    <reviewbody>Want to kill a party?  Play this!  
It's a brief but very well-done spot for alcoholism awareness, which raises the quite legitimate question: why do we drink to have fun?   The acting is much better than average for a PSA, as the party-goers begin to realize they might have a problem.  The 70's color film has mellowed nicely, and for you film-makers out there, it's got a classic leader as well!  All that in just about a minute...you can't go wrong here.</reviewbody>

    <reviewbody>Very cool psa, totally 70s vibe.

I think the woman in the leader at 7 seconds into the video is white....</reviewbody>

    <reviewbody>A Party gets spoiled when someone starts asking test questions about whether theyÃÂÃÂre an alcoholic or not. Gee, what a way to spoil the party. Least he didnÃÂÃÂt bother the China Girl!</reviewbody>

    <reviewbody>From 1971-1977 he appeared on the children's show "The Electric Company". During that time, he would often do commericals or public service anouncements. He doesn't speak to the camera unfortunately, but you can see him in an isolated close-up 2/3rds of the way in.</reviewbody>
    <reviewtitle>With Morgan Freeman!</reviewtitle>

    <reviewbody>Middle-aged people at a wild, drunken party are seriously bummed out by the National Drinking Game, which is actually an assessment test for alcoholism. From the looks on their faces, IÃ¢ÂÂd say most of these partygoers are alcoholics, which is no surprise, frankly. Would that it be so easy to break through denial in real life.
Ratings: Camp/Humor Value: ***. Weirdness: ***. Historical Interest: ****. Overall Rating: ****.</reviewbody>

    <reviewbody>The African-American in this PSA looks more like Jesse Jackson (a round face) than he does Morgan Freeman (a long, narrow face).
Also, as one idiot points out, the girl in the leader 7 seconds into the clip IS white, as explained in the initial decription of the clip.</reviewbody>
    <reviewtitle>2 things: that ain't Morgan freeman and the "China Girl" is white!</reviewtitle>
