Did You Know?
| Trivia | In this movie Marie Trintignant has her first nude scene at the age of sixteen and directed by Alain Corneau, who years later became her adoptive father (after he married Nadine Trintignant). In 'Projection privée', Corneau talked about the shooting of the nude scene: "I don't hide anything from her about the violence of the film and the hardness of the shooting, and I describe to her the scene where she opens her pink blouse, takes it off and gets completely naked in front of Patrick Dewaere. Marie will be marked by this film, especially by her nude scene in the bedroom. She will have trouble with nudity afterwards: is that where it comes from? Possibly, I don't deny this possible responsibility." See more » |
