Classic Movies that partake in Snuff; Snuff Bottle Comnection

@toffeenose Nice! It makes more sense that way… :slight_smile:

Pinch to brust!! This video video brings together some clips of films where people use snuff and it has a part set in a store that sells snuff, handkerchiefs and snuff boxes, there is also a part concerning a snuff factory: http://www.britishpathe.com/video/out-takes-cuts-from-cp-475-reel-1-of-2-snuff/query/snuff Good vision!

Mentioned half a million addicted to snuff in England at that time

And another vintage short video found thanks to @OldBIgWagon http://bps.britishpathe.com/hls-vod/flash/00000000/00086000/00086445.mp4.m3u8

The Mark of Zorro with Tyrone Powers Some of the other early Zorro movies may also have Zorro partaking of a pinch when he is in his Fop mode (Don Diego.)

I’m not positive but it looked like someone used snuff in the movie Die hard with Bruce Willis. The first movie in the nakatome towers (or however you spell it). It was a minute or two after Bruce tosses the c4 down the elevator shaft. They then cut to a scene with his wife. The Guy right next to his wife puts his hand up to his nose and takes two deep sniffs. I just watched it on TV and don’t have the capability to rewind. I also don’t have the movie on DVD. It might take me a little while to confirm but if someone else can that would be great

If it’s the scene I’m thinking of, the actor’s using a different nasal substance…

@miamimark thanks that actually makes more sense. Its been a long time since I watched it and it wasn’t on a big movie channel so they had it edited and now that you mention it I’m sure they cut out some of the drug use. It sure looked like it tho. They didn’t show where his hand went but he brought what looked like a pinch or boxcar method up to his nose and took a sniff in each nostril. Sorry for the misleading post guys.

technicaly it’s a type of snuff. Just not the type most of us here are into.

Yeah, that character was a big time cokehead, and goes through withdrawal during the building’s takeover. The bad guys got him helping them by supplying him some. I guess you have to read between the lines to get that, because its done with half-cut scenes and suggestion, mostly a lot of sniffling. At least that’s what I remember, but I haven’t seen that film in like 20 years…

S1:E11 of The Finder “The Inheritance”. The young “gypsy” girl says “and this is called snuff, it’s not like kill, but old dudes used to sniff it in like Caveman times.”. As she holds up a black tub of American snuff. About 23 minutes in. It’s on Netflix.

And at 36 minutes in the snuff gets blown in one of the bad guy’s face.

That proves it. If Sean Connery does snuff, then this is the manliest hobby besides bear wrestling lol.

Long John Silver takes snuff in the 1950’s Disney version of Treasure Island (good job Disney!) Magician Albert Vogler (Max von Sydow) and his elderly Grandmother both take snuff together in Ingmar Bergman’s The Magician.

The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly has a scene in the desert where Tuco finds some dead soldiers in a wagon. he scavenges their pockets and finds a snuff box and takes a pinch. one of my favorite clint movies.

Waterloo! The 1970 Classic. Ponsonby offers Uxbridge a pinch before they go into battle. Absolute classic movie scene. Mentioned here: http://snuffhouse.org/discussion/8437/a-great-snuff-quote-from-my-favourite-movie-of-course-waterloo

Rob Roy…One of the clan elders is sitting in a great hall during a sword match and takes a few sniffs. Great film.

@cloudyman I’m watching The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly right now and I just saw that part where the guy finds the snuff box on the dead soldiers and takes a pinch. It immediately made me think of this thread and I came to post it. I see that you have beat me to it though. It is a great movie isn’t it?

inglorious bastards has a few scenes where the main character (cant remember his name) takes a pinch out of a case it looks like its in pellet form which ive never heard of may just be the angle. and in the animated version of jim carry’s a christmas carol two business men are discussing scrooges death and one of them takes a pinch
