If you haven't seen "Thank You for Smoking," you must go out and see it. Now. Go on. I'll wait for you to come back and add your commentary.
No matter what side of the tobacco issue you're on, the movie is hilarious, and makes fun of both sides...leaving you to draw your own conclusions. Which is the whole point of the movie, really. To think for yourself and not let others make decisions for you.
The cast is fabulous. As is the soundtrack. Believe the reviews and see this movie. And then have a long drag off of a cigarette. You'll be happy you did.
P.S: while the references to Winston-Salem are somewhat correct (after all, it is the birthplace of RJ Reynolds and Camels), there is, in fact, no Winston-Salem General Hospital. And no crazy men-only smoking lounge. And I don't think that any scenes were actually filmed there. But other than that, all references are valid. Carry on.
