Part 2: • " ASSASSIN OF YOUTH " ...
Released in 1937 and directed by Elmer Clifton, "Assassin of Youth" is a famous B-picture about the ill effects of marijuana / cannabis. The plot of the movie centers on a ring of teens who smoke marijuana, who entice an innocent high school girl and lead her on the road to addiction and worse. Meanwhile, a reporter goes undercover as he tries to reveal the story of the gang and expose them for what they are -- dope fiends.
"Assassin of Youth" features a screenplay by Charles A. Browne from a story written by Leo McCarthy. The film is often compared to "Reefer Madness", and has many obvious similarities including sharing cast member Dorothy Short. The film's memorable title was taken from a Reader's Digest article written by the USA "drug czar" of that era, Harry J. Anslinger. The film stars Luana Walters as Joan Barry, Arthur Gardner as Art Brighton, Dorothy Short as Marjorie 'Marge' Barry, Earl Dwire as Henry 'Pop' Brady, Fern Emmett as Henrietta Frisbee, Henry Roquemore as Judge George Herbert, Fay McKenzie as Linda Clayton and Michael Owen as Jack Howard.

I was a youth when i started smoking reefers. I'm now 72 and haven't yet been assassinated.
That editor on the phone at the start is smoking the biggest blunt I've ever seen LOL
I guess it was a cigar
As if tabacco would be healthyer than cannabis
This movie is rhe real assassin of youth. Im 20 minutes in and already feel 40 years older
I don't smoke it but thousand and thousands more people died in car accidents from drunk driving. People who drink alcohol always want to fight. When I was a little boy my grandma and step grandfather drank a lot. When I would peddle my bike over to visit my grandma if I seen sticks of furniture on the front porch it meant to keep peddling because they were both drunk and fighting. lol
Actually 85% of all DUI Deaths are due to alcohol and other controlled substances and 90%+ of those are Marijuana... 💀 ☠️
The court scene was like a perry Mason episode were the culprit breaks down and confessed to what he charged with. Classic
By the way, don't worry about the alcohol, cigarettes, asbestos and radioactive elements. Those things are government approved and will make you strong and healthy! 💪
Don’t forget DDT!
@@CEOkiller Nor Agent Orange for those Vietnam War Vets!
Nothing a glass of Radium water won't cure.
What was funny about back then you would have doctors telling you how to live your life healthy while they were smoking a cigarette or a cigar
asbestos was actually a govt approved fire retardant until the late 80s
Omg... this is hilarious!! Gonna watch Reefer Madness now.. I needed a good laugh...
So funny! Best anti-drug film ever!
There are two movies here...Which was the best?
2:41 best acting I've ever seen!
About five years before the guys had to fight the Nazis and Japanese, let em party!
6:12 Not only marihuana, gayness also invaded the town!
I got an unusual "high" by watching this
Watching this as i smoke weed shows how much society has progressed
If you’re a middle-aged woman and you’re high on reefer, don’t ride anything on wheels. If you’re a little buzzed, you’re high, or even if you’re just a little loosened up, youre high.
Best laugh I've had in awhile!! Think I'm gonna smoke a joint or 6 now!!!!🤣🤣🤣 WAIT... WHAT IF I STAB SOMEONE?!? AAAAUUUUGGGHHH!!!!
Enjoying this while vaping cannabis.
Probably the healthiest way to consume weed.
@@tomtom3889 wouldn't that be the water bong?
@@raysteigerwalt5272 no because vaping it isn't actually burning it. A water bong still has burning plant matter, so you are still inhaling smoke and small particles
Lust Britney griner does or should say did she won't be vaping hash oil
For 9 yrs lol 😂
Was the woman on the scooter the Wicked Witch of the West?
No the witch rode a bike
Close enough!
Another fine example of attempted social engineering, right after alcohol prohibition ended (from 1920 until 1933).
when they ended one prohibition they needed something else to pick on - they picked on the wrong substance of course they didnt know back then cigarettes where deadly and it was to be another 20 years later they knew the truth
this movie comedy gold - i mean the lies they tell about weed is hilarious
After 55 years I can'T FIND IT FUNNY NO MORE:::
sad to see how easily swayed the general public was/is. and the pure trust the public had in the Gov. and what they said. truly sad.
Nothing has changed, especially the world we live in right now.
@@2147B Yes. Now they believe Mr. Pillow.
This was 1937, the first year cannabis was illegal. Recent patents made the hemp industry a viable competitor to the southern cotton industry. Note that industrial hemp was included in their ban. That is, except for the wartime years, in which they actually funded American farmers to grow hemp.
Not in today's age nobody Goin get behind n support Biden n harris
I want my malted milk so childish .in those days a woman could Ben slapped
Watching this after returning from the dispensary with my monthly supplies of edibles. This is hilarious 😂
lol I'm smoking a fatty blunt watching this and laughing at the nostalgic propaganda 🤣👍
Smoking out of my bubbler cuz I'm too lazy to roll a blunt
@@ajjackson1526 mood
These kind of films went into lot ww2 propaganda films like know your enemies .were they instructed you how to tell if your neighbors was a nazi spy. Or japanese citizen has evil intentions . Talk bout racial profiling. Especially if they say nazi sympathizers were Americans who proudly acknowledge their German heritage. And japanese Americans who they say are proudly wearing their traditional samurai attire and practice their japanese tea n samurai traditions . Yeah that automatically made them anti American. Surprised there not saying California Chicago's are the main front of sale of Marijuana
been there done that
Usually when people jumped from 5 story or high rise building in 20 s n 30s Usually a stock market broker who wasted investment money or some sap of a investor made careless investment. There jumped out a window
Wolfe Blitzer beat up Jimmy Olsen for that role...
It seems if I want pure comedy go to the 30's ads
I will always like the classic anti marijuana drug films i liked when they showed the effects of the youth smoking marijuana and showing how they react and tthe consequences of smoking marijuana and the way they dress speak and socialize with each other in the 1937
Lol. Chopping off people's heads and falling out 5th story windows?
@@MattyEngland yep. Gotta make hemp illegal so cotton and oil can be king
You must have had a terrible childhood lol
Those old men loved the Parisian Flip®
i thought people nowadays are mean, but i see where it came from
Because the editor that is smoking that cigar is so much healthier. LOL.
A lot healthier with the much stronger marijuana grown today
You sure it was a cigar?
Brandon loves Parisian Flip!
👏👏 👏👏👏
LET'S GO BRANDON!
@@en.copedawg2321 Are you smoking brandon
She must have smoked a reefer and really freaked out ...
These are great after a toke or two.
In those days it was a puff lol
I'm sure the scooter that lady is riding had met rigorous safety standards.
Wow, the old guy on the phone at the beginning is toking on one big blunt !!!!
Play faster play faster
Ya, apparently in the 1930s Marijuana was laced with high doses of PCP lol.
1937 was the first year cannabis was illegal
I thought it 1925 Harrison act .
1927 where i live
Sharing
ah yes
Don't drive stoned, folks LOL
Drive stoned all time
I always find films like these comedies
Filled with lies.
They are quite racist in nature.
" Don`t trust or take medical advice from anyone who would leave your ass in Afghanistan."
Delysid is the answer
Cannibis .
The arabs called it hashisha the english translation of wich is ASSASSIN! Im not a linguistic scholar but id bet it translates better to hash.
As much as this movie is ridiculous propaganda, believe it or not that etymological morsel is actually true
Wow. I want to party with THEM.
These guys kinda would explode todat
This is some serious who dun it, glass onion plot for an anti weed flick. Who else got here from the phrase exploitation in the title am I right?! High five?! No? Uhh nevermind I was talking about something else.
This is some bs…haha. Such propaganda, not based on science…hmmm. Sounds familiar. “we want Linda!”
The last 13 minutes are missing. 🤨
NOPE. Always read the description for links: ua-cam.com/video/Vw5AJQdW1Qw/v-deo.html
What did jesus need to smoke🤔?
It's obvious Jesus smoked Lucky Strikes or Winston. Most likely he switched to Marlboro after he became a zombie, back from the dead.
@@LewdCustomer ?.ànd what does the bible say he does of people who mock him..😒🔥🔥🔥🔥
Funny looking back at how right they were. The marijuana itself isn’t the main issue... it was the way of life it brought with it that would cause the problems. Our world is falling apart.
You're joking right?
@@OmegaGenesisTrueEarth He's not wrong, but not exactly right either. Its not that black and white.
The way of life it brought with it was(is) directly a result of draconian laws and lack of real information. Alcohol is worse and more destructive by far.
I agree.
@@JohnRay1969 true, which is why I don’t know why they can’t do it with weed. They stopped banning alcohol after 10 years of people making it themselves, and people grow weed all the time so the same thing should happen
Heroin and Fentanyl aren't bad either. The unreliable dosages are on the street though. Legalize all the drugs.
Let the evolution continue and turn man into degenerate.
Fentanyl is the worst thing to happen to street drugs ever. Opiates killed a lot of people and many more overdosed. You don't overdose on Fentanyl you just die.
@@JohnRay1969 they removed your comment my friend.
@@joshuagibson2520 Who did?
@@JohnRay1969 UA-cam censors. Certain key words will trigger removal of a comment.
Classic propaganda pro drug war...
These films also targeted groups by race as well. There one that blames Chicano or Spanish decent groups as main distributors of reefer .and Chinese for distribution of opium
Wow this must be the very science that the environmentalists believe.
10/10
Let's Go Brandon!
