Hi Roland,

Subject: Re: Drugs and Film

Roland:

Let me be the first to state the obvious:  Terry Gilliam's "Fear and
Loathing in Las Vegas" is one of the films most committed to
representing drug experience on screen.

As for filmmakers using drugs to create their works: if you read through
Peter Biskind's book "Easy Riders and Raging Bulls" you'll get plenty of
fuel for that fire.  I can't say how credible the book is, but with
stories about directors listing particular substances next to specific
scenes on Jack Nicholson's scripts in order to keep continuity over a
shoot, or Hal Ashby locking himself in the editing suite for days at a
time with pipe ablaze and acid aplenty, the book is well worth a read.

Randolph.

Hi All,

I am putting together a seminar paper on drugs in film. From the
earliest examples to the many more recent ones. It will have a heavy
sociological bent - focussing on the ways film refracts certain social
patterns and cultural contexts.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to the essential films for
inclusion? Scenes of drug use? How film is able to represent drug
experience? Directors who have used drugs to make films or write them?
etc etc

Any ideas?

Thanks
