Thought we could use a place to post documentaries and historical coverage of cannabis on this site so made this thread. ![]()
Found this one from 2002 that looks at how the weed business functioned in NYC and also features an interview with Emery in Vancouver.
Year: 2002

Publisher: MTV
Acapulco Gold (1973)
“Made in 1973, this independently produced time capsule documentary deals with the subject of marijuana harvesting, cultivation, transportation, distribution and finally inhalation in the United States. The bulk of the film is constructed as a series of adventures by a group of college boys, using cameras to document their investigations into how to secure a large supply of marijuana. They interview various American growers (‘experts’), test ‘wild’ marijuana in the American mid-West, then travel to Mexico to seek out the ‘super weed’ cultivated in the hills outside of Acapulco, and eventually smuggle it into the States.”
Love the thread @TheHereticCatgirl !
There’s another thread already going with a bunch of historical weed history video’s but I don’t think it’s all docs.
Just a head’s up that this thread may end up getting merged. ![]()
Beautiful!!! ![]()
I was searching around for where to post stuff like this, so good to know there is an area. If stuff gets merged, even better.
Whatever makes it easiest for people to find. ![]()
Watch Woody Harelsons movie called “Grass”.Give a history of how the man has tried to eradicate that plant and failed miserably everytime.
Beautiful, thanks for the recommendation! ![]()

Title: “The Truth About Smoking Cannabis”
Year: 2008
Publisher: BBC
Topics covered and Catgirl’s Summary:
A look at the UK’s attitudes toward and laws regarding cannabis use. While subject to some bias (particularly regarding the UK’s “skunk” panic), this documentary shows the state of cannabis research knowledge at the time and introduces cannabidiol to the british public.
While some of the information has been shown to be laughably inaccurate now, seeing the formation of the ideas about the entourage effect is interesting. Definitely worth a look if you are curious about 00’s cannabis in the UK.
not really a documentary, but i stumbled onto these cool old photos the other day… figure why not put em up… I don’t know…
Granny won the “best of” in California City, CA, 1973.
