FILM DESCRIPTION:
The directorial debut from Jason Reitman, the media satire Thank You for Smoking stars Aaron Eckhart as Nick, a man who has turned spinning news and information into a successful career for the tobacco lobby. He plots strategies with his colleagues (Maria Bello and David Koechner) on how to make other dangerous products more appealing to the American public. Nick ends up going to Hollywood with his young son (Cameron Bright) in order to get a movie producer to include characters smoking in his newest film. Nick is kidnapped by a vigilante group concerned about the harmful nature of his product. The cast includes William H. Macy as a Senator who runs on a strong anti-tobacco position, Rob Lowe as the Hollywood bigwig, and Robert Duvall as the king of the tobacco industry. The film is an adaptation of the novel of the same name by Christopher Buckley.

Every actor has that role they were born to play. Hugh Jackman has Wolverine. Robert Downey Jr has Iron Man. Aaron Eckhart has Nick Naylor.
-
after watching this movie I wanted to be a lobbyist for about an hour
-
This is just a VERY well acted movie. It's Aaron Eckhart in one of his finest performances and JK Simmons always brings his A-game no matter the role.
-
When I look at Aaron Eckhart, I only see half his face.
-
This man is absolutely genius for opening the dialogue so that he could control the narrative and then flip it on its head
-
Damn, thats a good intro for a character. This movie is criminally underrated.
-
"I've got to call the captain to see if this is gonna fly. Get your ass back to D.C. and get me pictures of Spider-Man!!!"
-
Two things about this scene. 1: "I'm that guy...on crack." Given the subject matter, I can't help but wonder about the choice of a very addictive and very ILLEGAL drug in that sentence. 2: The way he played that audience was incredible. In just a few sentences, he presents himself as occupying the moral high ground and the other people as hypocrites. He makes no attempt to try to defend tobacco, he instead employs some verbal misdirection to take the audience's attention off the fact of who he works for and what their product does.

"$50 MILLION DOLLARS!!?? Who you think you got Chelsea Clinton?" -Detective Carter

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The best satirical dark comedy I ever saw.
-
In the book it took place on Oprah's show, during the backstage before going onstage Oprah asked him Why he does this for a living. His simple remark was "Population Control"
-
I heard some J Jonah Jameson in that voice. "WHAT'RE YOU WAITIN FOR? CHINESE NEW YEAR?"
-
The way they dubbed machinegun blasting over his speech was genious. His mouth was a weapon itself.
-
The guy tried to respond but they took a short break. It's the reason why long-form podcasts exists.
-
"He came from the vending machine world, that made him tough"
-
I love that line, “Remember that guy who could pick up any girl? Well, I’m him-on crack!”
-
Ironically, not one person is seen smoking in this movie… just let that sink in for a second
-
This movie is so subtly hilarious.
-
He came from the vending machine world, this made him tough lmfao
-
OMG i Can't believe it never dawned on me til now, but BR's name is a reference to Battle Royale. that shot with the crossed out photograph confirms it.
