Mimicking his own behavior leading up to the intimate scenes, the actor recalled: “What’s that like? Can I kiss you now? You don’t have to, even if we pretend we’re married.”

“Florence is Florence.”

When it came time to shoot the first take of the “very intimate, passionate sex scene,” the actors got a little carried away. Or to put it another way: They are simply great at their job.

It was filmed on a closed set, with only the two main actors, a cameraman and a boom operator.

“The scene becomes passionate – the way we choreographed it – and we kind of get into it.

“And we go a little further than we should just because we don’t hear ‘Cut’ and it feels safe and we say, ‘Okay, let’s move on to the next thing and the next thing and us.’ I’ll let it continue.’”

But the critically acclaimed acting duo kept going for so long that they finally looked up from each other and realized the camera was no longer on them.

Garfield said he and Pugh “both kind of telepathically said to each other, ‘This definitely feels like a long take.'”

“I look up and in the corner is (the cameraman) and our boom operator. (He) has the camera at his side and has turned into the wall.”
