The 'Frida' scene that made Salma Hayek cry and other sequences in which the actresses suffered real
The confessions of the Mexican actress about the crazy scene that she was forced to do in the film 'Frida' are nothing more than the echo of other complaints that actresses such as María Schneider, Bjork, Renate Langer, Adèle Exarchopoulos and Léa have made for decades. Seydoux about how they felt violated during the filming of erotic scenes.
In 2002, the movie 'Frida' was released in theaters around the world. Ten days after its premiere, the Mexican newspapers reported that it was sweeping the box office. The specialized Hollywood critic, for its part, seemed very pleased with the interpretation that the actress Salma Hayek had made of the emblematic painter and was especially concerned about the crazy scenes that she had interpreted with another woman.
At the time, those explicit images in which the na*** Mexican woman is seen waiting suggestively for a stocky brunette who invites her to bed - a scene that portrayed the multiple female lovers that the painter had had in real life - attracted attention media coverage, but they were soon merged into the innumerable record of Hollywood crazy scenes.
However, 15 years later, this past Wednesday, December 13, Google searches for the movie "Frida" and that particular scene skyrocketed.
The actress, after years of silence, had come out to tell the world in a column in the New York Times how she had burst into tears before starting to shoot that scene. "For the first and last time in my career I had a panic attack... It was clear to me that (Harvey Weinstein) would never let me finish this movie without him having his fantasy one way or another."
Salma Hayek uncovered to the world that she had had to do acrazy scene that was not in the initial script and that she considered unnecessary, just to please the se**al voracity of Harvey Weinstein who, due to her systematic refusal to have s** with him, had forced her to get na*** in the movie
Her forceful cry, which soon spread through all the media, however, seemed to be nothing more than the echo of the voices of other actresses who at the time made the world see that those crazy scenes that had so naturally been consumed in the cinema and that had even made them win awards were, in reality, the result of non-explicit pacts, of manipulations, of transgressed limits, of ungiven consent.
