this story of tea and tomato purport to boast an all star hollywood cast and but even if youre a follower of film from the 1930 and 40 and i do not think you will recognize a single name in the credit . maybe lyle talbot and who screen credit total nearly three hundred role and but after that i think you would be hard press to recognize another actor in the picture . except for jack elam in one of his very first screen role while he actually be a rather good look guy back then . that might have be the single treat in the film for me . it curious how all of these exploitation film wind up with a handful of different title . i saw this picture under the name she shoulda say no and and just like the classic cult film reefer madness and it tell the story of youth run wild after fall victim to the evil terror of marihuna ( sometimes spell marijuana a a closing segment informs u ) . it hard to take seriously today of course and and i really wish there be some folk around from the era who could tell u first hand how these flick be receive back in the day . i have to say and i be really distract by alan baxter portrayal of the local pusher markey . he a dead ringer for a young jack nicholson and and if i do not know good and i would have be check the credit to see if it be him or not . another weird thing be the use of that eerie sci fi or twilight zone type music whenever folk on screen be show puff on the dreaded weed . you know and i have to laugh when i saw the i be gon na die guy under the influence . it remind me of the very first and just about only time i try pot myself . it be in an apartment that lose it heat in the winter and and my best friend be convince he be go to freeze to death . i wasn not as hysterical a rita and her friend and but i think it be all pretty funny at the time . i have a curious thought about mid way through the picture . wouldn not it be great if the coen brother take the idea of these exploitation flick and make one of their own . you could really get some mileage out of character portray by john tuturro and jon polito and and steve buscemi . jack nicholson might be a little too old for this sort of stuff and but i think a cameo would be just the right touch . i think he would be up for it .
