When I look at pic like this, the question of some silly interviewers about the "turn on" of shootling a love scene becomes more and more ridiculous.
lying on the bed or floor with you co star, half-nacked and some people bustling around with tape-measure, hot spotlights....poooo how stimulatory

yup, because if the scene is filmed in more than a few takes ...then they should be in the same position...so there is no incoherence when viewers watch the film...
or sometimes there are some mistakes like for example an actor is looking to the right...and then you see the next 'frame' and he's looking to the left...
something like that...they had to measure and note down everything, the position, the light, shadows, blah blah blah

Well, they must have to measure very accurately to make it work out...
I am so fascinated by filmmaking but I know almost nothing about it.
I like to read the trivia and goofs on IMDB too, after I've gone to see a film. The behind the scenes stuff is as interesting to me as the movie. I LOVE to listen to director/writer commentary on DVDs and if it's not there I get really annoyed. I am a junky for it.

Not only love scenes, when I look at a scene like this, I find it hard to believe, they are in a position to even create anything with an atmosphäre, because the real situation is so much different to what is supposed to appear on screen.
The top notch acting in the Weisz/Craig/Spall 'Betrayal' is emotionally true, often v funny and its beautifully staged with filmic qualities..
Okodoki I settle for those - but if you have a little extra time (1. bestechungsversuch) - the first one is bigger (2. Versuch) and therefore even better. She will help you to do the magic
..and this is just a cute smiley I found while looking
