SUMMARY:DEF CON MovieNight Nov 7 - Reefer Madness!
DESCRIPTION:In honor of the five new states that legalized marijuana in thi
 s week's US elections\, DEF CON Movie Night is showing the original  'Reef
 er Madness'. First released in1936\,  this anti-marijuana propaganda piece
  began as a church-funded film called 'Tell Your Children'. Designed to sc
 are kids away from 'jazz cigarettes'\, the plot revolves wide-eyed teens l
 urching from innocence to utter depravity after a brief dalliance with wha
 t was likely some very weak-sauce Depression-era weed. Unintentional hilar
 ity follows. \n\nThe filmmakers overplay their hand to such an extent that
  the film probably encouraged more stoners than it inhibited\, and it beca
 me a cult favorite of pot enthusiasts and connoisseurs of badfilm in the 7
 0s and inspired a remake in the 2000s. \n\nWe'll also be showing the (very
 ) short film created in 1942 by the US government to encourage the growing
  of hemp. 'Hemp for Victory' was produced and for many years disavowed by 
 the Department of  Agriculture\, and while it's not as riotously funny as 
 'Reefer Madness' it is not without charm. It's also pretty informative abo
 ut the business side of a pretty remarkable family of plants.\n\nJoin us f
 or some laughs and a pinch of agriculture propaganda at 8pm Pacific on Sat
 urday Nov 7 in the DEF CON Discord (https://discord.gg/defcon/) in movie-n
 ight-text and movie-night-voice.
