Smokes in one scene, though no visible exhales, and it's not very sexy |

doesn't smoke at all the first 2/3 of the movie, but then she decides she does smoke. First scene she's in a beauty parlor and shares a cigarette having two inhales and two visible exhales, including the snap inhales where she sucks in a lot of smoke but you don't see any of it. Later she has an inhale or two, but it's all filmed from a moderate distance making it not so great. Also another minor female character has a good nose-mouth combo inhale in a church |
Home for the Holidays
|
smokingsides
stars Holly Hunter and Robert Downey Jr., playing sister and brother, indulge in cozy small talk while sharing a cigarette, puffing and swapping it. It's a nice, intimate -- and very empty -- scene because you have no idea what they're talking about. You become hypnotized by that cigarette going back and forth, back and forth, to the point of blocking out their dialogue. Earlier in the film, you notice that Anne Bancroft, playing their mother, does all of her initial scenes with a cigarette dangling off her lip, in both lighted and unlighted states. |
Little Black Book
|

[Hunter] Smokes in four or five scenes with very good light-ups with some fine exhales here and there. |
Living Out Loud
|

The Burning

[Bruce] She's shown in one close up taking a full drag on an Marlboro 100 cigarette before passing it to another girl out of frame. |
The Firm
|

There are seven smoking scenes in all, with two lightings. She lights up while driving her car, dangles a freshly-lit 120 from her lips, and builds up a long ash. |
Things You Can Tell Just by Looking at Her
|

Glenn Close smokes in just one scene in the first segment where she just lights up, takes a drag or two and just holds it. Holly Hunter smokes in a number of scenes in the second segment with some good shots of her holding, and exhaling in some exterior scenes. |
Thirteen
|
smokingsides
Some excellent smoking scenes in this film. Wood smokes throughout, with some cheek-hollowing drags and french inhales. Reed plays a teenager who learns to smoke in the film. Her sister tells her how to smoke. Her first few scenes are poor quality (in one scene she continues to light the cigarrette as she takes a drag and the whole thing is set alight). As the film goes on, Reed's smoking improves drastically. She takes one of the longest drags you'll ever see (lasting around 15 seconds). Definitely worth watching. |
