Even before he shot Kill Your Darlings, Daniel Radcliffe was talking about how he’d been ordered by director John Krokidas to go all natural downstairs. He said, “It might have a bit of nudity and he [Krokidas] said, ‘Just to let you know, if you’re getting naked, no landscaping of any kind. This is the 1940s.’
“I’m pretty much there anyway, mate! Not a huge amount of maintenance going on.” He did add though, “I mean, there’s a little bit, obviously, for courtesy.”
Now the director has backed that up, talking about it again in an interview with DailyXtra to coincide with the film’s screening at TIFF, and that he did indeed telling him that pubes were compulsory as that’s what men were like back then!
Radcliffe himself also had something to say about the gay sex scene in an interview with MTV, telling them “It’s interesting that it’s deemed shocking. For me, there’s something very strange about that because we see straight sex scenes all the time. We’ve seen gay sex scenes before. I don’t know why a gay sex scene should be any more shocking than a straight sex scene. Or both of them are equally un-shocking.”
