Trainspotting English difficulty

Is Trainspotting good for learning English?

Trainspotting is best suited to highly advanced learners who want to understand English in all its detail. Some scenes use denser language, so learners may need to pay close attention to word choice and phrasing. Also, the Scottish accent can make some lines harder to catch. The complexity of the plot makes listening more challenging because learners also need to keep track of what is happening. At an average of around 89 words per minute, the dialogue is generally manageable, though some exchanges require more attention. A learner around C1/C2 should be able to follow it, although the Scottish accent may take some time to get used to.
