Silhouettes and Cigarettes is a 2008 independent film co-written, directed and starring Bobby Buccellato. The film tells the story of Robert Croston (played by Bobby Buccellato), a student filmmaker, womanizer, pill popper and alcoholic.

After discovering that he is suffering from heart failure and faces certain death if he does not change his ways, Croston forgoes all medical advice and decides to live out his last year as per usual. As the year progresses, Croston’s on-again, off-again girlfriend, Riley (played by Erica DeCarlo), becomes pregnant with his child. Also during this year, his best friend, Joe (played by Jonathan Rodriguez) dies in a car accident. He then starts an affair with his dead friend’s girlfriend, Amanda (played by Ashley Miller) which results in her pregnancy with Croston’s second child. This knowledge in hand, Croston sets out to capture the final year of his life on film so that his children will know their father.
