April 6, 201511 yr I watched these three episodes this weekend. I thought they were really good. Enjoyed them all with the exception of the woman smoking through her neck in episode 3. That's turned my stomach - I wish I could un-see that!!
April 7, 201511 yr Edit. Right now, I know it will only upset me. I looked at the first minute. I don't think I have seen them. I know I will ... If, I am getting it right, Big Tobacco is now targeting 3rd World countries, with gusto. May they all rot in their own filth. *Kudos, to the people standing up to them.
March 8, 201610 yr For those who have not seen this... Talk about a eye opener... A wake up call for sure...
March 8, 201610 yr Shocking to watch and yet my generation kind of knew and still they continue to deny it. Crazy.
