The Sex Scene Featuring A Topless Helen Mirren

Kompas.com - 10/10/2010, 04:44 WIB

KOMPAS.com - We thought she was brave when she appeared in a bikini at 63. But Dame Helen Mirren obviously doesn’t have the body hang-ups that most of us do.

For two years on, she’s starring in a nude movie sex scene. And although many would demand the soft focus treatment, whatever their age, it seems the Oscar winner was happy to face reality.

Dame Helen, 65, who plays a brothel madam in Love Ranch, said of the scene with 35-year-old Sergio Peris-Mencheta: ‘I didn’t want it to be a fake, romantic soft-lensed moment.

To complicate things further, her husband, Taylor Hackford, is directing. But she added: ‘I trusted him to make it as true as possible.'

She added: 'On every level I felt I was in safe hands with my husband. Not just that he wouldn’t embarrass me but also that he would make it realistic and natural.’

Dame Helen has appeared naked in eight films – 1969’s Age of Consent, 1972’s Savage Messiah, then O Lucky Man!, Caligula, Hussy, Excalibur, The Cook, The Thief, His Wife And Her Lover and Calendar Girls.

She has said: ‘As you get older, naked stuff gets easier... more to do with the role than what men in the audience think.

'There’s a liberation about it.’

Hackford, 65, and Mirren have been together since 1986. They married in 1997.
