    Schwarzenegger in Running Man and Predator. And he smokes regulary.
    (the garbage truck driver in the beginning of Terminator)

    Micheal Duglas in Wall Street. "Davidoff, his favorite, and very hard to get"

    A few films with Mel Gibson, just can't think of them.

    Tom Cruise and Eric Stoltz in "Jerry McGuire"

    Those are a few that I can think of.

    I can't think of too many women smoking cigars in films or TV shows, but I do remember an old Seinfeld episode where Elaine was smoking a large cigar. I also have vague memories of other women smoking cigars in movies, like one of the Bond girls in Golden Eye. Hopefully, we start seeing more cigar-smoking ladies in movies. It might reduce the number of snide looks I get when I smoke one..lol.

    I never watched Seinfeld much, but I do remember Kramer was a big cigar smoker, and it came up a few times, but not too negatively it seemed.

    BTW

    I just watched Be Cool last night. Steven Tyler from Aerosmith and John Travolta smoke cigars in the movie. The Rock plays a gay country western singer, and the video of him singing "You ain't woman enough to take my man" is one of the most disturbing images I've seen in a while.

    Intelectuals also smoke cigars. Look at Sigmund Freud or Sherlock Holmes. (The original prefered a cigar to a pipe!)

    Cuban Cigar Lifestyle/Churchill

    Indeed, among Churchill's favorite brands were Romeo y Julieta and the now-defunct La Aroma de Cuba. He had a number of regular suppliers of Cuban cigars who kept him well-stocked with Cuban cigars throughout his life, even during the prohibitive years of war. And at Chartwell Manor, his country home in Kent, Churchill stocked between 3,000 and 4,000 Cuban cigars in a room adjacent to his study. The Cuban cigars were kept in boxes on shelves with labels reading "large" and "small," "wrapped" and "naked" to distinguish the Cuban cigars' sizes and whether or not they were wrapped in cellophane. Not surprisingly, Churchill spent a great deal of money on his Cuban cigars over the years. As one of his valets, Roy Howells, wrote in his book, Simply Churchill, "It took me a little while to get used to the fact that in two days his Cuban cigar consumption was the equivalent of my weekly salary."
