Stay away from drugs

"The Terrible Truth" is an American educational video from almost 65 years ago. It's a Sid Davis production and he was actually pretty prolific and experienced. But this could only make up for some extent for the lack of experience in other areas. The most interesting thing about these 10 minutes is probably that they do not make films like this one today anymore. Some may say it is a good thing. However, with how bad drug abuse has become these days, especially with people smoking weed left and right, we could very well need educational films like this one here. Yes the story is a bit absurd and there are far too many exaggerations in here to make this an authentic watch, but still. I thought this was a pretty solid watch. Weaknesses exist, but we also have to keep an eye on the positive messages. I can only imagine stoners voted this one down. Decent little documentary and I recommend it. Thumbs up.
