Wayne Wang directed a movie called Smoke in 1975, and in the named films (Fame and Lovers and Other Stangers) Anne Meara of (Stiller and Meara fame as well as the mom of Ben Stiller) had good size roles in both those films.
Smoke and Meara's is a pun on Smoke and Mirrors - which accounts for the reference of it not being of any real substance.
Never before have so few traveled so far for so little.
