"What was so good about the sex scenes I felt, and why maybe I felt quite comfortable, very comfortable doing them, was it always felt like it was really propelling the relationship forward - the story between Colin, who I play, and Ray, who Alex plays."
"I remember speaking to friends of mine about this story, about what was involved in it, and they were like, 'Oh wow. Harry. Wow.' I was like, 'Yeah, it's great!'"
"Of course, the headlines will focus largely on the sex and smut, as there's plenty of it. But Pillion is more than Skarsgård's genitals (it seems Lighton is a marketing expert, too) - it's an exceptional introduction to a filmmaker who has created an audacious addition to queer cinema."
Colin is a meek beta male who lives with his parents in suburban England, working as a traffic warden and singing in a barbershop quartet. On Christmas Eve a fumbled date leads him into the orbit of Ray, a chiseled, leather-clad biker gang member played by Alexander Skarsgård. Harry Melling said he felt very comfortable filming the explicit sex scenes because they propelled the relationship between Colin and Ray and served the story. Melling called the scenes brilliant and wonderful from an acting perspective. A PinkNews review praised Pillion as an audacious addition to queer cinema. Pillion opens in UK and Ireland cinemas from 28 November.
