JON HAMM DETAILS NUDE SCENE IN ‘FARGO:’ Jon Hamm spoke about the nude scene he filmed for the fifth season of Fargo during a recent appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! The Mad Men actor plays Sherriff Roy Tillman on the series, who steps out of a hot tub naked in front of two FBI agents there to question him during one scene. “I thought I had a rider in my contract where naked’s fine, cold naked is not great. I’m more of a warm naked guy,” he joked, as the scene was filmed outdoors in freezing temperatures in Calgary, Canada. “In Celsius, zero is freezing. … But then it gets down to, like, minus 30, and you go, ‘This is not safe,'” he quipped. Hamm added that a “flesh-colored sock” was “cinched” around him for the scene, which he said they call a “c—k sock.”
‘LOVE ACTUALLY’ DIRECTOR SAYS ‘STALKER SCENE’ IS ‘A BIT WEIRD:’ The director of Love Actually is reevaluating one of the storylines in the film: when Mark (Andrew Lincoln) confesses his love to Juliet (Kiera Knightley), who is married to Mark’s best friend (Chiwetel Ejiofor), through handwritten signs. “He actually turns up, to his best friend’s house, to say to his best friend's wife, on the off chance that she answers the door, 'I love you,'” Richard Curtis told The Independent recently. “I think it's a bit weird.” He added, “I remember being taken by surprise about seven years ago. I was going to be interviewed by somebody and they said, 'Of course, we're mainly interested in the stalker scene,' and I said, 'What scene is that?.' And then I was, like, educated in it. All I can say is that a lot of intelligent people were involved in the film at the time, and we didn't think it was a stalker scene… but if it's interesting or funny for different reasons now then, you know, God bless our progressive world.”
