The Wide World of Drug Movies

Inspired by "The Wackness," we tour the world of drug movies, from stoner comedies like "Smiley Face" to meth dramas like "Spun."
In this week’s “The Wackness,” one-time Nickelodeon star Josh Peck plays a teenager who spends the summer of 1994 dealing pot out of an ice cream cart and consuming plenty of his own product. In honor of the film, and in particular of Ben Kingsley’s admirably fried performance as a shrink who accepts weed in lieu of cash for sessions, we’re spending this IFC News podcast in the world of drug movies, from stoner comedies like “Smiley Face” to meth dramas like “Spun.”
