Truthfully, I’d probably turn green with jealousy. Storm-brewing jealousy. I wouldn’t say anything to them about it though, because I always tend to keep my frustrations to myself.
As a person who ISN’T in the industry, yeah! I’d be struggling to find equilibrium. But I know me…..if I were in the industry, I would be the one pushing them for more realism.
If I found myself jealous then I would seriously have to ask myself why I’m insecure…I can only think that it would be a representation of my feelings about myself
@lynneblundell – I agree with you. And if the actor himself is the sort of fellow who gets it on off-screen with everyone he does a love scene with (that is the fear of actors doing such scenes, isn’t it?) then he deserves to be free to do that.
I was in a play in college where I had this really long kiss scene while dialog was going on in the background. I would run my fingers through his hair and lift my right foot at the correct times during the dialog to get the right laugh.
I was so concerned about his girlfriend that I made sure I had a yucky tight lipped kiss, so he could go back and honestly tell her that he didn’t enjoy it.
Bad thing was, I guess more than his girlfriend found out. I didn’t have a boyfriend at that small college my entire College career. If I had it to do over again, I may have made sure he enjoyed it.
What if you are sitting in a theater with her during her said scene and she starts glowing! And puts her hand down your pants and you start moaning… and everybody looks in your direction… and they realize that sitting next to you is the actor who is nude on screen… and start taking pictures with their camera phones… but you don’t want her to stop… so she keeps at it… and you get louder… and the whole theater gets into it… and they start cheering… and she makes a show of it… and you are screaming now… and the popcorn is flying, all buttery… and the ushers strategically shine their flashlights… and you climax in a glorious cecil b fashion… and the theater erupts in applause… I think I’ll keep her, thanks.
