“The British often shy away from any cinematic interpretation of real sex. They sometimes have what I call "subtle sex," which is really introspective and has soft music in the background. Either that or it's played for comedy. The British are kind of hung up about sex. They find it kind of titillating and they make jokes about it because they're nervous.” KindRealSometimesSexComedyJokesBritishBackgroundsNervousSubtleShyInterpretationHungIntrospectiveCinematic Author:Steve Coogan
“If you write what you know about, you will always be on safe ground. I am very edgy and nervous about going into territories I know nothing about.

“The very dull truth is that writing love scenes is the same as writing other scenes - your job is to be fully engaged in the character's experience. What does this mean to them?
