Thank You For Smoking

There are many things about the main character Nick Naylor in the film Thank You For Smoking that we can call bad. The tobacco lobbyist essentially lies to people for a living, and in doing so shares the responsibility for the health problems of cigarette smokers. In the film, we see behind the scenes as Naylor tries to get Hollywood to push cigarettes by having actors light up on camera. His actions are shameful, but the film is humorous and eye opening to the pervasive nature of big tobacco companies.
