Infused Film Review: 4/20 The Movie
4/20 usually finds me hanging out with my most loved and trusted and I can tell you this: I have had many great adventures and said some of the dumbest things (like asking “How many eighths are in an ounce”), but as our darkest timeline finds the entire world in quarantine, it’s going to be more of a “stay home and ‘flatten the curve’ by getting high and watching something lighthearted and fun,” kind of celebration. Enter 4/20 the movie. Written by Andy Bailey and Abraham Nseir and directed by Teri Fruichantie (Drugs and Other Love) and Noah Applebaum, 4/20 is an ensemble comedy that plays in real time with the cannabis humor we know and love, with a dash of romance and vibes of Superbad thrown in for good measure. As 4/20 begins, a dispensary owner launches into a day of haphazard activities he hopes will spark new business and keep his struggling store afloat. His biggest threat is a wideeyed drug dealer hoping to reclaim the local cannabis business.
