I saw that at a Drive-In in Apotos ,CA in 1993 when it was in its first run.. Maybe why I have a liking of it now..

I had to look up the plot to make sure I saw it - Victor Khomenko 13:51:05 04/07/11 (10)
Apparently it has not left a lasting impression. Was he good there?

  ... one of my favorite films, and one even appropriate for the Holidays that doesn't smack of tinsel. Ashley Judd does a fantastic white trash cameo in "Smoke".

  - Agreed, Smoke is one of Keitel's best, but I don't like Ashley Judd or Hurt for that matter - Jazz Inmate 10:00:12 04/11/11 (0)
    Others in Smoke were far better. This was one of the 4 Keitel films in the early 90s that helped reeastablish his career, along with The Piano, Reservoir Dogs and Bad Lieutenant.

  I think one of Connery's last decent appearances. He's a Nipophile anyway so he was in his element. Ray Wise plays his typical creep.. Like I said maybe the impression of the Big Screen at the drive-in has some influence in my recollection but Harvey has some funny lines as the as the ethically/socially compromised Cop. Good Tyco Drums sequence.
