    • Quotes

      Greyo: Dylan Thomas called Swansea "an ugly, lovely town".

      Terry: I'd call it... a Pretty Shitty City.

      Greyo: Dylan Thomas didn't do as much fucking cocaine as you, did he?

    • Alternate versions
      The American video/laserdisc version contains a pretitle scene with the Lewis twin in a Moroccan jail. They explain to the audience that Twin Town was filmed in Swansea, South Wales and not in any of the Swanseas in the US. There's also some banter about the thick accents which can be summarized as "pay attention." Director Kevin Allen plays the Moroccan jailer.

    a pretty funny and interesting film

    I enjoyed the film, but can easily see how others might not feel as I did. When I saw the preview, I was immediately interested in the movie -- despite the fact that the preview I saw revealed nothing about the film itself. The most I ever get to learn or hear about Wales is through reading Hollinshed's histories of the middle ages. It was interesting to see a film actually set in a modern Welsh town.

    Besides, it was f'ing hilarious.
