Mota

I heard the character Pablo Escobar in the movie Blow say mota to Johnny Depp, who plays an American drug dealer. The word mota (marihuana, grass, weed) that had been used a couple of other times in the movie, is Mexican (also used in surrounding countries) and would most likely not be used by a Colombian speaking to an American who spoke very little Spanish. I know that dialectical precision would be asking too much of Hollywood, but that inaccuracy really caught my attention.
