Ha! BTW, shouldn't Season 6 be here soon? I'm getting anxious.Thought he was going to say he didn’t buy the Manchester accent Murphy is going for…
Excessive smoking in movies and TV…
- Thread starter Got GSPs
- Start date
See it’s not just me. The star of the show thinks it’s a large number…
Spoiler: People are going to be smoking and drinking all over the place.
Maybe because he has to smoke (but not inhale them), not because it is not authentic to the period.
“People did smoke all day [back then] and it just became a Tommy thing,” Cillian explained of his character’s habit.
Nice! Season 4 was one of my favorites. Season 5 though - the best villain yet.
Does anyone believe the BS they see on TV and movies?
Oh yeah….The Brits use the C word like we use jerk or a$$hole. It’s nonstop.I love the f bombs, and especially love the brits use of the C word
Personified, in this case, by a horrible cunt:
Snatch (2001) clip with quote Personified, in this case, by a horrible ****: Yarn is the best search for video clips by quote. Find the exact moment in a TV show, movie, or music video you want to share. Easily move forward or backward to get to the perfect clip.getyarn.io
It’s like urban art. I dig it the most. It can’t possibly be the same as our C, can it?
I prefer their skillful use of "tw*t".
I love Peaky Blinders. Yes I wondered about that much smoking. But as said earlier times were different. Thankfully smoking has been taboo in public now.
Most WW2 vets did smoke as mentioned. My dad a Navy vet did not.
Yes they smoke heavily on Peaky Blinders. Have you never watched TCM? Check out movies from the 1930s, 40s 50s. TCM Is great too.
Also I was going to say use the close caption. I have grown used to depending on it for hard to follow dialog. I love using it for the 1930s Popeye cartoons with all the clever muttering Popeye uses and Bluto too.

I couldn't resist posting this....I see my favorite Lucky Strike in the display
Cigarettes bought from a hospital bed in the 1950s
Prior to the Surgeon General’s message connecting tobacco use to a variety of illnesses, the medical community did not consider smoking to be a bad. In fact, it was considered to soothe a worried person, suppress appetites, and generally be beneficial.Advertisement
As absurd and counter-productive as it may seem, hospital patients could purchase packs from their hospital beds during this time. They could even use them in their hospital rooms if they wanted to!

🌫well poo according to the web site the BBC only works in the UK, and the BBC on my cable is not the showing it either
Watched Succession and between jacking off, and language i would say smoking is of little concern to me. It's weak.
Funny seeing this thread today. I found myself watching War Games again over the weekend. Picked up on some things I never noticed before. Barry Corbin, who played the General(one of the main characters), keeps stuffing Red Man in his mouth frequently.
