They insinuated it was crack, but you can't smoke crack like that. It was a plastic bottle with a straw poked in the side, and aluminum foil over the opening, with a cherrying burning substance inside. Crack takes an almost always continuous flame or high heat flame ie crack torch, and has to be smoked out of glass or metal to handle that heat. The only thing that could be smoked the way they were smoking, was pot. I hate movies that portray drug use inaccurately. Its not hard to do it right. Show a freakin glass tube or car antenna with them lighting the end. Done. Accurate. Thats crack being smoked.
First of all, I liked the movie, I thought it was very good and Bale's performance was amazing.

Now, you say crack can't be smoked like that. I wouldn't know, I've never used drugs in my life, but, I did watched the HBO Documentary from 1995 this movie talks about, and let me tell you, they show these addicts several times smoking crack, and almost all of them do it with a plastic bottle with the aluminum foil over the opening and with the tube inserted from the side of it. You should look for it, it's called "High on Crack Street".
