Also people light up a cigarette, take two puffs, and flick it off in the distance. In the real world people take that thing down to the filter.

And the loud crackling noise made when they take a drag on the cigarette. This started several years ago and was sort of cool. It's a horribly overused cliche now.

The screaming of a hawk in the background to let you know they are away from civilization. This happens far more often on TV shows than in real life.

Nobody actually eats their food. People get up and walk away from food they haven't touched all the time in movies.

Yep. Of the probably thousands of scenes with a character smoking, I think I could probably count on one hand the amount of times I've seen someone still holding a cig more than 30 seconds after lighting it

Do people still smoke in movies?

I thought Rob Reiner had outlawed it.
