And while he doesnвЂ™t regret the scene, he said he does feel guilty about it.Maria Schneider vs. He said he knew she hated him for life in that interview two years after her death. She stayed friends with Brando until his death in 2004, but she said that вЂњfor a while, we couldnвЂ™t talk about the movie.вЂќД«ertolucci, however, did not maintain a relationship with Schneider. Schneider, a relative unknown when she was cast in the film, said that the вЂњwhole circusвЂќ of suddenly being famous made her turn to drugs and she even attempted suicide a few times. Some, like actress Jenna Fischer, took a more extreme stance, writing that вЂњall copies of this film should be destroyed immediately.вЂќ As a woman, I am horrified, disgusted and enraged by it,вЂќ DuVernay wrote.Д¬hris Evans also expressed his rage and said it was вЂњbeyond disgusting,вЂќ while Anna Kendrick weighed in that she вЂњused to get eye-rollsвЂќ when she brought the incident up to people previously and that she was вЂњglad at least it will be taken seriously now.вЂќ вЂњAs a director, I can barely fathom this. ДЇilmmaker Ava DuVernay called it вЂњinexcusable.вЂќ To all the people that love this film- you're watching a 19yr old get raped by a 48yr old man.

But at the time, I didnвЂ™t know that.вЂќД«ut despite SchneiderвЂ™s past comments, the video interview with Bertolucci struck a chord this weekend as it circulated on social media that the director was admitting that the scene was non-consensual.ДЄctress Jessica Chastain wrote on Twitter that she felt вЂњsickвЂќ over the revelation that вЂњthe director planned her attack.вЂќ вЂњI should have called my agent or had my lawyer come to the set because you canвЂ™t force someone to do something that isnвЂ™t in the script. вЂњThey only told me about it before we had to film the scene, and I was so angry,вЂќ Schneider said. Schneider, who died in 2011 at age 58 after a lengthy illness, spoke a number of times about the scene between her, then aged 19, and Marlon Brando, then 48, even saying in a 2007 Daily Mail interview that she вЂњfelt a little rapedвЂќ by her co-star and director. A recently unearthedВ video interview (below) with Italian director Bernardo Bertolucci from 2013 has renewed interest, and outrage, over what happened to actress Maria Schneider on set during the infamous butter rape scene.Д«ertolucci said that neither he nor Marlon Brando told Schneider of their plans to use the stick of butter during the simulated rape scene вЂ“ a concept they came up with the morning of the shoot вЂ“ because he wanted her to react вЂњas a girl not as an actress.вЂќ He wanted her, he said, to feel вЂњthe rage and the humiliation.вЂќ вЂњLast Tango in ParisвЂќ is making headlines again 44 years after the controversial film came out. It turns out that the people saying that what appeared to be an onscreen rape turned out to be quite right, and the director confirms it. Now a new interview has surfaced with the director and itвЂ™s causing quite a new stir about the treatment of women in Hollywood. The only novelty was the idea of the butter.вЂќД«ernardo BertolucciвЂ™s вЂњLast Tango in ParisвЂќ was very controversial when it came out and is considered a classic today, but many people have commented about the treatment of actress Maria Schneider to many eye rolls. That is false!вЂќД«ertolucci added that вЂњMaria knew everything because she had read the script, where it was all described. вЂњSomebody thought, and thinks, that Maria had not been informed about the violence on her. вЂњWe wanted her spontaneous reaction to that improper use. вЂњI specified, but perhaps I was not clear, that I decided with Marlon Brando not to inform Maria that we would have used butter,вЂќ he noted. вЂњSeveral years ago at the CinematГЁque Francais someone asked me for details on the famous вЂњbutter scene.

In MondayвЂ™s statement, issued in Italian, Bertolucci said: вЂњI would like, for the last time, to clear up a ridiculous misunderstanding that continues to generate press reports about вЂњLast Tango in ParisвЂќ around the world.вЂќ The outrage hit after a 2013 interview (below) surfaced. вЂњLast Tango in ParisвЂќ director Bernardo Bertolucci has responded to the outrage that hit over the weekend about Marlon Brando and heВ conspiring against actress Maria Schneider in the controversial butter scene.
