DISPLAYED REALITY

  • Reporter: Well, the film [Shame] is quite shocking, isn't it?
  • Steve McQueen: Not particularly. We all have sex, we all see what Michael and Carey [Mulligan] have, as far as being naked. Maybe because it's onscreen it's shocking, but that's maybe because it hasn't been portrayed on screen. What's unfamiliar, at least to me, is someone with a gun shooting someone in the head. I think we made a film that was responsible. I don't care -- NC-17? Brilliant! Fantastic! Bring it on! I take full responsibility for it. I think most violent films are not responsible, they are completely opposite of responsible. Film should reflect real life. Otherwise, what's the point? Just make superhero movies all the time.
  • Reporter: So what bothers you on the screen?
  • McQueen: A crappy movie.
  • - I'm on your side any day, Steve.
