Reeves desperate to escape smoking 'prison'

Keanu Reeves is desperately trying to kick the smoking habit he picked up on a movie set 14 years ago.

Reeves never touched a cigarette until he stepped onset to play a smoker in 1996 movie 'Feeling Minnesota', and he has been hooked since.

The 44-year-old says: "It was an outcome of having to smoke on a film. I got hooked making a film, 'Feeling Minnesota'. I didn't start smoking until I was 30. Now I'm just in prison."
