that this is the setup for some unreliable-narrator shenanigans and a twist or two at the end, and you’d be right. T his mostly unamusing British comedy sets off with a framing device that sees heroin addict Charlie (George Webster) explaining recent events in his life to a rapt therapist (Alice Lowe).
