Smoke

Where there's Smoke...there's laughter! New Yorkers' lives change forever when a Brooklyn cigar store manager, Auggie (Harvey Keitel), befriends them. Among them is a writer…who can’t write (William Hurt), a reluctant father…hiding from his past (Forest Whitaker), a streetwise teen…with an unusual identity crisis (Harold Perrineau), and Auggie’s long-lost ex-girlfriend (Stockard Channing)…who returns with some surprising news! Full of offbeat humor, unexpected wit, and a star-studded cast also featuring Giancarlo Esposito and Ashley Judd, Smoke was directed by trailblazing filmmaker Wayne Wang (Chan Is Missing, Blue in the Face), and won the Independent Spirit Award for Best First Screenplay by acclaimed novelist Paul Auster (Lulu on the Bridge). 2K Film Restoration by ZAP Zoetrope Aubry Productions - San Francisco.
