"I’m Careful About Kissing In Movies" - Sandra Okunzuwa

“I was told that the individuals could just play with their lips and eyes, then moan to give the impression that they were doing something really intense. I have always abided by that, and I avoid any form of tongue contact or exchange of saliva, because I don’t know who that other person has been with. I don’t know their medical condition.

“Sometimes, people ask if I get emotionally attached to any actor that I kiss. The answer is actually ‘no’, because the place that one is filming in is not even so conducive. The air conditioner is off, and the lighting usually makes one feel hot.

Besides, there are a lot of people in the same room behind the camera watching, what one is doing. This is even as one is sweating and trying to memorise one’s lines.”
