Stone remembers watching the interrogation scene for the first time. “After we shot Basic Instinct, I’m called in to see it. Not just with the director, as one would expect, given the situation that left us all, so to speak, but with a room full of agents. and lawyers, most of whom had nothing to do with the project, ‘she wrote.
“That was how I first saw my vagina shoot, long after I was told, ‘We can see nothing – I just need to remove your panties, because the white reflects the light, so we know you have a panties on. ”
According to Stone, she “went to the projection box, (director) Paul (Verhoeven) punched him in the face, left, went to my car and called my lawyer, Marty Singer.”
While the 63-year-old star, who played the murder suspect Catherine Tramell, admits that there are ‘many views on this subject’, she claims that, as the ‘one with the vagina … the other views’ * t. ”
After consulting with her attorney, Stone said, she finally chose not to ask for orders over the controversial scene, according to the extract in Vanity Fair. “Why? Because it was correct for the film and for the character; and because I did it, after all,” she wrote.
Verhoeven earlier denied that Stone did not consent to her film being filmed when she crossed and crossed her legs.
“Sharon is lying,” he told ICON in 2017. “Any actress knows what she’s going to see if you ask her to take off her underwear and point it at the camera.”
A representative of Verhoeven did not want to comment on this.
Stone’s memoirs also contain some details about the sexual harassment she encountered during her career, and are specifically advised by a producer to sleep with a male star to improve their “chemistry on screen”.
“I felt like they could only hire a fellow star with talent, someone who could deliver a scene and remember his rules.”
