Rachel Weisz in Confidence (2003)
The sex scene in question “is a massively important and beautiful scene,” Weisz, 48, added, noting that their director, Sebastián Lelio, “storyboarded it precisely a couple weeks before we shot it.”
Even the scene’s most memorable moment was choreographed by Lelio. “He made it clear everything he wanted: the wetness, me spitting in Rachel’s mouth, and [a focus on] Esti’s orgasm — my character [originally] had an orgasm, too, but I had to agree as a producer, even though it was a very good orgasm, it wasn’t as good for the story as Esti’s,” Weisz said. “In that moment, Esti’s orgasm is both a sexual release and a metaphorical release to freedom, it’s like she’s free to find out who she really is.”
Weisz also noted the differences between performing a sex scene with a male versus a female actor, saying, “normally as you do a sex scene it’s kind of freestyle. You get in the bed and in my case it’s always with men and you see what happens. It can come out a bit meaningless and generalized.”

Weisz loves the way the story pushes and pulls the audience. “The process of the whole film will be trying to work out who to trust and who not to trust,” she says. “People will think different things of Rachel. The story is equally weighted in both ways. It will divide people, and that’s what makes it such an unusual love story, so compelling and haunting. It asks how much you really ever know a person, and can your impressions of someone go completely, devastatingly wrong?”
Weisz added that the scene was empowering thanks to being so important and necessary to the movie’s narrative.
