For better or worse, film discussions on the internet in the year 2023 have almost invariably given way to discourse about sex scenes. This discourse went beyond the internet today and onto the floor of the New York Film Festival with Yorgos Lanthimos.

It was a very important part of her journey, we felt that we shouldn’t shy away from it. I would feel very disingenuous to tell this story about this character who is so free and open and then be a prude about the sexual aspect of it,” Lanthimos continuedShe had to be free, there should be no judgment. The same way she learns about language and human suffering and love and science and politics, she should be equally free about sex.

Outside of that question, the director spoke often about Stone’s contributions to the film, not just as an actor, but as a producer too. Lanthimos rarely writes films with specific actors in mind, but he and Stone got to talking about the project when workingto the screen since about 2011.
