Then she hated me for all her life.This article has been updated with new information and contains a disturbing story of rape and assault. I wanted Maria to feel, not to act, the rage and the humiliation. I didn’t want Maria to act her humiliation, her rage. You know, to make movies, sometime, to obtain something, I think that you have to be completely free. I wanted her to react humiliated, if it goes on, she shouts, “No, no!” And I think that she hated me, and also Marlon, because we didn’t tell her, and there was that detail of the butter used as a lubricant, and I still feel very guilty for that.ĭo you regret that you shot the scene like you did? But, I’ve been, in a way, horrible to Maria because I didn’t tell her what was going on, because I wanted her reaction as a girl, not as an actress. And there was a baguette and there was butter, and we looked at each other and without saying anything, we knew what we wanted. And we were having with Marlon breakfast on the floor of the flat where we were shooting. It was in the script that he had to rape her in a way. The scene you have just seen before, which is called the sequence of the butter, is an idea that I had with Marlon in the morning before shooting it.
LAST TANGO IN PARIS BUTTER SCENE UNEDITEC MOVIE
After the movie we really didn’t see each other, because she was hating me. She died, she died two years ago, I think. Here are Bertolucci’s 2013 College Tour remarks in their entirety: So we can probably expect the news about Last Tango in Paris to break again in 2020, when it will shock the world anew. But the Hitchcock/Hedren story, first reported in the 1980s, was all over the internet in 2008, then in 2012, then in 2016-a four -ear cycle of outrage and forgetting. If this crop of Last Tango in Paris stories is the data point that lets someone finally see the shape of the system, so much the better. El Mundo de Alycia did what they set out to do, getting Schneider’s story wider exposure and Bertolucci denounced-as he surely deserves-and maybe one cycle of media coverage of a fact that was already easy to find will be enough. Everyone’s got to find out about this stuff somehow it’s good if more people know about Maria Schneider’s treatment on the set of Last Tango in Paris, just like it’s good that more people learned about Tippi Hedren’s treatment on the set of The Birds when it inexplicably became news again a few months ago. And very few of the Blue Is the Warmest Color pieces make the easy connection to Bertolucci (though both films show up on “ Actresses Who Were Terrorized by Directors” listicles). Anna Kendrick reports people rolling their eyes when she mentioned it, and-as with most facts that are inconvenient to men or to money-there’s certainly no shortage of people who will feign uncertainty where there is none. Or maybe people just didn’t know about it or want to believe it. But 2013 was also the year of Blue Is the Warmest Color, which raised the same questions about directors exploiting young actresses and produced its own think-piece cycle, so this seems like an unlikely explanation as well. Has our tolerance for sexual assault changed that much in three short years? Maybe-the allegations against Bill Cosby, which started in earnest in 2005, didn’t get widespread media attention until 2014. So what happened this time? Has social media become more prone to outrage cycles? Well, 2013 was the year of Justine Sacco, so: no. This isn’t a case of a woman’s account of sexual assault suddenly becoming credible when a man weighs in either: Bertolucci confirmed the story in multiple English-language outlets in 2013. It was literally impossible to do even the most cursory research of the film or its director without encountering this story. Schneider’s account has been on the film’s Wikipedia page since 2007 and Bertolucci’s Wikipedia page since 2012 (in a section called “The scandal of Last Tango in Paris”). Unfortunately, it’s one more clear-cut example of the gendered violence women are subjected to daily without any kind of consequences.Įl Mundo de Alycia is right to say that Bertolucci’s comments about Last Tango In Paris didn’t lead to a social media furor at the time, but they weren’t exactly a secret. … We ask ourselves how it’s possible that a serious case like this hasn’t made its way into public opinion and been denounced. It’s only mentioned in a few articles about erotic films. Although the interview is several years old, it has had practically no repercussions on social networks or in the media.
