Pitt, who smoked his fair share of pot in his younger days, told the audience, "My drug days have long since passed, but I could probably land in any American city in any state and get you whatever you wanted."

The actor added, "But we still support this charade called the drug war. We spent a trillion dollars over 40 years and a lot of people have lost their lives over it."

Pitt is an executive producer of the documentary, which takes a look at America’s criminal justice system and the flaws and hypocrisy of U.S. drug policy.

The film is directed by Eugene Jarecki.
