six movies where smoking steals the scene
DESCRIPTION
We've compiled a list of the top 6 movies where smoking simply steals the scene. Would these iconic classics be the same without a smoke in hand? We're hoping one day, the traditional cigarette in movies is replaced with a safer electronic cigarette. Until then, let's look back in time at these true classics!TRANSCRIPT
Six Movies Where Smoking Steals the
Scene
Brought to you by 21 Century Smoking – your source for making the switch to e-
cigarettes
1. The Graduate
Mrs. Robinson probably wouldn’t
look quite as demure – and,
well, let’s say it: seductive –
without a cigarette dangling between
her fingers.
2. The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
It can seem like Blondie is chewing on the same ratty
cigar for the entirety of the film,
but nothing punctuates a shoot-out like that single, swift readjustment at the end of this
scene…
3. Pulp Fiction
It’s easier to punctuate sentences in that
awkward silence with a cigarette. You’ll note that it’s sometimes
important for actors to have something to do with their hands – we
don’t want things getting too awkward,
after all…
4. Goodfellas
De Niro doesn’t get anything in
this scene except a cigarette, his
eyes, and a badass tune. That’s all the master needs,
though.
5. Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas
It’s hard to imagine Depp’s Hunter S.
Thompson without a massive cigarette holder clenched
between his teeth, seemingly never smoking it, just
holding on from start to finish like it’s the
only thing of permanence in the
entire film.
6. Girl, Interrupted
