Lots of information, lots of fun, kind to the audience

A good script is always a good foundation for a fine movie. "Thank You for Smoking" is very refreshing, it is a work with IQ and standard. Just kinda.

I was overjoyed after reading the beginning. The massive amount of information, in just a few minutes, satirized the American political culture up and down. It is my favorite type! Easy and funny, no lack of deep meaning, but not show off, not pretentious. As long as it stays to the end, it will be a boutique, I think.
The ending... even better than I thought. (It may also be that my imagination is limited)

I have been wondering, how can I learn something and recommend others to watch this film? The means are high, just like Nick Neller in the movie, no matter what kind of criticism they face, they can also promote people to choose to smoke. His specialty is that in the face of any situation, he can find a way to maintain his advantage.
The baseline of this expertise lies in - - - speaking skills.

"Thank you for smoking" is actually about the charm of dealing with people. Nick Neller can play a role model.
In this society, in many cases, right and wrong, moral conscience is not judged by any standard, but depends on the specific moment, specific occasion, who seems to have the upper hand, and who seems to be right.
This is purely a matter of skill. The more who has mastery, the more likely he is to be "right". There is a profession born specifically for this——lawyer. This is why Nick Neller likes to draw a metaphor for himself. Spreading to the industry of tobacco "agents" (more broadly, to guns, liquor, and politicians, in fact, all industries are the same), Nick Neller adopts the psychology of wandering between various standards Tactics, he achieved his three-inch tongue. He understands business, media, politics, the masses, and even the whole society better than others, so he is more suitable for this profession than others. No matter when and where, you can always be invincible, even if you know your position is wrong.

At the end of "Thank you for smoking", there is a kind of compromise. I believe no one will take it to heart. The things that should be talked about are in the middle of the film. People who like to interact with many people can learn a lot from it.

    Joan Lunden: Robin Williger. He is a 15 year old freshman from Racine, Wisconsin. He enjoys studying history; he's on the debate team. Robin's future looked very, very bright. But recently he was diagnosed with cancer, a very tough kind of cancer. Robin tells me he has quit smoking, though, and he no longer thinks that cigarettes are "cool."
