Dealing: Or The Berkeley-to-Boston Forty-Brick Lost-Bag Blues (1972)
comedy????
This was a comedy???? I love this movie (maybe because I grew up in Boston and most of the movie takes place there, the same reasoning behind my love for "The Friends of Eddie Coyle"?) I saw "Dealing" with my older sister (she said she was my mom to get me in) when I was 13 (sis/mom said I was 11 to pay kid's price)though I did find a few scenes humorous ("F* U Susan", "F* U Peter", "F* everybody", I wouldn't call it a comedy. Considering it was 1972, I'm almost amazed this movie was released in the "big theaters", trafficking marijuana, police corruption, heroin, free love, etc. J. Edgar must have been rolling on the floor of Tricky Dick's Oval Office in a fit. I often look back on this movie in my memories and laugh (mostly about being embarrassed watching the "sex scene" sitting next to my sister), but I still believe this movie to be a drama and I would love to get a copy of it (as well as the movie "Clay Pigeon" that was in the coming attractions that day
