A documentary detailing Tommy Chong and Cheech Marin's rise to international stardom premiered at SXSW. The duo, credited as the first 'rock-n-roll comedians,' pioneered stoner humor in the 1970s. The documentary recounts their 50-plus years in showbiz and was produced by Robbi Chong.
We’re old, but we’re still here,” quipped Tommy Chong after the world premiere of a documentary detailing his and Cheech Marin ’s stratospheric rise to international stardom.

The documentary was produced by Robbi Chong, one of Tommy’s grown children
