I mean, come on, it was like a mix of both," reports The Independent. "Weirdly, love scenes are awkward, because there are maybe 30, 50 people watching it," he continued, calling intimate scenes "oddly mechanical" and comparing them to choreographed fight or dance sequences.
Jake Gyllenhaal revealed that something called "the pillow technique" was used while filming the scenes in The Good Girl and he also disclosed whose idea that was.
