Emily Blunt says sets on her new movie were so realistic they made her “heave”.
The ‘Young Victoria’ actress plays a crime scene cleaner in independent comedy ‘Sunshine Cleaning’ and admits the stench while filming some scenes almost overpowered her.
She said: “Oh, they were realistic. Particularly the trailer park one – that was gag-making. We walked on set and I felt myself heave, as it really did smell.
“And we had a fly wrangler on set. He breathes smoke on them, and they get a bit hazy and are not quite so sprightly – I don’t know how he does it.”To prepare for the movie, Emily and her co-star Amy Adams became “obsessed” with watching crime shows on TV -but admits their plan to get used to the grisly setting was unsuccessful.
She added to the New York Daily News newspaper: “Amy and I are obsessed with the crime channel, with its weird programmes on police busting in on villains. But it didn’t really help when it came to the gore and dealing with the decomposition. So a guy came in who did it for a living to talk to us. He was very clinical and showed us what he does. He relished showing us some of the horrific pictures and hearing us screeching at them.”
