Complete Record: “This film dispels that belief with hard facts about marijuana-particularly the drug’s chief psychoactive ingredient, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), and its effects on the body.” A physician shows actual medical pictures that include lung and brain biopsies, X-rays, microscopic and electron microscopic images that make a convincing case against marijuana smoking. The demonstrations are intertwined with testimonials from one-time marijuana users. They cite psychological and physiological problems including aggravation of existing illness, chronic cough, impairment of memory and judgment, dropping out of school, loss of productivity, and drug-related arrests. Shows destruction of 2800 pounds of confiscated marijuana by the Los Angeles County Sheriff Dept.
