Louise: So what happened, were you bored in Manchester?
Johnny: Was I bored? No, I wasn't fuckin' bored. I'm never bored. That's the trouble with everybody - you're all so bored. You've had nature explained to you and you're bored with it, you've had the living body explained to you and you're bored with it, you've had the universe explained to you and you're bored with it. So now you want cheap thrills and like plenty of them, and it don't matter how tawdry or vacuous they are as long as it's new, as long as it's new, as long as it flashes and fuckin' bleeps in forty fuckin' different colors. So whatever else you can say about me, I'm not fuckin' bored.
Johnny is the embodiment of postmodernism, criticising everyone who is trapped, trapped in space, trapped in time, trapped in relationships or trapped in a meaningless job. But simultaneously Johnny himself is trapped in his inability to commit to anything. (I've got an infinite places to go, the problem is where to stay). His now famous phrase against the urge for 'cheap thrills' to tackle the boredom of a society which has achieved so much, but can't seem to find any meaning in it, reflects also his own inability to find any joy in the knowledge that he has of the world and of the people around him. Only superficial and harmful sexual relationships and cynicism remain.
Simultaneously the film is about love, sex, meaning, and the feeling of loneliness in a city full of people. It is still as relevant as in the 90s.
