KIM BASINGER AND MICKEY ROURKE
The cult drama “9 1/2 Weeks” about passionate and dependent love shocked the world more than 30 years ago, and the leading actors overnight won the status of the main sex symbols of Hollywood. According to the film crew, serious passions boiled in the relations of the actors not only on the screen but also in real life.
So Kim Basinger until the last refused to act in scenes with kisses – according to her, Mickey Rourke smelled unbearably of tobacco. The actor was also not happy with the choice of a screen partner: he considered Kim asexual and completely uninteresting in appearance.
