Woody Harrelson's 'Grass'

[Alfa]

Did anyone see Grass (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0214730/)?

This film explores the history of the American government's official policy on marijuana in the 20th century. Rising with nativist xenophobia with Mexican immigration and their taste for smoking marijuana, we see the establishment of a wrong headed federal drug policy as a crime issue as oppposed to a public health approach. Fuelled by prejudice, hysterical propaganda and political opportunism undeterred by voices of reason on the subject, we follow the story of a costly and futile crusade against a substance with questionable ill effects that has damaged basic civil liberites.

Here's the trailer:

This movie was really good I thought. I don't remember it well because I saw it when it first came out. I'm suprised we don't have it here. Anybody have a link to somewhere to watch this?

A Documentary History Of Marijuana Criminalization In The U.S.
Woody Harrelson (narrator)

Each year, hundreds of thousands of Americans are arrested for marijuana use. The cumulative cost of these arrests (and subsequent incarcerations) is estimated to be in the hundreds of billions of U.S. taxpayer dollars. That's a lot of pain and effort to ban a drug that even government experts have concluded to be relatively benign, as indeed marijuana must be since roughly a quarter of the U.S. population has used it without noticeable ill effect. So how did U.S. government policy with respect to marijuana get to be so absurd? That's the question this documentary sets out to answer.
