| L.A. Without a Map (1998) | Julie Delpy "Some nice smoking ... in this film. A few scenes in the middle of the movie. Inhales deeply, but the exhale is a bit obscured." "color me unimpressed. Three scenes from Delpy. In the first two (in the restaurant where she's a waitress and in a moving convertible) the smoking is very briefly glimpsed and she may not be inhaling. In the third, seated at a bar, she pops several excellent smoke rings while in the background of a shot, but the camera is so far away you can barely tell it's her. Finally it cuts to a closer shot, and we get the barest glimpse of a well-lit exhale from behind and then one mediocre drag/exhale from the front. Bummer." "For someone who is, or was, an IRL smoker, I am very disappointed in Julie's smoking in this film. She clearly does not inhale. I would have expected better from her."
