Watching a film is like taking a one to two-hour break from reality (three hours if you decide to watch 'Avatar: The Way of the Water').

Even if it is a film based on real-life, the actors are still portraying a certain character, some locations don't really exist, and even the substances, especially the illegal ones, aren't real.

According to Robbie, the cigarettes are actually herbal cigarettes that contain no nicotine, but still smell and taste horrible.
The "cocaine" can be one of a few things though and it depends on the scene. If the actor has to ingest it, then it's vitamin B powder, which Robbie also admits is still not nice, or if they are not ingesting it, they tend to use icing sugar or ground-up baby laxative.
