actors smoking as though cigarettes are a perfectly normal part of a young life -- is that an informed choice?
I have been angry for years about smoking portrayed as an attractive or normal habit in films marketed for young-adult audiences. Check out some of the Columbia-Tristar films if you doubt me -- Spitfire Grill, The Winslow Boy, and The Luzhin Defense.
