10 Film Scenes That Secretly Glamorised Drugs

3. BLOW

Drug: Cocaine Akin to Scarface, BLOW centres around the success story of a small-time cocaine dealer/smuggler who successfully makes a large fortune with relatively little long term effort. Again, the film can in no way be exclusively categorised as pro-drugs; the ultimate imprisonment of George Jung (Johnny Depp) somewhat limits the scope for optimism. However, as was the case with Tony Montana, Jung's daily profits far exceed anything a lawful man could ever hope to make. Thus, in this sense, BLOW does glamorise the use or sale of drugs to some degree.
