Underage Drinking in Movies (and TV)

[Grandfit]

Arguably the most egregious depiction of underage smoking was shown in a film from the late 20th century.

I remember noticing the shift in how underage drinking is portrayed in movies, too. It used to be sneaky and rebellious, but now it sometimes feels almost normalized or casual, as if adults shrug it off. When I was in high school in the mid-2000s, parties with drinking were a thing, though it wasn't something most parents would openly acknowledge or approve of. Seeing that dynamic in more recent movies, where adults are often cool with it, feels odd.

On another note, if you're looking for a good alternative to traditional smoking, something like Air Bar Nex might be interesting. It's a long-lasting disposable vape with solid flavor options that could be a less harmful switch.
