Behind the scenes (198)

Les jeux de la Comtesse Dolingen de Gratz
Year: 1981
Katia Wastchenko remembers the making of the film as "an enjoyable experience", and describes Binet and the rest of the crew as "very kind". Although she had not read 'Sombre Printemps' and was, at the age of 12, "too young to be curious or interested about Unica Zürn's life", Wastchenko tells me that Binet "took the time to explain to her the context of the most 'sensual' scenes", and helped her to approach the role by confiding some of her own childhood memories.

Circle of Two
Year: 1981
In her autobiography "A Paper Life," first published in 2004, Tatum O'Neal expressed unhappy thoughts about the film: "The premise of the movie was a little pedophilic and creepy, but the worst part for me was having to do a semi-nude scene. It's agonizing to watch-- this awkward young girl disrobing for the artist in his studio. Even from the back, my body language shows that they'd forced me to take my shirt off-- at least it's obvious to me-- and that I'm standing there miserably aware of my half-developed breasts [. . . ] Even when I had my clothes on, I felt ill at ease making the movie."

Eros, O Deus do Amor
Year: 1981
Marcelo Ribeiro revealed that he felt horny when playing the sex scene with Kate Lyra, he even used duct tape on his private parts to avoid getting an erection. "In my first film, I didn't really know how to act. They put duct tape "there" because I couldn't control myself. It was difficult," he said.

Christiane F. - Wir Kinder vom Bahnhof Zoo
Year: 1981
-Your last scene in the film, when you’re having sex with your male client, is pretty graphic for a 14-year-old in 1981. Were you nervous?
-I was not involved in the gay world and of course I was nervous to act out something like that in front of a camera. This was also the same with my first sex scene with Natja. I hadn’t had any sexual experiences yet! So before the scene with my male client, Uli got me alone without the crew, just me and him, and he got behind me to demonstrate how it should look.

In reference to the filming, Natja Brunckhorst said: "We shot a scene on Kurfürstenstraße. Christiane, my character, is standing alone waiting for someone to pick her up. It was a long lens shot so the camera team was far away. A car drove up and I was about to get in when I saw, out of the corner of my eye, some of the crew running towards me shouting: "No! No! No!" And it came to me: this was a real guy, not an actor, trying to pick me up. I almost got into a car with someone who wanted to sleep with a 13-year-old."

Twee vorstinnen en een vorst
Year: 1981
When the movie was released, Eric Clerckx said the fact that as a 16-year-old rookie in the film world he had to get into bed cock-naked with Linda van Dyck, who was twice his age, didn't bother him much... "Well, either you're an actor or you're not", he said, shrugging his shoulders. "I didn't suffer any traumas, if that's what you mean."

Lulu
Year: 1980
Though Anne Bennent’s Lulu is frequently nude, the sex is almost clinically soft core and lacks the sense of eroticism found in Borowczyk’s other films. Perhaps the most perverse element is the fact that Lulu’s husband Schön was played by the amazing Heinz Bennent, Anne's real-life father.

In a 1980 interview, asked about the sensual scenes with her father Heinz, Anne Bennent said, "Somehow that was funny... My father and I... We laughed a lot about it - but Mama probably didn't think it was that funny: she turned pale with jealousy..."

Vergiss beim Sex die Liebe nicht - Der neue Schulmädchenreport 13. Teil
Year: 1980
Recalling the filming of this movie, Katja Bienert said, "This was an outstanding experience, cause the stuff was already cult when we worked on No 13: All the later well-known actors denied later on in their careers that they worked in those reports that were based on real schoolgirls' (and -boys') experiences: Compared to nowadays charming, stupid and harmless. I enjoyed working with the production and playing a Greek schoolgirl with a religious background and her own thoughts on strict virginity was fun. I looked great in those days and I remember whenever I had to shoot a love scene the producer Wolf C.Hartwig showed up on the set"

Cannibal Holocaust
Year: 1980
Director Ruggero Deodato revealed the girl in the scene was 13 years old.

"When I was with Tarantino in Venice, he broke my balls, he wanted me to tell him how I had impaled this little girl! I explained to him that I had only spent $10, he couldn't believe it. I wish I had the strength to go to the Amazon and find the 13-year-old girl who did the scene, she was from a village where they had never seen a film, a camera, a photograph. What must this poor girl have thought when someone explained to her what was going to happen in the scene! What will she have of it in her memory?")

(“Quando ero con Tarantino a Venezia, lui mi ha rotto le scatole, voleva che gli dicessi come avevo fatto ad impalare questa ragazzina! Gli ho spiegato che avevo speso soltanto 10 dollari, non ci credeva. Vorrei aver la forza di andare in Amazzonia a cercare la ragazzina di 13 anni che ha fatto la scena, lei era di un villaggio dove non avevano mai visto un film, una macchina da presa, una fotografia. Che cosa avrà pensato questa, poverina, quando qualcuno le ha spiegato cosa sarebbe successo nella scena! Cosa ne avrà nella sua memoria?”

Carl Gabriel Yorke became severely upset while filming a scene in which his character takes a part in the rape of a native girl. "I was the last one to rape her. I dropped my pants and jumped on her and did my best to pretend. And then Francesca, as my movie girlfriend, pulled me backwards off the girl. She did a good job of it, sending me right down into the mud on my ass. Or I should say in my ass. I felt the mud go right up my butt. And that's when it happened. That's when I couldn't control my human feelings. A huge wave of anger rose up through my torso like lava. I felt like I had superhuman strength as I grabbed Francesca and threw her to the side, then dove back on to the girl and 'finished' the rape. That might be my most honest moment in the movie. As soon as we were done raping that girl, we all had lunch together. This is reality on a movie," he said.

Gehrayee
Year: 1980
Padmini Kolhapure had courted a controversy when her film Gehrayee was released. A film on exorcism that revolved around a young girl possessed by a spirit, there was a nude backless shot that featured Padmini with a tantric played by Amrish Puri.
Director Aruna Raje (one half of the erstwhile Aruna-Vikas team that made Gehrayee) remembers that they first got an okay from her parents since Padmini was still a minor. Aruna-Vikas then explained the scene in explicit detail to her before she came on board. “I put a long orangish shawl on her that completely covered her front. We thought that even if some part of it was seen, it would pass off as a reflection of the fire in front of her.
“Luckily, Padmini had long hair which covered much of her bare back and only just before the shoot, I pulled down her panty. Everything was so beautifully handled that not for a moment was anybody embarrassed.”

La femme enfant
Year: 1980
The shooting did not reflect such a harmony, according to Raphaëlle Billetdoux: "With Kinski, it was a nightmare and at one point I had the temptation to stop there, it was no longer possible to continue shooting with. For example, during the bathing scene that Kinski is preparing for the girl: she was already very anxious about shooting a nude scene, even shot in a very modest way.I had reduced the technical team to and set the stage so that Kinski turned her back (as well as the camera), as she was about to enter the bathtub, and then he had a fit: "What ?! I turn my back ?! Never ! And then, I want to see her naked ... "But you know, Kinski, it's ... special, I mean, he's doing so much to be hateful that he's almost touching ..." ( Conference of Aspect Festival of French Cinema '80, June 1980)
