Basically for my paper i want to examine how we use recreational drugs to fuel our image of cool. Mostly I want to examine cigarette and alcohol use. For this paper I want to use examples like Humphrey Bogart, and John Wayne. Specifically how'd they use cigarettes as a tool for projecting their image and how does that translate into modern society.
Argument 1: The effectiveness of tobacco advertising particularly from the 1940s through the 1990s. How did this advertising work so well despite the onslaught of health warnings and studies?

Argument 2: The use of movies as a merchant of tobacco.
Argument 3: Used as an object of insecurities
