Zoe Kazan plays Leo's young secretary in the new Sam Mendes movie Revolutionary Road, which looks somehow more unappealing than that other droning Kate Winslet-led melodrama, Little Children. However, there are apparently some nasty sex scenes this time around to at least make us want to pay money to see Leonardo DiCaprio "act..."
In an extended profile for the New York Observer, Kazan (granddaughter of the witch-hunter/director) talks about the sticky-hot sex she had with the Boy Wonder:
Her frightened, large eyes play to her advantage; she laughs crassly; and she looks perfectly abandoned when Frank leaves her naked, barely covered by a sheet, and tells her she’s been “swell.”
“It’s been cut down to just a topless scene now, but I’m glad for, you know, my parents’ sake,” Ms. Kazan said (she’d done an excruciatingly long nude scene in The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie). “Also, it was a really hot day when we were shooting in Maureen’s apartment in Harlem with no air-conditioning, and we were all sticky and blotchy. These were just not the best conditions for, like, a nude scene.”
Actually, that sounds about right to us.
After they finished filming the scene (and Ms. Kazan had donned her robe), Mr. DiCaprio hugged her and told her she had done “a good job.” But Ms. Kazan—whose boyfriend is There Will Be Blood and Little Miss Sunshine star Paul Dano—wasn’t too star-struck.
