Thank you very much!

I watched "Thankyou for Smoking" the other day and after some thinking, realised some stuff.

*SPOILERS*

For a show that is about smoking, there is a distinct lack of people smoking in the show itself. The only 2 people I could distinctly remember smoking was the soldier in the old flim and Captain, the boss of the Big Tobacco. And guess what? The soldier was shot while Captain died of a heart attack.

Sublimal messaging? Hmmm..

Well at least the main character lived because he smoked, but not once in the whole movie did I recall him smoking.

*SPOILERS*

EDIT:

According to IMDB:

From IMDB trivia:

No one is shown smoking a cigarette throughout the entire movie.

As such, I recall slightly better that the soldier did not smoke, he took one out but was shot before he could take a puff and Captain did not smoke, but was drinking quite a bit.
