Movies
Amateur
smokingsides
fantasy come true by Lownsohn. Isabelle looks quite inexperienced and does a lot of nervous smoking. Elina, on the other hand, looks fantastic and has a few nice inhales and exhales. She smokes with flair. But it's Parker who really steals the show, as she puts on a one-scene display of heavy smoking. The smoke is thick and her exhales exuberant. The only minus is the guy she's sitting next to keeps getting in the way! |
Broken English

French inhale and smokerings in one scene. Excellent! |

Posey: Exhale in the first scene, later a dangle and light-up, and holds in another scene ND. Then while alone in bed, a drag and exhale. In a party scene, holds a joint, ND. Posey and de Matteo hold in a long Paris restaurant scene together, each takes one drag. LaFont is one one long scene only, lights up, drags, holds several |
Flirt
smokingsides
0:04 - In a bathrobe, Posey lights a corktip cig with a match. Camera cuts away when she starts a drag. 0:25 - Wearing a mini, Pai dashes into a phone booth while dangling a cig. A couple drags follow. |

Lodeizen smokes countless times, with lots of visible smoke, and she has talk-exhales and snap inhales. Reuten lights up from a distance, but then there's a great shot of a snap inhale and blowing smoke in a guy's face. Pieters smokes in one scene, but she doesn't look IRL |
Personal Velocity: Three Portraits
smokingsides
A guy in a coffee shop asks Parker if she has a cigarette; she haughtily replies that she smoked a little in college but wasn't stupid enough to get addicted. Later she leaves, then returns and drops a freshly bought pack of American Spirits on the table in front of the guy. Next, cut to Parker, blowing an I-mean-perfect smoke ring at the guy and exclaiming delightedly, Oh, I can still do it! A bit later she has a post-coital drag and exhale, but the background isn't great for that one. Kyra has two scenes in an earlier episode of the film; one holding, one lighting with an exhale. |
The Event
smokingsides
Posey's first scene she has two extremely long drags on an all-white cigarette, but it's outdoors so her exhales are windblown. Posey's second scene is indoors, but shot from a distance and she has another extremely long drag with a visible exhale. Posey's third scene is the best with a profile shot of an inhale, her trademark french inhale and a visible exhale. |
The Misadventures of Margaret
smokingsides
Parker smokes in numerous scenes with her usual quality, including french inhales, decent exhales, and one trace of a talk-exhale. Brooke smokes with a holder in several scenes; unfortunately there's no good shot of her inhaling or exhaling; it's a disappointment. McGovern holds in several scenes, but no shots of her inhaling or exhaling either |
