Profile Picture

smokingsides
0:28 - Closeups as she accepts a cig from a man and awaits a light. He takes it from her, strikes it on the box to light it, and places it between her lips. Starts one drag. 1:02 - She lights one of these self-striking cigs for a man and one for herself. She does three rather languorous drag-exhales, the last of which is in closeup, and fills the screen with smoke.

Shivers

smokes a little. She takes some drags and a few exhales, but nothing more beyond that

Sorella di Satana, La

Two scenes, both early. Steele holds cig at outdoor table. In hotel room, nice close shot of Barbara as she lights up in her nightgown. Brief cutaway during it, but she speaks with cigarette in her mouth, which is always a nice little bonus. One subsequent exhale.
