The actress stars in the film “Good Luck to You, Leo Grande,” which had its premiere at Sundance.

Emma Thompson has dared to do what Meryl Streep herself has not dared to do: perform frontal nudity at an age when very few actresses are still working, much less in roles that deal with the sexual life of their character.

Unlike her colleague, who used a double for a brief scene in the movie ‘Don’t Look Up’, the British actress wanted to be the one who took off her clothes in front of the cameras to tell the story of a widow 60-year-old who hires a male escort in hopes of having her first orgasm on the tape ‘Good Luck to You, Leo Grande’.

“It is a great challenge to undress at 62”, she has acknowledged in a new interview with ‘Cinema Cafe’ about a specific moment in the plot, in which the protagonist takes off her clothes to look at herself in the mirror.

Ironically, Emma is convinced that she would not have been able to face a challenge like that at any other time in her life, but precisely her age was the great obstacle to overcome when doing so because the public is not used to it, in her opinion. , to see “unaltered bodies” on the big screen.

“Nothing has changed when it comes to the terrible demands that are placed on women in the real world, but also in the world of acting. That obligation to have to be thin remains the same, and in fact, in a certain sense I think everything is worse now,” he lamented.

As part of the preparation process, Emma and her co-star Daryl McCormack did various rehearsals in which they were both naked and also openly discussed their relationship with their own bodies to confess which parts of theirs they liked the most.
