Sex scenes make sense, says Jennifer Connelly
By ANITuesday, September 22, 2009
NEW DELHI - Jennifer Connelly believes that sex scenes are mostly uncomfortable, but insists they’re nowhere near as bad as everyone make them out to be.
She told Britain’s Guardian newspaper: “Sex scenes are incredibly awkward, they’re always uncomfortable. I think they’re overused and people get very flustered by them.
“People don’t know how to discuss them and there’s a lot of embarrassment.”
However, the ‘Hulk’ star insists that sometimes the scenes are logical, The China Daily reports.
“It’s not my favourite thing to do, but there are circumstances in which they make sense. I just wish people wouldn’t dance around them,” she said.
Jennifer stars alongside her real-husband Paul Bettany, who plays evolutionary biologist Charles Darwin, in new film ‘Creation.’
She said: “We had heard a lot of opinions about it but I wanted to work with Paul because he’s a very good actor and I thought it would be a privilege to work with him.
“There are certain scenarios people don’t want to see, like a married couple having sex in a film.
“But I don’t want to see a sexy movie about Charles Darwin, and the filmmakers didn’t want to make that film, so it seemed like there was nothing about our personal pairing that could take away from the film.” (ANI)
