I remember seeing this anti-drug film reel short along with a bunch of others. This was the only one that in 5-6th grade we all laughed a bit and made fun of it during the showing, LOL. --- our teacher didn't even give us a hard time about it since it was obvious this was anti-drug propaganda at its worse. the kid falling trying to take cookies from a jar was so stupid, and then they said 'drugs are like that'. At lunch that day everyone was bashing the film, throwing food on the floor and then saying "drugs are like that" etc. very dumb but some other anti-drug movies were dumb also, nothing like this one -- it takes the cake (or cookies). Thought of this since a friend that made a movie used some stock clips from it, person water skiing etc.

This educational short film features two hideously dressed children (girl and boy)who are talking about drugs, I think. The girl had a lady come and talk to her class about drugs. The girl basically recounts the speakers' message to her brother, the message seems to compare drugs to many things including a lake, children's' games, a girl getting cookies and falling, and swinging on a rope into the aforementioned lake. The kids are building something with Legos, which develops into a subplot. Eventually the Lego thing is destroyed after the girl changes the design, the kids speculate that people are like that machine, in that if you change one thing(doing drugs) you can destroy your life.

Extremely bizarre film about what makes drugs.. well.. bad. 2 laughably dressed kids in even a more laughably decorated house talk about drugs. What? You know, drugs! The kids discuss this while putting together this wicked ass contraption from Lego. From what? You know, Lego.What is WRONG with these kids? Why do they have to have everything repeated twice? Anyways, the girl apparently had a lecture about drugs, and why they're bad for you. No real hard evidence, apparently it was the beating around the bush approach they were going for. You know, Swimming is fun, but it can also be dangerous as well! Drugs are like that! Don't reach for the cookie jar, you might fall and hurt yourself! Drugs are like that. You can be really good in baseball, but sometimes you're not! Drugs are like that. Inane comparison after inane comparison are shown. And oh right, Miss Anita "homosexuals are evil" Bryant (love that 'Miss' in front of her name!) narrates. So you know it's true.
