"It really is a masterpiece, and people know that when they get the rare chance to see it." -Mickey Snyder, '08

"It will always be a haunting and magical movie"-
-Corinna MacNeice, '08

“The images are so lyrical and transfixing that sometimes it's hard to
remember the story is one of drugs and dissolution.”
"Light and atmospheric, this is a heady drama perfumed with heroin and hashish."
-from legendary figure of the times Ira Cohen, Feb ‘08
".. amazing film! .. a clear magnifying glass into the swinging London drug scene of the 60s with a great sound track. Some beautiful, as well as chilling shots of that in-between realm - the fragile edges of reality and dream, order and chaos, inertia and motion - reflecting transience, mortality and impermanence...really penetrated what was happening at that time in a lot of places." -Susanna Carlisle, '08
"What a document...the framing, pace, soundtrack, imagery were all powerful and ahead of their time."-Mariannah Amster, '08
"Touching and stirring like the Warhol Factory films..all the details, the music, clothing, hands with opulent rings, the black eyes, Beardsley-like illustrations, first India tales - one can never forget. Amazing, how beautiful the people - did anybody really die?"-Christine Culman, '08
"Your Movie Was Fantastic! There was an unrelenting stream of fabulous imagery and terrific sound...struck by the authenticity and candor of it all. It's a fabulous work of art and spectacular cinematic effort."-Lance Drake, '08
"Dope is a delicious paean to creative indolence: An endearing, authentic, and in-your-face glimpse of lives in psychic freefall."
-Timothy Wyllie, '08
"The whole film was truly a great masterpiece of period work. It got the feeling and ambience perfectly... worked as a true documentary. .. an archival gem....got me involved with the characters that were so real and in our faces."-Urszula Bolimowska, '08

"And Dope forty years later!! I still like the great editing; it's still fresh. What is it going to look like in another forty years? Memory and time" -Ace Helmick, '08
