[Blair] [0:55] parking lot, at night: good medium-close shot of Blair lighting a cork-tipped 100, plus a few other dangle and/or drag shots; [0:59] in a bar: Blair dangles her unlit cork-tipped 100 until you give up hope that she will ever light it, but then she does (first second of lightup is off-screen); [1:03] nighttime in a cemetery: mostly just exhales, but occasionally the editor leaves in the tail end of Blair's drag |
Kill Me Later

[Blair] smokes throughout the movie with 5 light ups, 20 drags, 9 dangles and 7 exhales. The opening scene has her hanging upside down with 2 cigs, she drags from one, then the other and good cutting together shows it about 5 times. She then crawls through the window dangling one in her mouth, lights another and drags about 3 times. She then goes into the bathroom, dangles another cig, drags and holds in the bath before an awesome close up of another light up and 2 drags and a great exhale before the shower comes on and there`s a slight exhale through the water. There are scenes of her in front of a mirror with a dangle, drag, exhale, 2 scenes outside with drags, a light up and an exhale, and there is a scene in a car where she lights up drags 3 times and exhales. There`s another scene in her apartment with a drag and standing in a doorway dangling with a drag. Her last smoking scene is on a bridge at night with a good light up 2 drags and some more great cutting shows this about 4 times. Selma is good at smoking and looks very IRL. |
