In response to my first formal Weed in Art piece, an anonymous commenter brought up the classic Reefer Madness, a borderline-propagandist short film from the 1930s that schools screened for students OVER DECADES, many of whose views were dictated by this now-hilariously over-the-top anti-drug PSA.  

Write All Nite‘s 2018 New Year’s resolution: evaluate how marijuana is depicted in movies and theatre. For instance, I’ll praise portrayals that view smoking weed as a cognitive stimulant, and I’ll lambast those that regurgitate tired tropes about stoners. Light one up, baby!
