Hardcore sex in 'Nymphomaniac' puts porn actor genitals on cast's bodies
May 22, 2013
For his upcoming film Nymphomaniac, Danish director Lars von Trier is using the genitals of porn actors having intercourse and superimposing them underneath the torsos of the movie's cast during sex scenes.
Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter in Cannes, the film's producer Louise Vesth explained: "We shot the actors pretending to have sex and then had the body doubles, who really did have sex, and in post we will digital impose the two. So above the waist it will be the star and the below the waist it will be the doubles."
The same report highlights the extensive time demands to produce these scenes caused delays that prevented Nymphomaniac premiering at the Cannes Film Festival.
Nymphomaniac is a drama and stars Charlotte Gainsbourg, Uma Thurman and Shia LaBeouf amongst others. It reportedly follows the story of a self-diagnosed nymphomaniac (Gainsbourg) who is telling a man the history of her sex life, from teenage years to adulthood.
Von Trier has used unusual digital techniques in the past. In 2009's notoriously violent Antichrist, a talking fox briefly appeared on screen to utter some choice words. He has also used unsimulated sex before (von Trier, not the fox), notably in Antichrist, as well as in 1998's The Idiots. Both passed the British Board of Film Classification without the explicit scenes being removed.
As surprising as the inclusion of real sex may be to some, it's not just von Trier pushing this boundary, nor is it uncommon for sex scenes in mainstream movies to be unsimulated. Aside from Antichrist, Michael Winterbottom's 9 Songs included several explicit scenes, including probably the first male ejaculation to feature in a film you could buy on the shelves of Woolworths.
In 2006, Shortbus from Hedwig and the Angry Inch director John Cameron Mitchell included several unsimulated sex scenes, on which he commented: "Some people ask me, 'Couldn't you have told the same story without the explicitness?'. They don't ask whether I could've done Hedwig without the songs. Why not be allowed to use every paint in the paintbox?"
Nymphomanic is expected to premiere in December.

Wow. Thanks for the info, grundle. I knew Shia wouldn't risk the "having sex for money" on his resume.

Von Trier does do weird digital manipulation for his films. Technically speaking that's fascinating to wonder how that'd look. Either way I was game for this film.

Melancholia was excellent, but I'm not much of a Von Trier fan. I'm not all that interested in this.

Lol..wasn't most of the hype because Shia and Uma were saying that the sex was unsimulated?? Bit of a bait and switch though not that I had any interest in seeing Shia porn.

Thurman was saying she was going to literally have sex in this film? When did she say that?

Lars Von Trier Will Debut The Hardcore Version Of ‘Nymphomaniac’ At Cannes
Lars Von Trier’s Nymphomaniac has already been anything but boring, as it seems to have more rumors surrounding it than most comic book movies. The latest of such whisperings is that Nymphomaniac will mark the controversial director’s return to the Cannes Film Festival in 2014 after he was declared an official outcast and “persona non grata” in 2011 for his ridiculous Nazi ramblings during the presser for Melancholia.
Naturally, Von Trier wants to announce his return with a bang (or 10) so while the film, starring Charlotte Gainsbourg, Stellan Skarsgard, Shia Labeouf and Uma Thurman, will be generally softcore in nature for its theatrical debut, he’s bringing the really hard stuff to Cannes, according to the Norwegian site Montages, which made for some great Google translation quotes.
There you have it, folks. If you want to see the hardcore version of Nymphomaniac but can’t get to Cannes next year, you’re going to have to smear yourself with some patience. But even if you do get to see it, what’s the big deal? You won’t actually be watching the actors have sex, because the bodies will belong to the porn doubles, and you’ll know that’s not Shia LaBeouf’s actual vagina.

Today we can bring even a news about the movie. Sources we deem reliable claims that the film – which will be set up in theaters in Denmark and Norway, respectively, in December and January – in all probability not the legendary hardcore version with pornographic sex scenes, but a milder softcore version. Hardcore version reportedly now “saved” for next year’s Cannes festival.
Those who have looked forward to seeing auteur go totally crazy with graphic depictions of sex must smear themselves with a touch more patience, and it is not inconceivable that hardcore version ultimately be experienced on DVD and Blu-ray – and If necessary Cinematheque – for those who are unable to see it in Cannes (seen that this plan is followed by the manufacturers and the festival – it is not yet published, and a lot can still change).

I'm only posting the female character posters, because some of those "o-faces" are actually hot. The men, not so much. In fact, if you get a chance to see Udo Kier's o-face, you will probably die of laughter. Women are hotter, so here they are:
If you wanna see the rest (the dudes) then head over to the official website and get your laugh on.
