1:43:02
a shot where you went
continuously from Oliver,

1:43:08
taking him down across the bed to Irena.
1:43:30
After the film was
all done and completed,

1:43:36
Nastassia had second thoughts
1:43:38
about the large amount
of nudity in the film,

1:43:44
and she went to Ned Tanen at Universal
1:43:48
and asked that it be cut out.
1:43:55
Part of this was the fact that
1:43:58
she and I were on
the outs at that time and she

1:44:03
was not happy with me, either.
1:44:06
But I met with Ned and he said,
1:44:09
"Was there anything
deceptive about it?"

1:44:12
I said, "No, it was exactly
what we all talked about.

1:44:16
"Nobody was tricked,
1:44:17
"told one thing
and used a different way."

1:44:22
He said, "In that case,
1:44:24
"this is the film we made,
we'll leave it the way it is,

1:44:28
"if she doesn't want to do publicity,
then she won't."

1:44:31
That's sort of what happened.
1:44:35
I love that shot in the window.
1:44:38
I love these shots
where the framing changes,

1:44:42
the camera either moves
from room to room

1:44:45
or the characters do
and you have blank spaces.
