BEN AFFLECK was desperate to quit smoking after playing a chain-smoking bail bondsman in the new film SMOKIN’ ACES.

The 34-year-old was a regular smoker and had to increase his habit dramatically while making the movie.

He explains, “The whole week that I shot, I smoked, like, five packs a day.

“By the time the movie was over, I was so sick of smoking, I just didn’t want to do it anymore, and I quit.

“I have this celluloid record of the last time I smoked!”
