Hofmann's Potion: The Pioneers of LSD
Hofmann's Potion: The Pioneers of LSD
Long before Timothy Leary urged a generation to "tune in, turn on and drop out," lysergic acid diethylamide, or LSD, was being used by researchers trying to understand the human mind. This documentary is a fascinating look at the story of "acid" before it hit the streets. Featuring interviews with many LSD pioneers, Hofmann's Potion is much more than a simple chronicle of the drug's early days. With thoughtful interviews, beautiful music and stunning cinematography, it is an invitation to look at LSD, and our world, with a more open, compassionate mind.

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

I love Peter Gabriel's music, so I do not trash this production lightly. The so called "camera work" is a disaster and very poorly shot. Too grainy, to shaky, and unable to center the subjects properly.All new directors should watch at least 3 Scorsese movies to learn how to tell a story with the camera.Instead, too many directors think shaky camera moves and bad splicing is somehow stylish. Any production should be able to tell a story on its own merits. Don't make the audience work to understand what you are trying to say. This is truly awful.
