In 2023, Juliette Binoche said she was shocked during the scene where Nina is sleeping and Quentin and Paulot, played by Lambert Wilson and Wadeck Stanczak, put their hands between her legs. "One of the actors (I don't know which one, and in a way I don't want to know), took the liberty of touching my sex to wake me up. It was on the initiative of the director or the actor, in any case I remember being shocked. It was my first big role, I didn't say anything at the time, I still think about it. I should have roared!", the actress regretted.
Juliette Binoche revealed that she didn't know during filming that her whole back body was going to be naked in the poster. "I had done the shoot, but I had no idea what was going to be on the poster and I had no idea of the consequences. When the film came out and this poster was shown, some people just ripped it up because in the 1985 it was like seeing something that was not right and my family were kind of Catholic bourgeois and they really didn't react well," she said.
