The new documentary from filmmaker Billy Corben and rakontur, the creators of Cocaine Cowboys and The U, looks to be one of the best pot documentaries ever.
”This movie is based in part on my book,” Robert Platshorn, America’s longest-serving pot prisoner and author of Black Tuna Diaries, told Toke of the Town.
“I’m in it and it tells the story of how good Colombian weed started the current pot revolution,” Platshorn told us.
“It took a small army of gutsy South Florida smugglers to start today’s marijuana revolution,” Platshorn said. “We paid the price, but our Colombian Gold started the wave for medical marijuana and now legalization.”
“Square Grouper tells the story in our own words,” Platshorn said.
The upcoming movie covers the smuggling adventures of the Black Tunas, the Coptics and the Everglades City crew.
Also be on the lookout for another exclusive Toke of the Town interview with Platshorn once the movie is released.
