“You put your hand here and then we’re going to go kiss, kiss, and then we’re going to go down.”
in France, the French press said, ‘Well, in France we all have mistresses. This is not a big deal here,’” Douglas recalled. But the movie turned out to be a huge hit in France. “Every French wife took her husband to that movie and said, ‘Sit down here. Just want you to know this is what could happen.’”
Douglas is understandably proud of the fact that many of his female co-stars gave some of their best performances opposite him in these movies. He believes it’s because these were juicy parts that let them be villains. He remembered Louise Fletcher’s Oscar-winning performance as Nurse Ratched in, which he produced but didn’t appear in. “Nurse Ratched was a great part, but it was the villain. And we had five major actresses turn the part down. They didn’t want to do it.
Douglas admitted that he never really felt comfortable in leading-man roles. In this particular aspect, he saw a similarity between his career and his father’s. “My father started off playing sensitive-young-man roles. It wasn’t until his sixth movie,, in 1950, in which he played a boxer who fought his way to the top and didn’t care what happened. It was a much different role for him. I look back, and I sort of started my career playing a sensitive young man.
For the record, Douglas still considers Stone a friend and said that the director’s involvement was one of the reasons he agreed to do 2010’s, despite his not being much of a sequel guy at the time. What was the other reason? “Probably greed … It was not the most inspired decision. We never quite got the script right.”
