Sweet Bird of Youth, 1962

Paul Newman and Geraldine Page smoking hashish in ‘Sweet Bird of Youth’  1962

 

 

 

“This is pretty high-class pot. Where’d you get it?

You beautiful, stupid young man. That is not pot. It’s hashish. Moroccan, and the finest.  It’s insanity…

That hash, how’d you get hooked?…

The hashish came later, in Tangier.

How’d you get it into the States, smuggle it?

Know another way?

You mean you smuggled it right past customs, princess?

What are you trying to prove?

Nothing. No, I just…

Don’t forget, you’re the one that introduced me…to this fine old Moroccan hash.”
