Mike W @MikeW269 04/25/2021 The movie was informative which was what I wanted. Length was a bit too long. Little entertainment value if that is the objective of the watcher. The artwork associated with the subject could have been better presented thus justifying the movie's length. See more 05/09/2013 A nice history of absinthe, but I could do without the trippy camera effects that perpetuate the false hallucinatory reputation of the libation. See more 02/21/2013 This was pretty interesting given all the mystery, folklore, and misinformation surrounding Absinthe. Also cause I tried it once in 2008 in New Orleans, and it was the most disgusting AND the most expensive drink I've ever had. It was so gross that I couldn't drink it, but it was so expensive that I couldn't bear throwing it away, so I got a "to-go" cup and gave it to someone on Bourbon St. Anyway, pretty interesting documentary! See more 07/11/2012 Interesting topic but hard to read subtitles See more 07/09/2012 Very interesting to learn the history of the drink and the misunderstandings around it. See more 07/07/2012 Cool documentary that removed much of the mystery from absinthe...but not the allure... See more Read all reviews
