This is a great film. The way the narrator describes the "new way of life" in the 1980's is chilling. I had never heard of this before, and I'm glad I finally watched this film. The idea of using the "new way of life" as an analogy for a society that had become "stupid" is very interesting. However, the way the narrator describes the people who use this new way of life is just as fascinating. It's a great film. I recommend this film to anyone who wants to learn more about the 1980's.

It was extremely disappointing to see how mainstream media coverage of this event made it seem like only one person was a victim of this horrendous tragedy, rather than thousands. The most heartbreaking part of this documentary was that even after seeing the footage of the deceased and the photos of his children and grandchildren, nobody cared. To not even mention the remaining four siblings and his wife, I found myself wondering why anyone would even care. It was horrible to see all of these people and their struggles and not a single person would talk about this tragedy, nor would anyone talk about the aftermath of it. The one person who really brought this entire situation to light was his pastor. I could feel his pain, and was deeply moved by his bravery in not allowing his congregation to sit through this video for the sake of publicity. It is so easy to say that you care for the victims, and if the news of this tragedy were to not surface, you would be ashamed of yourself. This is not an easy topic to talk about, but I believe it is important to talk about, especially since there are still so many people who have not been affected by this tragedy. For me, it was hard to watch and felt like it was a waste of time, but it does make you question your own compassion and how hard it is to watch something so horrific. I would highly recommend this film to anyone.

There is a lot of talk about marijuana, but there is also a lot of talk about booze. This documentary tells the stories of four people whose lives have been intertwined by their drug use. One man is trying to get a job in New York, while another is trying to deal with his wife's addiction to crack cocaine. The third, in his mid-30s, is trying to figure out whether he is a good dad, and the fourth, in his mid-50s, is trying to find the path to a steady job. The first half of the film is mainly focused on each of these people, and the second half is mainly focused on the effects of their drug use on their lives. Most of the time, the focus of the film is on the struggles that these people are facing, but there are also a few interesting segments as well. The first half of the film is mainly about how these people are trying to deal with their drug use, but in the second half, there are a few segments on the effects of their drug use on their lives. The main focus of the second half is how the drug use is affecting their marriages, their careers, and the way they are trying to deal with their family problems. All in all, it is a pretty good documentary, but the subject matter is a little too heavy to really get into. There are a lot of talking heads, but the focus on a single person is a little off putting. Overall, this film is worth seeing, but it is not very well produced, and it is not very well edited.

A truly inspiring and entertaining documentary about the history of cannabis. It takes a look at the lives of the people involved, and the ramifications of it all. The people interviewed are clearly in their own world, and it's a very good thing. You can see why they would be passionate about this issue, and how it affects their lives. The film is very easy to follow, and it will certainly be a topic of conversation for a long time to come. I also really liked the way they used the interviews to actually reveal some of the more interesting stories, and it was really nice to see the interviews go in such a particular direction. The documentary is a must-see for anyone interested in cannabis. 9/10

I am so glad I saw this film. I am an ex-smoker, and have to admit that it is a bit of a drag. But I am always looking for ways to quit, and I am grateful that this film was made. I am going to watch it again and again, and see how it works for me. I highly recommend this film.

This documentary is not about weed. This documentary is about people and how they deal with the hard times they are going through. Some of the subjects dealt with in this film have much more than marijuana, but the topics they are dealing with, they deal with in a drug-induced way. It is a great subject because many people are dealing with the same problems, whether it is depression, low self-esteem, or being unemployed. People will sometimes act out the way they do because of drugs or because of not having a job. Most of the people in the film are really sick people who use drugs. But people are struggling to get through the times they are dealing with. People need to have hope. This documentary is really good because it is so real. We all deal with these things, but the way it is depicted in the film, it makes it so real. The people are really honest and you really believe that they are struggling with the things that they are dealing with. It is a real story of how people deal with depression, low self-esteem, and unemployment. It is also a real story about how the majority of the people in the film are really sick people who use drugs. But when they are dealing with a problem, they try to deal with it in a different way. They may have a big problem, but they will deal with it differently. We don't know if the people in this documentary are real, but we really like to believe they are. I think this documentary is really good because it is a really good documentary about people dealing with problems. It really is interesting because it shows how people deal with the problems and the way that they deal with the problems. This documentary really shows us a lot about how people deal with depression, low self-esteem, and unemployment.

I've never seen the documentary Weed the People. And so I am not familiar with the politics surrounding it. But, my opinion on this movie was very positive. It was a good balance of humor, drama, and facts. The documentary focused on the history of marijuana use in the United States. There are many details that are very relevant to our current lives. It also gives a very balanced view of the world of marijuana. I think the documentary was great. I liked it very much.

I have seen a couple of interviews with R. Budd Dwyer about this film and it's impact on his life. I found it very intriguing and fascinating. It's an interesting look into the person who created such a powerful, powerful film. He is a genius. It's hard to explain how brilliant he was, but to say that he was a genius is a stretch. He's a genius, and he was a genius when he was alive. I saw this documentary the first time on TV and I was blown away. His art was absolutely beautiful. I wanted to see more of this film. It was very interesting, and to this day, I still watch it. It's fascinating how someone can create something so great and to be the kind of genius that he was. The way he created this film was just beautiful. I think that his work is just so phenomenal. It's really hard to explain, but it's genius. I was just blown away. There's a lot of stuff I didn't know about this genius and the impact he had on society and on the world. He really deserves all of the credit that he got. There are many things that I don't like about the film. One of the things I don't like is the way that he managed to give the film a certain kind of a pop-culture that made it popular. I mean, look at the credits for the film. Look at the credits for the music. He used a lot of popular songs and they weren't necessarily good. I mean, one of the songs in the movie that was a major hit was "Walk the Line" by country singer Willie Nelson. There's something wrong with that. I mean, it wasn't really popular when he was alive and the song wasn't really popular when he was alive. The music in the film is very influential and is really interesting. There's also a lot of people interviewed who I think are really good people, but I wouldn't really recommend that everyone watch the film. I'm not saying that it's a bad film, I'm saying that it's very interesting but it's not a great film. I think that it's very interesting that this film was made, but I think that it's a bit too long and it's not that great. I think that if you want to watch it, you should do it because it's very interesting and you'll have a good time. But I wouldn't really recommend it.

The beginning of the movie was a bit hard to follow because it seemed to go from one place to another but once it got to the actual topic of the movie, it made sense. It's a good start to a documentary on the marijuana industry. The producer does a great job with the information. She does a great job at getting to the point without going too deep. If you are a fan of marijuana or have been in the industry for any length of time, I would recommend this film to you.

I am not a marijuana user, so I will not comment on the medicinal value of marijuana. However, what the film does offer is a very good snapshot of the drug culture in the Bay Area, particularly in Oakland. It is not an "inside" look at the drug culture, but it does allow us to see the people who deal in it. The most important point of this film is that the drug culture in Oakland and the Bay Area is not unique. It is something that has been going on for a long time. The film did a good job of showing how the city was dealt with by its neighbors. I am glad that more people are getting the message that there are negative consequences to drug use and drug culture. I think this film will be useful for both young people and older people to get a better understanding of the effects of drug use. The film was very informative, but also showed the typical drug culture. It was clear that a small number of people in the drug culture are using it for the wrong reasons. For example, the "cocaine and girls" guy was out of line, but not the norm for the drug culture. It was very interesting to see how the drug culture in the Bay Area can be confused with the "rock n roll" culture. The Bay Area also has a very strong drug culture and a drug culture that is more violent and dangerous than other parts of the country. This film could help to educate people in the Bay Area and the country about the dangers of drug use. I would also like to mention the amazing actors and actresses who were in this film. A large number of the actors in this film were new to me, and they did a great job of making the film believable. The scene in which the actor and actress played themselves on the tape recorder was very touching. I would also like to mention the director, Josh Rabin, who is an amazing director. He is very well known in the Bay Area for directing high school plays, but he did a great job of directing this film. I am very interested to see what he does next.

This documentary was interesting, and at times pretty amusing. It starts out in a hilarious fashion, as we hear from the producers of the documentary, a host of other TV personalities and a number of music producers discussing the history of weed, from the dawn of the 20th century, through the Prohibition era, to the modern day. The interviews with weed industry insiders are also quite interesting, and they all seemed to be well informed on the subject matter, from the science behind the plant to the origin and growth of the drug. However, it was still not really all that interesting, and some of the producers seemed to be more interested in saying "wow" than actually talking about the subject matter. In the end, the producers just came across as very cheap. I'm not sure if it's because the documentary was well-produced, but it just didn't have enough information for me to really recommend it. I would recommend it for people who are looking for a documentary that will give you a good overview on the subject matter. It's still not a bad documentary, just not that interesting.

I enjoyed this film very much. It was not a "straight" film. The subject matter is very serious and it is a shame that the real people involved in this event (the musicians, their families, their fans, etc) were not able to tell the story that they wanted to tell. But, if you have the opportunity, go to this film and learn about the plight of many musicians and their families during the time of this very important event. It was a very nice and informative documentary that will keep you engaged and leave you with many important thoughts. A 7 out of 10 from me. The music in this film was really good. Great performances from all the musicians.

Cannabis is a popular drug in this documentary, and this particular documentary focuses on the role of the weed in American culture. It discusses the love and hate for the drug. It talks about how the drug and its negative connotations are being portrayed by the media. The most fascinating part of the documentary is how the growing of marijuana has been portrayed in various movies. This is one of those documentaries that is very well done and has an interesting storyline. However, it does have some flaws. The biggest flaw in the film is that the ending is not as clear as the rest of the film. I also felt that the director didn't go as far as he could with the ending. For example, the ending of the film is so strong that the viewer wants the main character to die. However, the director doesn't go as far as he could with the ending. Overall, this is a good documentary that has a great story that needs to be told. I recommend it to anyone.

I'm sure a lot of people are very offended by this documentary. My point of view is, the activists are the bad guys. The original documentary is informative and enlightening. It's the activists who are the bad guys. If they would have just changed the subject, and not censored it, the original documentary would be more beneficial. The people who were "reluctant" to participate in the interview were the activists. They did not want to speak about the very sensitive subjects that the activists wanted to talk about. This documentary was supposed to be about the issue of marijuana legalization, not the activist "heroes" of the movement. Marijuana is a dangerous drug, and the activists are probably the worst kind of drug warriors that exist in our society. The original documentary was really powerful and revealing. This documentary is a little more "dumbed down" than the original documentary. It is not nearly as powerful and informative. I also noticed that the people interviewed were not very enthusiastic about this documentary. I also notice that the activists did not want to talk about the controversial topics that the original documentary wanted to talk about. I do not know why this happened, and I am not sure if it's because the activists are more prone to activism than the activists are. I did not like this documentary very much. I would not recommend it.

The idea of a documentary about marijuana use is fascinating but this movie has an element of amateurishness about it. For example, we have people smoking their own urine. Of course, this is not something the filmmakers would want to show to their students or coworkers but I did feel that the editing was a bit choppy and not consistent. Also, there are a lot of parts that are not relevant to the main story and would have been better off left out. I also felt that the filmmakers tried to be too subtle in their approach. For example, they filmed a pot smoking group with no audience and then suddenly show them smoking in front of a camera. This creates a tension in the movie that was not necessary. Another example was when they interviewed some potheads. They showed a few of the people smoking and then let us know that these were the only people in the country smoking. This made me feel that I needed to take a break from the movie so that I wouldn't miss anything important. In addition, some of the interviews in the movie were extremely repetitive. For example, the journalist interviewing an actual pothead. It seems that they are filming a lot of this group of people and not really getting to know them. It's like the reporter was still working on his interview with the pothead and didn't want to finish it because he didn't want to interrupt his group of potheads. Overall, this documentary is good, but I would have liked it more if it was more consistent in its approach and if the producers had better editing.
