American actress Sharon Stone admitted that filming Basic Instinct in 1992 did not bring her much money, compared to Michael Douglas’s $ 14 million in royalties. She told about this to CBC News Canada.
According to the 63-year-old actress, she was “in limbo” when she “suddenly became famous, but she had no money.” Stone noted that she could not afford to buy a dress for the Oscars.
However, she did not name the amount of the fee. However, over the years it has been reported that the role of the writer Catherine Tramell Stone was paid $ 500,000. The role became a landmark in the career of an actress, although it caused her mixed feelings, and a duet with a movie star drove her into a stupor.
“I played a serial killer and I took it very, very seriously. I’ve watched a lot of films about serial killers and why they did what they did, ”Stone admitted.
The actress added that she was trying to understand what is going on with the minds of such people who break so much that serial murder for them .. “It’s like eating a sandwich.”
Sharon Stone said that because of this role she had nightmares, the actress walked in her sleep and woke up dressed in her car while driving.
“I was acting when I was at work, I felt like I was really doing the part. But when I went to bed, my subconscious took over, and during the day my condition was also out of order, ”said the movie star.
Recall that in March of this year, Sharon Stone presented her memoirs “The Beauty of Living Twice”, in which she spoke about her ascent up the career ladder, about her personal life, childhood in Pennsylvania and social activities.
