Chris Evans Says Marlon Brando Should Have Been Jailed for 'Last Tango in Paris' Rape Scene
Chris Evans is disgusted and enraged by the revelation that the late actress Maria Schneider was raped on camera without consent for a scene in the 1972 movie Last Tango in Paris.
The movie’s director, Bernardo Bertolucci, says that he and actor Marlon Brando conspired to shoot the scene and get Maria‘s “reaction as a girl, not as an actress.”
“Wow. I will never look at this film, Bertolucci or Brando the same way again. This is beyond disgusting. I feel rage,” Chris tweeted after reading the story.
Anna Kendrick also got involved in the conversation and she said she’s been telling people about this for years, but no one seemed to care before.

@colliderfrosty @ChrisEvans Ms Schneider stated this several years ago. I used to get eye-rolls when I brought it up to people (aka dudes).

@ChrisEvans @colliderfrosty I don't doubt it. It wasn't treated like a big story then(shocker). Glad at least it will be taken seriously now
