About
You can watch Up in Smoke (1978) on Hoopla with a participating library card, or rent on JustWatch TV.
An unemployed pot-smoking slacker and amateur drummer, Anthony Stoner ditches his strict parents and hits the road, eventually meeting kindred spirit Pedro de Pacas. While the drug-ingesting duo is soon arrested for possession of marijuana, Anthony and Pedro get released on a technicality, allowing them to continue their many misadventures and ultimately compete in a rock band contest, where they perform the raucous tune "Earache My Eye."
A chemistry-fueled comedic rhythm drives this classic road trip as two slackers navigate a haze of absurdity and unintended chaos. Expect nothing but pure, unadulterated stoner hijinks that defined an entire subgenre of counterculture humor.
