Translating an erotic work of fiction like Fifty Shades Of Grey from a book to a film necessarily meant some changes and compromise. The films 32 year old star Jamie Dornan for example has revealed he did not perform his raunchy sex scenes completely naked.
Another change came when a particularly crude scene was written out of the movie entirely. That scene features Christian removing a tampon from his lover Anastasia Steele before having sex with her.t did not make it into the movie director Sam Taylor Johnson told Variety. It was never even discussed. The reasoning behind cutting the graphic scene was not just to earn an R rating instead of an NC-17.
The book needed to put you in Anas shoes to be a successful experience producer Michael De Luca said in the same Variety article. The movie didn't need to do that. Its a completely different medium. E.L. James the author of the books and a producer of the movie, agreed that not all of the books sex needed to make it onto the screen. Fifty Shades Of Grey is first and foremost a romantic love story and the sex is only part of that she said.
Meanwhile Jamie revealed how he managed to preserve just a shred of modesty while filming the films necessarily erotic scenes. Its like one of those little satchels that Robin Hood or someone of that era would have tied on to his belt Jamie told Variety of the modesty option wardrobe came up with. Theres no back. Its tiny. I mean its not tiny. Because its got to hold a lot he added. It was not just the nudity that was a challenge to Jamie either. Playing Christian Grey, the actor had to become adept at S&M-style sex. We had an adviser in the field that we'd talk to, a guy on the kink scene explain ed Jamie.
There was the practical side of things the Irish actor continued. I learned all sorts of tricks that will support me through my life. Even with all of this training and preparation Jamie reportedly binge-read all three Fifty Shades books after being cast there were a few skills the actor could not quite master. Theres probably a technique to using a whip he explained. But I got there in the end. Its really like fly fishing. Jamie and his 25 year old co star Dakota Johnson may have been relieved that they did not have to experience one of the most notorious scenes from the Fifty Shades Of Grey novel.
