High on Crack Street: Lost Lives in Lowell

Pretty good. Makes me more excited to see 'The Fighter' when it comes out because of how messed up Dickie is. I hated what happened to all of these people and it's a really sad look on what drug use does to these people.

Mid-'90s HBO doc following three crackheads intermittently over an 18-month period, it covers all the bases you would expect from such a production in a very 'real', observational fashion, without resorting to sensationalism. Most disturbing is seeing the guys go clean for weeks or even months, only to find themselves right back where they started, often hitting a new low in the process. Will certainly make you think twice about trying that pipe for the first time.

Good doc but I question the intentions of the documentarians.
