You don't even really get used to doing scenes where you have to kiss, or be particularly intimate, with another person who's not actually your lover in real life.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
It's always weird doing love scenes. And the thing is, you can't really photograph two people kissing naturally, because then you wouldn't be able to see anything.
Intimate scenes or a kiss is a very technical aspect of filmmaking. It is extremely mechanical.
As an audience member, if I go to a film, and I am watching two actors, and they're kissing, and it looks like they don't even want to be kissing, it just takes me out of the film.
It's people's worst fantasy to see their partner kissing someone else, even though it's a job and it's not real.
Kissing scenes are never romantic or sexy. They're actually super technical, like, 'Move your head; you're blocking her light,' or, 'Stop looking like an idiot when you kiss her.'
It's always a little nerve-wracking to do a love scene, more than anything because it's just awkward.
Kissing in the movies is a real art - figuring out where to put your heads so it looks good on camera. I have had other co-stars who couldn't work that out, which made it a lot harder for me.
I can't bear kissing scenes.
Honestly, ever since I've been married, the part of a job as an actress where you have to kiss other people, I find totally bizarre.
I think it's almost easier to do a kissing scene with someone you don't know.
