I certainly hope the study establishes a causal link. Because it could just as easily be that kids that are interested in trying smoking seek out movies where the characters heavily smoke - action movies in particular. Perhaps movies that depict smoking tend to be outside of the mainstream (foreign films?), and these kids are trying something new. In other words - they would have tried smoking even if they never watched these movies.
