Smoke is an American independent film released in 1995. It was produced by Bob and Harvey Weinstein and directed by Wayne Wang and Paul Auster (who also wrote the screenplay). Among others, it features Harvey Keitel, William Hurt, Victor Argo, Forest Whitaker, Ashley Judd, Stockard Channing and Harold Perrineau Jr. in the cast.
The film follows the lives of multiple characters, all of whom are connected by their patronage of a small Brooklyn tobacco shop managed by Auggie (Harvey Keitel).
The film was followed by Blue in the Face, a sequel of sorts that continues following a few of the characters and introduces several new ones.
