The Art of Giving A Good Screen Kiss (Off?)




... well, that would work as a goodbye 
--- but it implies too many happy returns! 

Maybe a better, more effective way to KISS OFF
(as in ''kiss them goodbye'' figuratively, as you push them off of you!)
is the way Dame Diana Rigg famously went about it,
prior to all of her scenes with one-time James Bond
George Lazenby, in 1969's
On Her Majesty's Secret Service - 
she ate garlic!


But even when there is no garlic involved... 
An onscreen kiss is a technical, cold thing, verily --- 
no room for anything else there! 


It is the same thing onstage...! 
Or on LIVE TELEVISION... 


Now a KISS OFF can also be... all this:












... ultimately, 
it is all make-believe! 


As Sam sang it: 
''you must remember this; 
a kiss is just a kiss!''
