Carol smokes cigarettes not only because it was commonly accepted in the times the movie is set, but also because the physical act of smoking is used as symbolism and as unspoken language. Carol is shown smoking when she is confident or flirtatious, and when she is anxious or constrained. However, Carol did not smoke on the road trip with Therese; neither in the car, nor in restaurants, motel and hotel rooms. Not smoking in these scenes conveyed that she felt happiness. You don't see Carol smoke again until she's back home and striving for joint custody of her daughter (scene with Abby), and when she meets Therese in the Ritz Tower Hotel restaurant.Therese is shown smoking cigarettes when she is self-conscious, such as her first lunch date with Carol, or anxious during their drive back to the Drake Hotel in Chicago after their romance is found out. She was also shown holding a lit cigarette while picking through her box of photographs.
