He said, “You went too far.” And he asked, “Was that dick that ejaculated into the camera yours?” And I said, “No, Dad, that wasn’t my dick.”ĭo you think it is more difficult to show a penis onscreen than extreme violence like you showed in Irreversible? No one got their face smashed in by a fire extinguisher in Irreversible, but it looks real and I thought, “This is a fight I wish I could see in real life. I got more excited shooting fight scenes in my previous movies, maybe because I haven’t been in a fight myself. I never got aroused during those scenes, never got excited. But there is nothing that we shot that didn’t seem natural when we were doing it. I didn’t want to shoot the nude scenes over and over again, so for all the nude scenes, we had two camera positions for each scene so we had editing options. We didn’t even rehearse before - the actors had never even kissed each other before we started. We shot all the nude scenes the first week with a very small crew.

We shot the movie very quickly - in five weeks. How did you choreograph the sex scenes with your actors? All of my male French friends wanted to be in the movie (one, Vincent Maraval, of Love production shingle Wild Bunch does make an appearance, as a kinky cop who “likes to watch.”) Of course it is easier for a man to show his dick on screen than for a woman to appear naked, not because there is a difference but because we are in a male-dominated world and men are more disrespectful to woman than woman are to men, so showing the penis, erect or not, is much easier. Klara initially didn’t want to do it, but that was because she wasn’t an actress and was unsure. Was it difficult to convince the actors to bare all for the film? There’s been a lot of discussion about how much of the sex in Love is real and how much was simulated. I don’t think this movie is made to arouse anybody or to arouse them in an emotional way. Maybe one day I will be excited about doing an adult movie - a movie made to arouse people. Regular sex, regular loving sex is rarely on screen. Or in sex movies, adult movies, in which are all about sex, there are no feelings involved. Typically in a film, when the scene starts turning sexual the scene ends and you go to the next morning. And I don’t think there are so many movies that transport sex as a real passion. What’s important isn’t whether its real sex or simulated but what emotion it transports.

There are many movies that contain what people call explicit genuine sex scenes and ones that show simulated sex. I was obsessed with Sylvia Kristel in Emmanuelle. While watching Paul Verhoeven’s Showgirls, I thought Elizabeth Berkley was the sexiest woman in the world. I really like the scene between Julie Christie and Donald Sutherland in Don’t Look Now. Since we are going to be mainly talking about sex through this interview, what are your favorite sex scenes in cinema? simulated cinema sex, showing Love to his father and why he thinks porn is “science fiction.” premiere of Love in Los Angeles, Noe spoke to The Hollywood Reporter about real vs. 'Love's' NSFW Cannes Poster: Who Are the Nude Models?Īhead of Alchemy’s U.S. The many explicit scenes are given extra oomph by Noe’s use of 3D, including a straight-to-camera close up of an ejaculating penis. And his ex-girlfriend Electra (Aomi Muyock). The 3D drama, looks at the erotic relationship between an American ex-pat (Karl Glusman), his current partner Omi (Klara Kristin).

But while his previous movies have shocked with graphic, at times almost unwatchable, violence (few have sat through the brutal anal rape scene in Noe’s Irreversible and emerged unscathed), in Love, Noe’s latest, its sex, lots and lots and lots of sex, that is causing the scandal. A man who proudly wears the mantle of cinema’s L’Enfant terrible, Argentine French director Gaspar Noe has been dividing and enraging audiences and critics from the start.
