Wow: That’s a lotta cigarettes. Though when you remember this 1999 comedy stars smoker royalty Ben Affleck and Courtney Love, 200 doesn’t actually appear to be that many tobacco sticks. Hyperreal invites all cool kids to light up – well, metaphorically – for this NYE romp that criss-crosses stories of twentysomethings on the edge of the new millennium. This movie is total Carys-bait, aka a primo pick for newly crowned Music & Culture Editor Carys Anderson, which actually means that any and all hip young persons would be fools to skip out on it. – James Scott Read a full review of Two Hundred Cigarettes.
