Hey movie buffs!

My 15 year old asked for examples of movies where the "cool" people smoke.
I thought of Casablanca, but it turns out he hasn't seen it.
And Cowboy Bebop, but that was rejected as "too nerdy". I assume too nerdy to admit he used to like it.

What movie is recent enough that he and his classmates would be likely to have seen it, and old enough that they still allowed smoking, and for smoking to be cool?

Boondock Saints? I usually assume that most geeks have seen this movie. I think it's one of the best films ever, even though it starts a bit slow. A 15 y/o is likely old enough to see it.

Basically, it's about 2 Irish guys who do vigilante killings in Boston and has Willem Dafoe as a wonderfully arrogant FBI agent.

If you watch it, I'd love to hear what you think of it.
