No matter how you feel about drugs they're here and they're not going away. So deal with it. But what does "dealing with it" mean? Some people want to ban, others to preach, still others to enjoy; and then there are those who indulge to excess. . . .
The really interesting thing about "Grass" is that, its obvious pro-marijuana bias aside, what it shows us is who the American People really were 1920 -1998. You can learn a lot about a society by studying its attitude towards drugs. This stimulating film is a good place to start - or finish.
