BEST SMOKING SITES BLOG

One of the most glamorous and gorgeous smoking screen queens of yesteryear was, in my opinion, Joan Crawford. My attraction to smoke in black and white has been mentioned here before, and most of Joan's movies were, of course, filmed in black & white. At least the movies made during her hey day. You can find some great smoking scenes from Joan in movies as early as the 30's such as Rain (where she does a very sensual dangle), and Grand Hotel . Another great movie for Joan smoking is Humoresque, which features a scene where Joan has to choose from several matches being offered to her. My all time favorite Joan smoking movie/scene, however, comes from the movie The Damned Don't Cry , in which she does a talking exhale-pause talking exhale-residual exhale that has  to be the most incredible smoking exhale ever captured on  film. (Hedy Lamarr's 20 second exhale-yes, I timed it once-in Ecstasy  is unbelievable, but you have to think that is the product of two sepeately shot takes being spliced together ). And, the thing about Joan was that she was sexy on screen, especially in an era when that had to be a lot more understated than it does today, and always managed to work her smoking into her sesuality. From what I understand she was a serious smoker in real life, something that certainly comes through on film. Of course, those of you smoking fans out there who just like serious female smoking will have to realize that, at best, in the movies I've mentioned you will see a total of  Joan smoking the equivalent of one cigarette. Those of you who cut your teeth on smoking fetish videos and Jones for what you see  on internet sites aren't going to get that quantity. But, the quality moe than makes up for it. Plus, of course, these movies are pretty good. It will help if you like old movies and don't mind a plot to go with your smoking. I don't know if any or all of these movies are out on DVD, but the place to find that out would be the Internet Movie Database.  If any of these are out on DVD, especially, do yourself a favor and pick one up.
