Set in the 1800s, the Francis Lee-directed movie is based on the southern coast of England and follows the life of the paleontologist Mary Anning (played by Winslet) who develops an intense romantic relationship with a much younger married woman, played by Ronan. We’ll do this with the kissing, boobs, you go down there, then you do this, then you climb up here,” she added. And I just said to him, ‘Listen, let us work it out.’ And we did. “I just think Saoirse and I, we just felt really safe. “It’s definitely not like eating a sandwich,” Winslet said. Watch Now: Glamour Video.In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, actress Kate Winslet stated that she and her costar Saoirse Ronan choreographed the sex scenes themselves for their upcoming romantic drama, Ammonite. Jill Gutowitz is a writer and comedian living in Los Angeles. And personally, I’m ready to move on from moody lesbian period films about repressed women (cough cough, Carol, Portrait of a Lady on Fire, Vita and Virginia, Collette, Blue Is the Warmest Color)…but for now, I’ll take a Kate Winslet face perch, even if that means sitting through four dozen scenes of white women staring at rocks. They will literally cut from Ronan having an orgasm to-I’m not kidding-a literal shot of coal burning. Somehow the straights delivered (for once).Īmmonite isn’t perfect: It gives you as much misery at it gives you joy. It was a much needed culmination of their repressed sexual desires, a desperate release which demanded a mouth-watering sex scene. I feel differently about Saoirse mounting Kate’s face, and the tracking of both women’s desire and pleasure as they fuck each other. It’s one of my favorite women-loving-women sex scenes, but also, I wouldn’t exactly say mouth spitting is your everyday, humdrum lesbian experience. Disobedience had a, ahem, Very Hot scene between Rachel Weisz and Rachel McAdams, in which Weisz spits in McAdams’s mouth. What I loved about the Ammonite sex scene, as compared with sex scenes in other lesbian movies, was that it wasn’t dressed up with all the bells and whistles-it wasn’t shocking or outrageous. Warning: You do have to stare at a lot of rocks before you get to the good stuff. It’s emotional, it’s slow, it’s tender-oh God, I sound like such a bottom right now, but who wouldn’t want to get topped by Kate Winslet? But their second sex scene-the definitive Love Scene-is extraordinarily sexy because it just feels real. In Mary and Charlotte’s first sexual encounter, things escalate quickly and Mary basically dives to the floor to go down on Charlotte, which was hot. Winslet literally said that performing their sex scene wasn’t like “eating a sandwich.” Huh? Neither comment necessarily inspired confidence in me that a cabal of cringe-straights could pull off a true-to-form lesbian sex scene-but that’s exactly what it was. Ronan mentioned that she consulted her gay friends for “advice” on, um, being gay. And nothing has ever been hotter.ĭuring the Ammonite press tour, Winslet and Ronan said some unsettling stuff about playing queer. I’m not sure how to wade into this sentence or how to coddle you through this, so I’ll just say it: Saoirse sits on Kate’s face. After what feels like eight hours of Mary (Kate Winslet), a fossil lesbian, being horny for rocks and gazing miserably out at the frigid sea mist, the culmination of her relationship with Charlotte (Saoirse Ronan) is actually well worth the wait.
