The main aim of a black comedy is to make serious situations and show them in a lighthearted fashion to make the audience laugh. topics typically associated with the genre include:
- Death
- War
- Disabilities
- Terrorism
- Drugs
Trainspotting follows the lives of a group friends who are heroin addicts in a economically depressed Edinburgh.
Black Comedy in films such as Trainspotting puts comedic elements into serious situations but not explicitly so that people are less likely to be offended by it. Instead they do it subtly and in a way in which the audience still notice the seriousness of the matter but still make it funny
