The Drug Bust -- a 1971 Kent State University student film project.
In 1971 I took a photography class. One assignment was to make a movie. Most people who were with me in university, including me, smoked marijuana from time to time. Eventually though, most of us got tired of it and, quit smoking. But for a few years it was great fun to get together with friends and smoke a joint. I read that marijuana was a "gateway" drug. Yes, it was, it opened a gate that showed us that the laws that made marijuana illegal were ridiculous. How nice that the country is slowly decriminalizing marijuana. This movie is dedicated to the memory of the man in the movie with the mustache, Dennis Seasock. Dennis was a great friend who, in the late 1970s, became a brilliant biology high school teacher in San Francisco. He was the life of the party. He was so lively that one night in 1978 when a crazy man decided to kill the happiest man standing in line waiting to see a movie, he chose Dennis. Dennis was stabbed to death. His killer got 25 years.From:oldmemories diehardViews:0 0ratingsTime:04:49More inPeople Blogs
