Even my parents are so cute, and they deal with every movie of mine excellently. They check with me ever so casually by asking 'Now how much of nudity are we going to see in this one?'
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I avoided nudity unless a film couldn't be told without those scenes. If you look at my films, few of them have that element, yet nudity and male fantasies have become emblematic of my work.
I've done nudity in lots of things before. It's something that's never particularly bothered me.
I've never had a problem with nudity, but I don't put it out there without a reason.
I honestly don't understand the big fuss made over nudity and sex in films. It's silly.
With scripts I've always looked at them and thought about kids, you know? Thought about the world and the impact... I won't do nudity and I never felt comfortable with that whole idea or things with huge sexual content - not my thing.
If parents don't like some of the stuff I do then they shouldn't let their kids watch me.
What bothers me is our culture's obsession with nudity. It shouldn't be a big deal, but it is. I think this overemphasis with nudity makes actors nervous. There's the worry about seeing one's body dissected, misrepresented, played and replayed on the Internet.
Young actors often don't think of the consequences of doing nudity or sex scenes. They want the role so badly that they agree to be exploited, and then end up embarrassing family, friends, and even strangers.
I posed nude to show my parents they couldn't dictate to me any more - that I control my life.
My parents don't really watch movies at all.
