Accepts a 'joint' with excitement and inhales with what looks like experience, but it's pretty dark and the camera pans away just a bit too soon. As a result, you have to settle for intuitive faith in (rather than absolute proof of) the existence of her exhale. |

Walsh's character doesn't seem to smoke at all, until near the end when she's upset and depressed and takes a proffered cigarette from a male companion. She handles it a bit awkwardly at first, but dangles and accepts a light like she's done it before, although maybe it's been years since she quit. She opens her eyes wide as she inhales deeply, as she remembers, one imagines, the old kick. Then a long, thick exhale (good illumination, outdoors at night). Some extended holding and another long exhale follow. In Conroy's one scene, she takes a cig from her pack on the kitchen table, but goes to the back door to smoke it. You never really see much, although the camera cuts to her once as she takes a deep inhale, then away before the exhale. |
