She Shoulda Said "No"! (1949)

At the precise moment a chorus girl ends her addiction to smoking marijuana, an exploitation filmmaker quits his dependence on using weird, out-of-focus camera shots to simulate the adverse effects of the drug. Coincidence? Nope, it’s just another classic anti-pot film in the vein of "Reefer Madness." Alan Baxter, Lila Leeds (who was busted for possession the previous year), Lyle Talbot star. 70 min. BW/Rtg: NR
