Erotic romance novel "Fifty Shades of Grey" will hit cinemas in month's time and the the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) has given the film an R rating.
The film based n the books of E.L. James' best selling trilogy was given then rating due to "For strong sexual content including dialogue, some unusual behavior and graphic nudity, and for language," reported Variety.
Dakota Johnson and Jamie Dornan star opposite each other as Ana Steele and Christian Grey. The unlikely pair develop a kinky relationship due to the BDSM fetishes of Grey, a mysterious billionaire.
Northern Irish actor Jamie Dornan recently provided British GQ with some telling details about the movie's sex scenes. He admitted doing some extreme first-hand research to prepare for the role and what he found was rather entertaining.
"In the course of researching this character, I have seen the reality very closely. I can tell you from an alarmingly first-hand perspective it's not altogether sexy. But I've been in a dungeon with a lukewarm beer while a dominant has had some fun with his submissive and it was very playful and jovial and not at all dark and serious. There was a lot of laughter..." recalled Dornan.
The actor also discussed his personal thoughts with regards to filming the movie's numerous sex scenes. "Your dignity is intact as much as it's all tucked away in a little flesh-colored bag," quoted the magazine of the actor for its February issue.
"As a guy, you put all your essentials in a little bag and you tie it up like a little bag of grapes and it's tucked away. It's quite a peculiar thing to do every day," confessed the Hollywood celebrity.
Sexual Acrobatics
In a separate interview with Today, the flick's lead co-stars said the actual filming process isn't as sexy as most people believe it to be.
"The reality of it," said 32-year-old Dornan, "is that there's a burly man you don't know very well three feet from your face...which isn't how you usually have sex-[not] me, anyway."
Johnson, 24, chimed in that the focus was more on the visual effects. Describing the moments as "more of like a dance. It's like acrobatics," the brunette called it "sexual aerobics."
The Sam Taylor-Johnson directed movie also stars Rita Ora, Luke Grimes, Jennifer Ehle, Marcia Gay Harden and Max Martini.
The highly anticipated film arrives in theaters Feb. 13, just in time for Valentine's Day.
