INTERVIEW - Josh O'Connor, Alec Secareanu on the sex scenes at Berlin Film Festival: 'Gods Own Country' Interviews at Berlinale Palast on February 15, 2017 in Berlin, Germany.
One of the many videos on Getty, hence the obnoxious water mark. The interviewer asks about the explicit sex scenes and Josh articulates why they were so committed to the script and those scenes, in particular.
A LOT of Josh hand porn here. He really does speak with his hands and they are the most graceful swans as he talks.
I love how, as Josh is speaking, he intermittently looks to Alec, as for confirmation. Josh is very confident and clear in his answer and Alec nods and contributes and I just love them together so much.
