This video features Lynn, Nicole, Sassy (a.k.a. Shawna), Sarah and Karen. The girls smoke a wide variety of brands ranging from VS menthol lights, through Marlboro light 100s, red 100s, Camel non-filters and Pall Mall reds. They use lighters for lightups and you get to see mouth exhales, multiple pumps, french inhales, snaps, nose exhales, dangling, a few rings, talking exhales and residual exhales.
The DVD features a chapter menu with thumbnails of the 11 scenes all of which are filmed indoors in the same setting as the Sarah & Karen video, i.e. with the girls either seated on the floor or in a chair. All but one of the scenes features one girl with the others talking to her from behind the scenes. The final scene is a duet with Lynn and Nicole. The scenes are shot from a fixed camera angle with some panning and much zooming. The camera work is a bit amateurish and the camera makes some distracting clicking noises as it is panned. Camera angles vary from front-on to half and full profile. There is very little cutting of the scenes with all the girls smoking fairly continuously with few pauses between drags.
In the scenes the girls talk a little about their smoking history, describe the experience of smoking each cigarette and otherwise chat with each other about their lives. The audio quality is adequate to capture the dialog and some smoking sounds.
Lynn's tough girl act doesn't greatly appeal to me and nor does her smoking style which is very deliberate. Lynn's friend Nicole has a more feminine style, with pleasant small snap inhales. Both are heavy smokers and have no trouble with non-filtered Camels. At the end of each of Lynn and Nicole's scenes they blow a smoky kiss at the camera. This would have been more appealing if it hadn't been for all the tough-girl talk that came before.
Shawna does not appeal to me looks-wise, however her smoking style is natural and effective with small tight snap inhales.
Karen is a pretty girl who does nice nose exhales. Unfortunately the lighting in her scenes is not the best for showing up the smoke.
Sarah, now a mother of a 7-month old baby boy is the star of this show for me. Unlike most of the other girls who wear very casual/grungy outfits, Sarah wears sexy tops that show off her voluptuous curves and ample cleavage. She also has a pleasant personality and a nice girlish voice for a 2-pack per day Marlboro reds smoker. She gamely smokes a non-filtered Pall Mall red (apparently a first) in one of her scenes and does well up to the end where she almost chokes!
The lighting in this video is not the best, apart from Shawna's scenes, so the smoke doesn't show up as well as it could which is a shame, since all these girls are excellent smokers.
This video should appeal to those who like variety and to fans of any of these models, though I felt the Sarah And Karen video was better. The three non-filter scenes might or might not appeal to fans of those since although the girls handle them well enough, they obviously are not experienced at smoking them and do not enjoy the tobacco coming off on their tongues.
