Shallow Grave (1995)
Critique of Danny Boyle's First Feature!
Danny Boyle's debut film, starring Ewan McGregor, Christopher Eccleston, Kerry Fox and Keith Allen, raises a morale dilemma. What would you do if you found a suitcase with £1m alongside your dead lodger. I'm guessing it wouldn't be to cut him up and bury him, then fight with each other.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

Danny Boyle is ace. Another funny critique. 😁 I know of the film, but haven’t seen his debut!
Hahahahahhahahaha omgggg I gotta watch this!
Why, no that would not be my first thought... This movie sounds so fun! I'm getting "Death at a Funeral" vibes, perhaps? Gosh, I didn't even recognize Eccleston until I read the review! Wow...he looks so different in every picture I see of him, lol. So used to the black leather jacket...
Great review. But did you mean to say "morale" rather than "moral"? I will grant that finding such a bag could quite reasonably affect morale, both up & down, but is that what you intended?
Wow 😮 I never heard of this film till now. I am very intrigued how this movie ended
