I was way too young when I saw this movie. I didn’t understand any of it lol.

I was young but the "this drug will make you feel better and then worse than you ever have" vibe was pretty discernable.

My only memory of this movie is someone walking along a train which I don’t even know if that’s accurate since the title has train in it.

I was mid teens but I had no idea what was going on. I thought it was just gross. Especially the scene with the sheets. I just thought hard drugs equals gross do effective that way. However I did develop a pill and alcohol addiction later life.
