Wright Penn: 'Love scenes are difficult'

Robin Wright Penn has admitted that she finds filming sex scenes difficult.

The actress has said that she was relieved that it only took one take to film the love scene with Keanu Reeves in The Private Lives Of Pippa Lee.

Speaking to USA Today, Wright Penn said: "Any kind of vulnerability is always hard to do. Just being exposed in that way is difficult. People say it's hard to do those scenes revealing the blood and soul of your heart, crying.

"That's easy-peasy for me. Intimacy is far more challenging. Thank God we did it in one take."

The 43-year-old also admitted that she wants fans to remember her for new movies rather than 1994's Forrest Gump and 1987's The Princess Bride.

She added: "I love those movies, and they're going to go down in history. They're iconic. And I love that I'm a part of film history. But, it's so then, and we're now. It's 20, 22 years ago. I'm interested in doing other things."
