"Alcohol is the root of all evil"? Well the root bit is possibly correct as we can make it from just about every fruit or grain and this detailed animation illustrates just what it is and how if affects our bodies. It's an anaesthetic and a stimulant, it affects vision, reason, speech and muscle co-ordination and after excess can leave us a little better than robots. The narrative touches on the dangers of driving whilst under the influence as well as addressing some of the reasons we drink it: sociability, relaxation and fun before it turns to the more menacing aspects of addiction, loneliness, anger and violence. Perhaps this chain of cause and effect can be broken? The likes of Alcoholics Anonymous can possibly help? This colourful and really quite potent film, together with an increasingly frantic score and an almost menacing commentary really does shine a light on the toxicity of booze dating back to antiquity. The underlying moral is maybe a little bit heavy handed - symptomatic of the contradictory and sometimes puritanical attitudes in the United States to drink that still prevail today, but this is still a fine example of how to deliver an important message entertainingly.
