It's very difficult to release an X-rated movie.
I'm not a big one for lots of genitals flapping in the films.
I really like gratuitous nudity. I hate when people go, 'I'll only do it if it makes sense for the movie'. It never makes sense. So I like it - the more gratuitous the better.
Thus, in pornographic novels, action has to be limited to the copulation of clichés.
It's one of those scenarios where no, I never imagined that I'd be directed in a love scene - not even a love scene because it's kind of a hard-core sex scene because it's kind of just purely played for this carnal venting.
I felt people responded to two things. One, obviously, is the gore and the scenes like the eye gauging.
I’ve actually been in a lot of movies that involve sucking on fingers.
I think explicit love scenes are a turn off unless it's the kind you read with one hand.
If it doesn't have sex scenes in it, I won't do it.
It's difficult for me to say, but I don't think the sex scenes are particularly erotic.
If you think 'Game of Thrones' throws around some erroneous, unnecessary nudity, wait til you see 'Silicon Valley.'
There are some novelists who can get away with writing about sex - Philip Roth, Ian McEwan - but they are rare.
I had never done anything like I had done in 'Masters of Sex.' Those are some very adventurous scenes.
I have no problems with the NC-17 rating. I want more NC-17 films. More adult cinema!
