Excellent Drama and Learning Experience
jcvideoz12 May 2007
I could have sworn this was released by HBO. This short movie was excellent in teaching kids the effects and consequences of drug use. Not to mention protecting a friend and doing what is in their best interest.

This movie showed me a lot and probably one of the many reasons I never experimented with drugs. I am now a 30 year old mother of 2 and wished this movie was around to show my kids. All of the after school specials portrayed a special message. Why ABC stopped doing it is beyond me. Maybe if they still aired them kids today might grow up differently

I remember as if I saw it yesterday! I still remember Tammy Lauren's character. I would love to won this video if anyone knows where to get it please contact me.

Best of The AS Specials!

Best AS Special in the bunch! Wish they'd make this one available to watch again without having to buy the DVD, if that's even possible. Not sure why they always keep the best stories bound and gagged this way. Excellent anti-drug message in this episode. I was 12 or 13 when this one came out. Tammy Lauren should have made it so much further in the industry than she did. Marvelous actress. I also loved her in Crime of Innocence as Renee.

Alison Smith also did a wonderful job in this episode. They don't write stories half as well as this nowadays. And they certainly don't make actors like the the ones I grew up watching. So blessed to have had the privilege to grow up in the early 80's.
