Set in the appropriately Gothic surroundings of contemporary
Edinburgh, Shallow Grave presents a trio of affluent characters
whose feckless lives are disrupted when they discover the corpse of
their recently arrived flatmate, plus a suitcase bulging with money
beneath his bed. The stage is thus set for a morality play about
friendship and filthy lucre. The story balances on a knife-edge
between ebullience and violence as the forces of destruction gather
to claim their greedy victims. Shallow Grave won the Alexander
Korda award for Best British Film of 1994, and established the
partnership of writer John Hodge, producer Andrew Macdonald,
director Danny Boyle and actor Ewan McGregor - a partnership to be
renewed triumphantly the following year on Trainspotting.
