.Some time ago, I reviewed the film High: The True Tale of American Marijuana by Drug WarRant friend John Holowach.
It’s an powerful and excellent film.
“High” is finally being released to DVD. There’s a premiere at Columbia College tomorrow evening, and it can now be ordered at Amazon.com.
More information is available at the High site.
Note: I’m pretty sure the film has been updated (and trimmed down some) since I reviewed it. The new trailer for the film is available here.

In conjunction with the release, John Holowach has also riffed off Radley Balko’s recent call for a list of famous and productive people who have used marijuana. Here it is:
