The filming set of Leethe film directed by Ellen Kuras that tells the story of war photographer Lee Millerhas once again brought to the fore the difficulties involved record nude scenes. This has been confirmed by the protagonist of the film, the well-known Kate Winsletwhose experience during the filming of the film has been an odyssey that, he says, has strengthened his way of thinking.
The Titanic actress, who has already been a victim of comments about the physique in other situations, has granted an interview to Vogue in which he has opened up about the complications there were in filming these parts of the film. The reason? An injury on the first day of filming put his participation at risk: a slip that caused a severe blow to his back.
“I had three gigantic bruises on my spine.”says Winslet, who makes the summary of her ailments short and concise: “I could barely stand.” However, these purple spots, accompanied by excruciating pain, did not stop the production of the tape. In fact, the actress refused to delay recording plans and even he even paid the cast and crew out of his own pocket for the problems caused by the accident.
“Young girls are not afraid. I shit on everything…”
While these pains remained in her back, the actress was unable to exercise, something vital to maintain shape. Despite this, Winslet decided the show had to go on. and gave the green light to the scenes in which she is seen naked up or in a bikini. “I had to be fucking brave to show my fleshy body without hiding”, he assures. “And believe me, there were people on my team who told me ‘maybe you want to sit down for a while,’ and I responded: ‘Because? For showing a little meat? No, that’s what it’s going to look like!”. So it was.
However, and despite receiving comments about his physique after Leethe actress insists that there is no comparison with everything she endured when, being a twenty year oldembarked on the difficult task of assuming one of the leading roles in Titanic, alongside a young DiCaprio, in 1996. Those were “Horrible trials and scrutiny, which could be described as harassment, by the mainstream media”as detailed in said interview.

This situation, he says, has not diminished over the years. “Men who think you need their help are incredibly unbearable. I even had a director who said, ‘Listen, if you make my movie I’ll get your little girl financed. Lee’”, he explained, in relation to the new film. And yet, Winslet insists that things, although this has not disappeared, have changed. Also to explain this, she has decided to be clear and direct: “Young girls are not afraid, I shit on everything. “That makes me feel so proud.”
