Bright style + spicy allegory + handsome guy starring

It is undeniable that the title production + singing of this film made me watch it with great interest, and seeing the handsome guy on the stage made my index go wild~
Many people have learned from this film how to deal with people and how to play tricks, but I vaguely feel that the director also Putting this issue into a movie to enlarge it, that is: the right and wrong debate on an issue, the result is not important, the important thing is the process is a technique for expressing your point of view. Nick Naylor in the film is a man of great skill, blurring the public eye and shifting the focus. The whole film is filled with the "sophistication" style disdainful of high school political teachers.
Let us see: In the United States, it is no longer an era when the public said that the public is reasonable and the mother said that the mother is reasonable, nor is it an era of black, black and white, but an era full of skills and arguments, as long as you put forward new arguments, even if Ridiculous, as long as it can distract the public!
It's a bit sad, just like watching a debate competition, the result of a debate topic is not important, in fact, the winner is mainly to see whether its debating skills are better.
However, it is still very important for a handsome guy to lead the role. I was immediately attracted by the picture--it can be seen that it is impossible for a PR person to not be handsome. How could that senator's assistant, with a messy beard, be such a big deal? ! (Is this another metaphor given to us by the director?)

    This is the pioneering work of one of my favorite directors, Master Jason! A job that seems to be despised and not on the table is so talented that he performs it, it is really imaginative and fun!

    Smart, witty, and a little evil, I really have no resistance to this kind of movie with awesome lines; "I presumed anything said while i was inside you was privileged."

Thank You for Smoking quotes

  • Nick Naylor: [Narrating] Few people on this planet know what it is to be truly despised. Can you blame them? I earn a living fronting an organizing that kills one thousand two hundred human beings a day; twelve hundred people. We're talking two jumbo jet plane loads of men, women, and children. I mean there's Attila, Genghis, and me, Nick Naylor the face of cigarettes, the colonel sanders of nicotine. This is where I work, the Academy of Tobacco Studies. It was established by seven gentlemen you may recognize from C-Span. These guys realized quick if they were gonna claim cigarettes were not addictive they better have proof. This is the man they rely on, Erhardt Von Grupten Mundt. They found him in Germany. I won't go into the details. He's been testing the link between nicotine and lung cancer for thirty years, and hasn't found any conclusive results. The man's a genius, he could disprove gravity. Then we got our sharks. We draft them out of Ivy League law schools and give them timeshares and sports cars. It's just like a John Grisham novel. Well you know without all the espionage. Most importantly we got spin control. That's where I come in. I get paid to talk. I don't have an MD or law degree. I have a baccalaureate in kicking ass and taking names. You know that guy who can pick up any girl, I'm him on crack.

  • Polly Bailey: [in a restaurant, referring to Heather] You didn't tell her about us, did you?

    Nick Naylor: Who? Heather? No!... I mean, maybe in passing.

    Polly Bailey: In passing.

    Bobby Jay Bliss: Oh God, he fucked her. I tried to warn you...

    Polly Bailey: Hey, he didn't fuck her. You didn't fuck her, did you?

    [Nick doesn't answer]

    Polly Bailey: When?

    Bobby Jay Bliss: In passing.
