	Young Adam Movie Review - Young Adam Movie Trailer - The Boston Globe
		"Young Adam" was filmed in summer, and the tree-lined banks of the Clyde have an effulgent green glow that almost offsets the gray industrial skies.
		"Young Adam" unfolds with an absolute minimum of dramatic highs and lows, and it's so disaffected that it prompts laughter at the wrong moments (usually when Joe is having his way with another bored conquest).
		"Young Adam" -- the title is unexplained and most likely biblical -- follows a young man aching for knowledge and heading for a fall, and it's present at the horrible moment when he arrives at both.

	BBC - Films - Young Adam (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-15)
		He is the artist as a young man: a frustrated writer drifting through life on the Scottish canals, forced to find actual paying work aboard a barge captained by salt-of-the-earth Les (Peter Mullan).
		A sense of foreboding is palpable from the outset when Joe and Les happen upon the bloated, semi-naked corpse of a young woman bobbing on the water.
		Young Adam completely shatters the sanitised image of 50s Britain as, inch by inch, Mackenzie pulls you nose-deep into Joe's crushing existential anxiety.

	Mormonism Research Ministry - Articles - "Adam-God" - Brigham Young's Theory or Divine Doctrine?
		Young was speaking under the authority of a Mormon Prophet and was not just making a public statement regarding his personal opinions.
		Some have excused Young's statements by claiming he was not speaking as a prophet because he did not begin his sermon with "Thus saith the Lord." However, LDS leaders have long said such a testing standard is incorrect.
		Apparently Young was confident with his message for on January 2, 1870, he said, "I have never yet preached a sermon and sent it out to the children of men, that they may not call Scripture" (Journal of Discourses 13:95).

	Young Adam (2004) Movie Review - The Hollywood News
		Young Adam is a cold and dreary film that benefits from fine acting.
		Young Adam takes place mostly aboard a barge in Glasgow circa 1960, and features Ewan McGregor as Joe Taylor, a working class drifter who has very little time in his life for small talk.
		There is a scene in Young Adam in which he confronts Joe, and it doesn't go in the direction I was expecting.

	Movie Review - Young Adam - www.ericdsnider.com - The Official Website of Eric D. Snider
		Used in that sense, "Adam" usually refers to the world's first man, an unspoiled creature who lived a life of ease and splendor in the Garden of Eden before he screwed up and got evicted.
		But the protagonist in "Young Adam," Joe, is a fairly wicked person, devoid of scruples and morality -- if anything, he's the "old" Adam, the one who HAS been corrupted by the flesh.
		Adam in the garden was fully grown when God put him there, after all.

	Young Adam movie Review at The Z Review UK movie review
		Young Adam is filled with sexual contact, but instead of being gratuitous like so many other movies, the sex is used as a way to show what makes the characters tick.
		The score for Young Adam is by David Byrne and is perfect at setting the tone for the movie, being melancholic, dark and subtle, never overpowering what we are watching, instead helping to draw us in to the world the director has created.
		Young Adam is beautifully shot being all dark blues and fl with light used to illuminate the scene, again drawing us into the 1950’s setting on the Union canal.

		There's no character named Adam in the film, but the canal barge on which a good deal of it takes place is named "Atlantic Eve" to be sure the allusion won't be missed.
		The Adam is Joe Taylor (Ewan McGregor), a restless, would-be writer who has taken work as the mate on a canal barge owned by Ella Gault (Tilda Swinton) and operated by her husband, Les (Peter Mullan).
		Along with the Gault's young son, the three live on the barge as it plies its way carrying coal between Glasgow and Edinburgh.

	Young Adam
		There is a moment late into “Young Adam” when I felt shivers run down my spine; a chilling moment where my impressions of the film changed and where the disturbing character at the center of this hellish ordeal finally came into full view.
		“Young Adam” is often extreme, offensive and gratuitous, and I would contend that significant segments of the film cross the threshold into pornography.
		Consequently, “Young Adam” plods along from one moment to the next, existing as little more than a series of inexplicable, detached, emotionless sexual acts.

	OFFOFFOFF film review YOUNG ADAM Scottish movie by David Mackenzie with Ewan McGregor, Tilda Swinton, Peter Mullan, ...
		Ella Gault (Swinton), barge owner, beleaguered wife, and mother of one, peels potatoes, darns socks, and swabs the decks as she and her husband Les (Mullan) trawl the canals and locks between Edinburgh and Glasgow, hauling coal and other fossil fuels.
		From the looks he's giving Ella and she him — often over dinner in the Captain's dimly lit and wafer-thin hold as Les sups his tea, son Jim (Jack McElhone) eats his chips, and Joe starts caressing Ella's thigh — it won't be long before they're savoring one of those p.c.
		In time "Young Adam" gets a bit silly — Joe can barely look at another woman without whipping out that willie of his — but the journey there is, it turns out, something you can touch with a ten-foot pole.

	RTE.ie Entertainment - Young Adam
		The body of a young woman is found by coal men Joe (McGregor) and his boss Les (Mullan) floating next to their barge on the Glasgow docks.
		Thanks to the excellent performances the dynamic between the three is well-realised, with McGregor a compelling anti-hero, Swinton acidic and Mullan's hapless boozer trapped between a worn out marriage and affection for his employee.
		But 'Young Adam' often feels like two movies rolled into one: the triangle between Joe, Ella and Les, and then the events which brought the drifter to their door.

	Young Adam
		Young Adam (2003) stars Ewan McGregor in a very dark and claustrophobic film set mainly on a river barge in Scotland.
		I am not sure young kids need to see a woman smeared with custard and ketchup, caned, then taken from behind.
		I agree with Ebert and Berardinelli that Young Adam is a very well made film, with a story told in an interesting way, and more than enough sex and nudity to spice up what is otherwise a dreary character-driven pace.

	"Life on the Barge": Film Freak Central Interviews Tilda Swinton & David Mackenzie of Young Adam
		Her work marked by a driving curiosity about the riddle of (most often sexual) identity and the role of film as oral tradition, she proves to again be the strongest ingredient of a conflicted picture, playing the role of a disquiet wife of a bargeman in Young Adam with her trademark ferocity and intelligence.
		In Young Adam, she reaches out in a way that the woman in The Deep End can't.
		DM: Consider the title of the picture, Young Adam and certainly it's a loaded one, weighed down by all that allegory and archetype you know, but the trick is that the picture is really godless in its way.

		David Mackenzie's Young Adam, based on Alexander Trocchi's existentialist novel, demonstrates that Ewan McGregor means what he says about using high-paying Hollywood roles to finance appearances in intelligent low-budget movies.
		Young Adam is nothing short of a master-piece, and those fortunate to have read the utterly remarkable novella by Alexander Trocchi will be not only astounded by the picture's faith but also how absolutely it captures its tone and atmosphere.
		McGregor is brilliant in his best performance since Trainspotting as the young beat in '50s Scotland lacking a moral compass, which as the film progresses he is forced to assess.

	Young Adam - Rotten Tomatoes
		YOUNG ADAM is David McKenzie's adaptation of Scottish Beat writer Alexander Trocchi's cult novel, a romantic murder mystery set on a barge in the canals of Scotland.
		The clammy power of Young Adam lies as much in the frank, emotional nakedness the actors bring to their roles under Mackenzie's care as in the baroque hopelessness of the plot.
		For all its coldness, Young Adam still managed to impress me thanks to the time, the place, and the amoral sobriety and desperate conviction of its central performance.

	USATODAY.com - 'Adam': An original with plenty of sin (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-15)
		Young Adam looks at drab 1950s lives, sex without satisfaction and moral guilt — all subjects to make Hellboy enthusiasts go "huh?" This is a movie to get under an adult's skin, which is the very commodity it displays enough of to earn an NC-17 rating.
		This Adam was originally created as a 1950s novel by Alexander Trocchi, a Scottish writer who died in America a heroin addict, a fitting personality makeup for someone writing about a life spent on a barge.
		The movie's protagonists, as portrayed by adapter/director David Mackenzie, are a miserably matched couple (barge owners Tilda Swinton and Peter Mullan), their live-in employee (Ewan McGregor) and a comely younger woman (Emily Mortimer) whom McGregor seems to have picked up with ease.

	Young Adam
		Whether you're talking about Young Adam the movie or young Adam the character, neither is very likable.
		Adapted from the novel by Scottish Beat writer Alexander Trocchi, Young Adam has kicked up some dust because of its NC-17 rating, which was prompted, at least in part, by the showing of Ewan McGregor in the altogether.
		The movie, which apparently takes its title from Eden-style temptation and a subsequent fall from grace, is essentially a catalog of sexual exploits, all shown in graphic detail, as our leading man Joe (McGregor) beds half the female population of 1950s Scotland.

	'Young Adam' reviewed on the official website of Laura Hird
		There were moments in the film, 'Young Adam,' based on Alexander Trocchi’s 1954 novel of the same name, that reminded me of ‘The Postman Always Rings Twice’ —simmering sexual tension between the bored housewife and the new fellow that turns up, invariably resulting in the cuckolded husband scenario.
		Set on a barge, circa 1960, cruising slowly back and forth on the river Clyde between Glasgow and Edinburgh, 'Young Adam' opens with the discovery of the floating corpse of a young woman.
		The bargemen pull her in - Les Gault (Peter Mullan) and Joe Taylor (Ewan McGregor), his cocky young helper, but it quickly becomes apparent that Joe has some prior connection with the dearly departed — he seems far more interested in the details surrounding the unknown woman than he should.
