If you can appreciate the creativity, music and production of these old cigarette ads, these people really knew what they were doing and their level of quality has gone out of this world
Smokin' Fun fact! For all of the jabs given to Americans for not using the metric system, American cigarettes have ALWAYS been sold by metric length! 70mm, (Regular) 84mm, (King) 100mm (100s), 120mm (120s). Also, an American Company (Kodak) came up with the 8mm, 16mm and 35mm standards for photographic film stock. So, us yanks are fond of millimeters!
beyond repulsive i used to feel ill watching my parents and their friends smoking. Pure propaganda advertising and shame on all these stars who knew better doing this. They al said they didn't know which is a lie. My victorian grandfather was livid with his wife and daughters addiction. An old 40s war movie with van johnson on aircraft carrier in pacific theater made in early 40s in black and white went into canteen and asked the sailor manning the counter to give a "pack of cancer sticks" give me a break
I’m counting the actors that died due to complications of smoking and those who used smoking to keep off the pounds. Not very glamorous, is it? Never wanted to myself because I had enough problems breathing as it was and the people who I knew seemed dirty and smelly that left on my clothes for days. Ewwww.
Well that’s true and I agree as well, but the content of the video is true to its description so it was your choice to watch and their choice to smoke. Also note that while some did die relatively young, some lived to a ripe old age and many quit in the course of their lifetime Cheers
@@tomdavis3038 Betty Grable, Clark Gable, the list goes On and ON of Actors who Died young from smoking. And, YES, Kirk Douglas lived past 100, and he Used to smoke 3 ppd. He quit through willpower, however, when he was quite Young. Bogart Died of Esophageal Cancer. His vices were Hard Liquor and Tobacco. Sammy Davis Junior Died of the same diagnosis-Decades Later.
Hey Joe, have seen the movie "Affair In Trinidad"? It stars Glenn Ford and Rita Haworth. There is a scene in that film where she is in the dark and illuminated only when she draws on the cigarette she is smoking
Certainly bad for you. But in the interest of accuracy. Jennifer Aniston not dead, Winona Ryder not dead, Gwyneth Paltrow not dead, Keira Knightley not dead, Jane Fonda not dead, Tippi Hedren not dead, Jessica Lange not dead, Maxine Bahns not dead, Shelley Long not dead, Sissy Spacek not dead, Stefanie Powers not dead, Rachel Ward not dead, Steve Martin not dead, and Gina Gershon not dead.

Wouldn't it be Ironic (given the Tobacco AND Gun problems we have here) if there was a 9mm Width??
@@drpoundsign We don't have a Tobacco or Gun Problem here though.
I smoke Misty 120's ❤ but there used to be Misty 164's .. So Sexy ;)
Audie Murphy was broke but he refused to sell cigarettes or alcohol.
@account-manager you are thinking about Jerry Lee Lewis.
So he was dumb is what you're saying.
I started lighting up those Camels in the 1970's. Caught on to it quickly, pack a day smoker at 15. Marlboro Reds.
How are you doing now?

Dead. All DEAD. EMPHZEMA, HEART DISEASE, LUNG CANCER.
All of them were beautiful, and died much too young.

I love smokers so much ❤
I do as well
The Muriel song shouldn't be in this video because it was for cigars, none of which are shown here. It's all just cigarettes.
Can someone please catalog all the actors and actresses in this video?
Ах, как красиво курили девушки 60 лет назад!
As mulheres fumavam de forma sensual sem ser vulgares. Um abraço fraterno desde o Uruguai 🇺🇾. Deus lhe abençoe.

What are those numbers you supposedly looked up?
Hey Joe, a lot of these are not commercials but rather clips from old films and TV series.
the soundtrack is the medley; video is indeed old tv and film. Sometimes you just have to let art, "flow" over you. thanks for watching.
👍👍@@JoeRzodkiewicz
Smoking in movies was the ultimate commercial for the tobacco industry.
Smoking KILL
Looks silly now, huh?
Looks sexy actually.
All of a sudden I feel like smoking!
I got lung cancer just watching this!
Smoking wasn't just a social thing.. In film/tv it was a way to sexualize (Lips and other oral activities, etc) to get past the censors
Great vid! ❤

Yes. Did not have digital access to that scene. BTW, your channel is cool
Thanks for your answer and thank you for visiting my channel.@@JoeRzodkiewicz
Fantastic Video🚬💋
Lucille Ball's voice went down a couple of octaves because of smoking.
The majority of these actors died of either cancer, or a stroke, both due to tobacco Cigarette smoking.
Cough!
i love the way the actress from the golden era of hollywood dangle the cigarette at the corner of the mouth!!!
Back then it was so chic to be a cigarette smoker

It's BOGART (Literally.)
Who is the woman at 4 minutes with the pearl necklace?
Gina Lollobrigida?
“As cool and as clean as a breath of fresh air!”
Twenty cancer nails in each pack.
Tippi Hedren ❤ and Still Alive at 94!
Lauren Bacall ❤ RIP just shy of 90
So many Beautiful women in your vid.. many I recognize, many I don't..
This year marks the centennial of the birth of Lauren Bacall.
Always loved how women close their eyes when they are taking a light.
"There's nothing like a smoke to solve SFA"
What's SFA?

ALL DEAD.😅

@@cspaikido I used to watch Stefanie Powers and Robert Wagner on hart to Hart
Not all are dead and some died of natural causes. Some people can control their smoking and drinking.
Wrong!
