Alicia Vikander recently spoke candidly about how the practice of shooting intimate sequences has evolved over the years—and for the better—in an interview with Harper’s Bazaar.
Alicia Vikander described her experience, saying, that

she continued “I’ve been in situations that were not fine, where I didn’t feel I was protected,” she said. “Everyone was busy doing their own thing and, in the middle, you have an actor who sits there n-k-d for a couple of hours,”
