Carey smokes throughout the film and Rosamund smokes in most of her scenes, sometimes with a holder. Cara, who plays Carey's mother, smokes in two scenes, but mainly holds with a single drag in the second scene. The quantity of smoking probably outshines the quality, but overall the quality isn't bad either. The women are all attractive and look good smoking and the movie, no doubt, accurately depicts smoking in London during the early 1960s with foreground and background smoking throughout. There is also an interesting mother-daughter smoking dynamic going on. In a charming early scene, before we know Carey's character smokes, Peter Sarsguaard offers her a cigarette as he gives her a ride home, which she declines, but only because they are nearing her house (she obviously doesn't want her parents to see her smoking). In a later scene Carey comes home to find that her parents are being wooed by Peter, much the way she has been, and her mother is smoking a cigarette and only seems to smoke when Peter is around. A scene toward the end of the film finds Carey and her parents together in Peter's car as Peter pumps gas. Carey, who smokes regularly in every social circle she finds herself in but never in front of her parents, reaches into the glove box and pulls out a pack of cigarettes, intending to smoke despite the fact her parents are in the back seat, but discovers the pack is empty. |
