Cannabis movies

I'm looking for good movies to show on a canna-event. It's going to be the presentation of a new legalisation movement and the audience is expected to be interested in cannabis (of course :)) but not really very well informed. So I'm looking for movies or documentaries that are the most informative about cannabis, cannabis proibition/legalisation, cannabis activism, cannabis culture...

I need two or three good ones for projection sessions and maybe a few more to use as "background" (no sound) while the rest of the event and the following party take place. For the "background" movies I'm thinking maybe "Reefer madness" (now that's a stoner classic lol :D) and some grow movies but for the sessions I'm really out of ideias. Can you guys give me some help on this.

George Cervantas does a good grow DVD that you could extract segments from. I think he is in Spain and has a web site with some info. There are many comedies and some serious movies like "Homegrown", but I can't really think of any documentaries.

I will keep looking. Good for you, spreading the good word..

You should contact the admin of http://www.pottv.net maybe they would allow you to use some of their vids. I would just tell them what your wanting to do with them, what the event is about, ect. They say their for the cause so hopefully they would allow you to use them. I cant really think of a documentary but they might have one on there, I know there are alot of medi weed vids on there, most are under an hour though.

Hope this helps

Good luck Dozer, be sure to give us a convention report with pics, please

green britain would definately be a good movie to show at this kind of event.

and maybe 'grass' the documentary narrated by woody harrelson this is excellent showing a lot of the old 'reefer madness' type propoganada films etc.

hope this helps, and good luck with the event.

Thanks for the help guys! :)

"Grass" seems to be a perfect choice, I've never watched it but I've been told before it is a great movie to show how cannabis became illegal. Now I just have to find "Grass" with portuguese subtitles. :)

Grow movies are not hard to come by. I have the spanish "Cannabis Indoor" and the almost classic :)"Mr Green". I'm going to check if I can find that one from Cervantes MH, that should be a good one.
