Behind The Scenes Of Chris Messina’s Full Frontal Sundance Debut

Screen Shot 2015-01-29 at 9.12.23 AM“Well, I’m all about male nudity, which isn’t in movies enough. You know, there’s a lot of legal shit that goes into having people naked in a movie — there’s contracts involved and things like that — so obviously we didn’t do that because I didn’t know he was going to take his clothes off. So I wrote him afterward and I was like, ‘Well, I think I’m going to use it. What do you think about that?’ He said, ‘Well, send it to me. I don’t want to be just an extra in your movie who got naked.’ And I was like, ‘All right.’ So I sent him a Vimeo link, and he was like, ‘I love it! Use the cock!’”
