Thanks SO MUCH for this It was good help, and I need help again - here its a review of the movie Smoke (Paul Auster) but only in 200 words: If anyone would just take a small look I appriciate it.

The story evolves around the Writer Paul Benjamin, who lost his wife and therefore gave up writing. He is the main character of this movie.
First we meet Thomas Jefferson Cole that calls himself Rashid, who saves Paul from being run over. Thomas is on the run from a couple of criminal kids from which he took some money so now he hides in Paul’s apartment. He also just found his dad (Cyrus), who bought a gas station. Thomas gets a job here, to get to know his father.
We also meet Auggie, a storeowner with a passion for taking photographs. Auggie helped Paul with his sorrow of losing his wife, and they become close. Thomas then gets a job at the store Auggie has, and accidental ruins his illegal cigars. Thomas hands the money to Auggie, seeing as it was Thomas who made the mistake. In the meantime Auggie has some trouble with a former lover (Ruby), she tells him that she had his daughter, and even though it turns out not to be his, he gives her the money. In the end Auggie tells the story about how he got his camera.
