Kate Winslet & James Gandolfini, Romance and Cigarettes
John Turturro, the director, thought things were getting too hot and heavy during the couple's sex scenes, so he had them film their parts separately. "So I decided to take James out of the scene and I put Kate on a big bouncy ball and just had her bounce and look around," he said. "The problem was how to connect them so when it was James' turn, he pretended to have sex and I threw Kate's wig around...so if you watch the scene, they're completely free, but they're not in the same room together."
Ben Affleck, Live By Night
Ben Affleck not only starred in Live By Night, he also directed it! Yelling out "cut" during an intimate scene was kind of difficult, but necessary. "We had these montages of sex scenes and in my mind—I was thinking, Well, we're just going again, like without yelling 'cut'; we'll just keep going. And finally, Sienna just started laughing and said, 'Who do you think you are? How many times can one man climax?!'"
