In 1994, one disgusting moment nearly ruined Kate Winslet’s “most treasured film experience”

Kate Winslet has recalled an inappropriate sexual comment made by a crew member while filming an intimate scene for *Heavenly Creatures* in 1994. She was 17 and said the remark made her uncomfortable, even though she valued the film and described making it as her “most treasured film experience”.

Winslet said the crew had otherwise treated her and co-star Melanie Lynskey kindly, and neither felt exposed during filming. At the time, she did not challenge the comment, saying she thought it was simply what men said; she later reflected that such words can be a form of harassment, especially when spoken in a workplace with a clear power imbalance.
