Talking about the fact that doing an intimate scene at this age is unusual, Meryl Streep also clearly it is how benighted we are. The actor said these scene are authentic and add value to the film. “S*x scenes, love scenes. Yes, at this age it’s unusual for somebody to do a love scene, to be making love. Yeah, that is unusual,” Streep said as per Contact Music. “But that is just how benighted we are. Because, you know, we still are alive. It’s you and I, baby. It’s authentic”
Meryl Streep went on to criticise the idea of fake standards that have been set by the business. “The whole idea that you have to look a certain way and be a certain age to earn love is ridiculous,” Streep said. “We love what we love. It doesn’t matter what shape it is. It’s thrilling to see real people on screen.”
