Blue in the Face is a sort-of sequel to the film Smoke. Smoke got rave reviews and awards, while this one did not so much. I however like this film more because it is more free-form, and I thoroughly enjoy just about every scene in it. Between the snippets of Lou Reed talking about many things, Interesting cameos from notable people, and just the overall early-90's-independent-film-THING that this has, I can watch this flick over and over. Director Wayne Wang has really taken a dive as far as the quality of films he has made since this, unfortunately.
