20 years later, 'Trainspotting' lads grapple with growing up

Clip: 03/24/2017 | 6m 16s

The new film "T2: Trainspotting" is about a group of best friends from the projects of Edinburgh, who come together after 20 years with a wee bit of baggage. Oscar-winner Danny Boyle returns to direct the sequel to the original 1996 movie about four heroin-using, small-crime committing, wild-living young men. Boyle talks with Jeffrey Brown about nostalgia, both in the new film and for the old one.
