The Florida Connection

The Florida Connection, also known as Weed,[1] is a 1978[2] film starring former NFL player Dan Pastorini and his Playboy model and actress wife June Wilkinson. It was her first film after a ten-year hiatus. The film is a "violent drug-smuggling tale."[3]

Maury Cramer wrote and produced the film with director Robert J. Emery.[4] The movie is set in Florida's swamps.[5]

Jack L. Richards was the director of photography

The film is about drug smugglers, corrupt police, and officers of the U.S. Treasury.[6] Wilkinson portrays a charter pilot helping a drug smuggler. The film includes scenes with air boats, dog racing, chases, shoot-outs, a drunk, and features fashions of the 1970s.[7]

Pastorini said that he felt good about his acting until watching the film and then cringed at his stilted delivery.[8]

Variety's Complete Home Video Directory described the film as "Adventures take place in the drug-trafficking corner of the Keys."[9]
