Verhoeven previously denied that Stone didn’t consent to her crotch being filmed as she crossed and uncrossed her legs. “Why? Because it was correct for the film and for the character and because, after all, I did it,” she wrote. Basic Instincts most famous scene is undoubtedly the interrogation scene, where Stone notoriously crosses and uncrosses her legs. While the 63-year-old star, who played murder suspect Catherine Tramell, acknowledges there are “many points of view on this topic,” she asserts that, as the “one with the vagina … the other points of view are bullsh*t.”Īfter consulting with her lawyer, Stone said, she ultimately chose not to seek an injunction over the controversial scene, according to the excerpt in Vanity Fair. THE LEG-CROSSING SCENE WAS NOT IN THE SCRIPT. “That was how I saw my vagina shot for the first time, long after I’d been told, ‘We can’t see anything – I just need you to remove your panties, as the white is reflecting the light, so we know you have panties on.’”Īccording to Stone, she “went to the projection booth, slapped (director) Paul (Verhoeven) across the face, left, went to my car, and called my lawyer, Marty Singer.”
