Spacek began her professional acting career in the early 1970s, making her debut as an extra in Andy Warhol's Women in Revolt (1971). Her breakout role came with Terrence Malick's influential crime film Badlands (1973), which earned her a nomination for the British Academy Film Award for Most Promising Newcomer to Leading Film Roles. She rose to international prominence with her portrayal of Carrie White in Brian De Palma's horror film Carrie (1976), for which she received her first nomination for the Academy Award for Best Actress. After appearing in the acclaimed films Welcome to L.A.

Smokes Salem Lights in a couple of scenes. |
3 Women
|
smokingsides
Lot's of smoking in this film. Spacek smokes in 3 scenes, and Duvall smokes in probably 8 or 9. One good scene with Spacek, and several good close-ups of Duvall. |
A Home at the End of the World
|
smokingsides
Joints by both [Spacek, Wright]. Sissy has several scenes, inhaling deeply on small 'joints', visible exhales. [Wright] Only one disappointing scene. |
Badlands
|
smokingsides
Spacek smokes extremely well in a number of scenes, with deep inhales and well-shot exhales, all utilizing unfiltered cigarettes. Impressive and different, and Spacek at her relative cutest |
Get Low
|
smokingsides
Cigarette in an ashtray as she sits at a desk but she doesn't smoke it |
In the Bedroom
|
smokingsides
Tomei holds and takes at least two nice drags from an unidentifiable all-white cigarette while sitting on a lounge chair and having a conversation with her boyfriend. Spacek begins smoking Marlboro Reds following a death: she is seen holding and/or puffing in multiple scenes. There is also a scene inside a store where she asks the checkout clerk for a pack of Marlboro Lights. The Tomei scene is moderately hot, in a casual sort of way. The Spacek smoking scenes are psychologically intense (in part, but not entirely, due to the cigarettes). |
JFK
|
smokingsides
[Spacek] Only one drag (or was it light up) scene. A few background scenes with other women. |
Last Call
|
smokingsides
Excellent Salem Lights smoking scenes. They're not many, but they're really well filmed. |
|
smokingsides
Radford lights up once with a match but the director cuts away before you see anything. She attempts to light up again but fails. Spacek only holds in one scene. |
The Help
|
smokingsides
Pretty much all of the women smoke in this movie. Multiple scenes throughout. Emma Stone has several holding scenes and eventually has inhales and exhales towards the last third of the movie. It's a period piece, so all the women smoke and do it elegantly. Definitely worth watching! |
The Straight Story
|
smokingsides
Early on, she is seen extracting a cigarette from a pack, lighting it with a lighter, exhaling, and then taking another puff. About halfway through, she is seen taking several puffs on an already-lit cigarette while talking on the phone. |
