  • The film follows the history of federal policies and social attitudes towards marijuana, beginning at the turn of the twentieth century. The history presented is broken up into parts, approximately the length of a decade. Each decade is introduced by paraphrasing the official attitude towards marijuana at the time (e.g. "Marijuana will make you insane" or "Marijuana will make you addicted to heroin"), and closed by providing a figure for the amount of money spent during that period on the "war on marijuana." The film is almost completely composed of archival footage, much of which is from public domain US propaganda films and feature films such as Reefer Madness made available by the Prelinger Archive. The documentary was narrated free of charge by actor Woody Harrelson. The film won Canada's Genie Award for Best Documentary. Source: http://www.answers.com/topic/grass-1999-film The film:
