"There was a scene where she smoked in a bar that was unbelieveable. They backlit her and she nose-exhaled smoke continuously for many many breaths. It was amazing to watch"
"15 smoking scenes for Lupino, the highlight being a thick four-part nasal exhale lit from behind. George tries to puff while singing, eventually grinding her cigarette out on the floor. Maricle performs a nice natural exhale."
