Twin Town is a 1997 black comedy movie made and set in the city of Swansea, South Wales. It was directed by Kevin Allen. It stars real-life brothers Rhys Ifans and Llyr Evans and also features Dougray Scott. ==Plot== The Lewis "twins" of the title are not twins but brothers. They spend their lives stealing cars and inhalant. Fatty Lewis, their father, falls from a ladder whilst doing roofing work for Bryn Cartwright. The twins attempt to demand workers' compensation for the accident. Bryn refuses. The twins take revenge by ruining a local karaoke competition in which Bryn's daughter is singing. Bryn and Terry Walsh, a police corruption (Bryn, Terry and Terry's partner, Greyo, are involved in drug dealing), beat up the twins. As retaliation continues, feud , progressing from attacks on pets to firebombings of family homes and a number of deaths. ==Notes== Due to the involvement of ''Trainspotting'' 's director and producer as executive producers, and to the bleak portrayal of life revolving around drugs and petty (and less petty) crime, ''Twin Town'' is often described as a "Welsh ''Trainspotting''", a comparison which is almost equally often decried. Reviews and commentaries on the net fall into three main categories: some mildly positive, those which see it as an extremely poor imitation of ''Trainspotting'', and reviews along the lines of "I am from Swansea and I think it's hilarious". Much of the humour is very local, as are the accents and some of the language (eg ''amblumance'' for ambulance, "They could just cwtch up, like"). ==External links== * [http://imdb.com/title/tt0120394/ Movie main details] - Internet Movie Database
