Leaves of Grass: a movie you might not have seen.

[alexd]

Was it even in theaters in 2009? In any case, I just watched it and liked the contrast between the pot grower and the university professor, both played by Edward Norton. The pot grower's sidekick is excellent as well, and the university prof's love interest played by Keri Russell is actually kind of hawt (even though I loathed Felicity).

A nice DL or rental with some substance IMO.

My former roomate told me this was incredibly stupid and unfunny and he did not buy Norton as the pot grower at all, and it wasn't even worth a download.

:s

I just grabbed it, we'll see.

62% on Rotten Tomatoes. I've seen lower rated movies and still liked them.

Also how do you not buy someone as a pot grower?

Who doesn't grow pot these days? Like it takes someone special...

 

[Hi i'm God]

Who doesn't grow pot these days? Like it takes someone special...

So your saying majority of people grow some sort of pot.

[MoFo]

Does this have anything to do with The Walt Whitman poem/book?

 

[skin deep]

Getting real sick of the whole Edward Norton "I'm pretending to be 2 or more different people" schtick.

 

[alexd]

The majority of people I know anyway. Not sure what that say's. lol
I don't even smoke the stuff myself.

I guess it's not as common for people in Toronto as it's more difficult indoors in such close proximity to everyone else.

The funniest was last month I was helping a friend move and one of his friends shows up and drops off a truck for us, but couldn't stay cause he operates a sugar bush operation. So when we return the truck, we see this big ass woodstove lookin thing cookin away on the front lawn. Wer'e like yo, you refining some maple syrup? haha

this movie was great - it's like my past and my (potential) future in one (although I have considerable obstacles) - thanks for the tip on this film...

The book appears in the last shot of the movie.
