Cameron Diaz’s Sex Scenes Were Guarded

Cameron DiazCameron Diaz made sure her love scenes for a new movie were well-concealed from the eyes of the public as it was taking place.

The actress shot a sex scene with actor Javier Bardem for The Counselor on the bonnet of a yellow Ferrari at Stoke Park golf course, Buckinghamshire, United Kingdom. And an ex-SAS squad and dog unit were apparently carefully positioned around the course and in the trees to ensure passers-by or fans could see what was going on. Modesty screens were also put up around the set for the midnight shoot on Tuesday.

"It was like a military operation. Producers had thought of everything to stop any intruders possibly getting a glimpse," a source told The Sun.

Cameron also beds a cheetah in her new film. She plays a character who keeps one of the big cats as a pet and had to tame the beast she was to act alongside "When Cameron first started working with the cheetah it was strutting about like it owned the place. But now she's wearing the trousers. It has taken a shine to her, which is good because they've had to shoot a number of scenes together, including a set-up where they shared a bed," a insider said.

and Cameron Diaz might want to think twice before reuniting for another film.

The stars of the box office disappointment Knight and Day are now being reminded of another title from their past.

According to a poll conducted by LoveFilm, 2001’s Vanilla Sky is considered the most confusing movie ever made. The surreal Cameron Crowe film - also starring Cruise’s ex-girlfriend - centered on a wealthy publishing heir (Cruise) who suffers from a series of strange hallucinations after a car accident.

David Lynch’s Mulholland Drive ranked second in the poll while Donnie Darko, directed by Richard Kelly, placed third.

Box Office Breakdown: Dreamy Numbers for Inception

Inception

Warner Bros. might have had difficulty marketing , but strong word of mouth, stunning visuals and Christopher Nolan’s reputation were enough to sell the film. The $160 million thriller opened to $62.8 million in weekend receipts, placing the film on top of all original projects out so far this summer. Inception also bested Leonardo DiCaprio’s previous debuts (including Shutter Island‘s $41.1 million) and Nolan’s earlier titles (outside of The Dark Knight).

, on the other hand, had a harder time conjuring up interest. The Disney remake grossed only $17.6 million since Friday ($24.7 million since Wednesday). That’s a considerable disappointment given the $150 million price tag, but overseas dollars will likely help the studio.

Meanwhile, a film that placed #12 on this week’s chart actually outperformed both Inception and Apprentice. , starring Annette Bening and Julianne Moore, had the best per screen average ($28,009) of any movie currently in theaters.
