'''Ecstasy''' is a romantic [[comedy]], set in [[Scotland]] and [[Amsterdam]]. It is based on the controversial book, Ecstasy by Irvine Welsh, which was translated into 20 languages and was a number one bestseller in over 20 countries. Mr. Welsh's first book, [[Trainspotting]], published in [[1993]] (and voted by [[Waterstone]], Europe's largest bookstore chain, as one of the Ten Best Books of the Century) and sold over 1 million copies in the [[UK]] alone, has its own Cinematic Cinderella success story; the film, produced on a budget of USD$3.5 Million, theatrically grossed over USD$72 Million worldwide, making it the most profitable film in [[1996]]. |
|||
''[[Ecstasy: Three Tales of Chemical Romance]]'' (a collection of three short stories) was published in [[1996]]. The last short story, ''The Undefeated'', was adapted into the play Ecstasy (by Montreal-based Keith Wyatt) that performed to sold-out audiences and critical acclaim across [[Canada]] and at the [[Fringe Festival]] in [[Edinburgh]]. After seeing the play, Irvine called it the "best adaptation" of his work. |
