NEW YORK (Wireless Flash) -- A popular pro-marijuana magazine will begin awarding an annual pot version of the Oscars to movies with the best marijuana themes. The first "High Times" magazine "Stony Awards" will be handed out Thursday night (March 2) in New York City, but here's a sneak peek of the winners... -- Kevin Spacey's performance as a pot smoker in "American Beauty" wins the Best Actor Stony while Sarah Polley receives the Best Actress nod for playing a would-be drug dealer in "Go." -- "Go" also gets the Stony for Best Picture, but "Being John Malkovich" wins an even more coveted prize: "Best Movie To Watch While Stoned." -- The Stony for the Best Pot Scene goes to the moment in "Dick" where Richard Nixon, played by Dan Hedeya, chows down on hash brownies. -- And former druggie Dennis Hopper will receive a "Lifetime Stony Achievement Award."
