Weeds is a must-watch film for fans of powerful dramas. Nick Nolte gives a tour-de-force performance as Lee Umstetter, a San Quentin lifer who finds hope and redemption when he starts a theater troupe with other former inmates. Ernie Hudson and William Forsythe also give great supporting performances as Lee's friends and mentors. The film is beautifully shot and directed, and it explores themes of redemption, second chances, and the power of art. It is a must-watch for fans of powerful dramas set in California.
