Whether preaching to the converted or faithful or not, the film GRASS, by Canadian filmmaker Ron Mann is a wild and colourful ride. Tracing the history of the laws against the sacred mj from its origins in anti-Mexican prejudice at the turn of the century, right through to when it was seen as part of the vast Communist conspiracy, we are lovingly navigated by none other than avid pro-help campaigner himself, Woody Harrelson. GRASS manages to demystify and destigmatise the whole idea of marijuana smoking. Imagine Nixon swearing in Elvis in the fight against narcotics or Jimmy Carter's quest to decriminalise cannabis thwarted when one of his aides is nabbed on cocaine charges. Side by side with pro-drug footage from the infamous Beats and the flower-power era, the jaunty journey of GRASS entertains AND informs.
