One of the worst propaganda movies of all time. The acting itself is okay, but anyone that's ever smoked marijuana knows that it is nothing like alcohol and the movie takes all the issues with alcohol and attributes them to smoking pot. This programs movie was shortened to a 20 minutes version and showed at the opening of regular cinema features in the 1920's. The result of course is almost 100 years effort to correct the wrong information because so many people were indoctrinated to believe the lies.

That was definitely madness. It wasn't from the pot though.
