What Taylor-Johnson didn’t want was to normalise an abusive relationship, and she vehemently denied that the film does that. “It was a struggle and there were lots of onset tête-à-têtes, with me trying to bat it into the place.” She concedes, though, that the film’s nuance is difficult to pick up. The scene, as envisaged by lifelong feminist Taylor-Johnson, was supposed to empower Anastasia and “hold a mirror to darkness and come out with the power,” Taylor-Johnson has told The Sunday Times in a new interview. (Spoiler alert, for those who haven’t seen the second movie, they get back together almost instantly, because the heart wants what it wants). It’s the moment that leads Anastasia to flee Christian’s apartment and end their relationship, seemingly for good. Now the film’s director, artist and filmmaker Sam Taylor-Johnson, has spoken out for the first time about filming Fifty Shades of Grey’s most infamous sex scene, the climactic final coupling, that sees Christian Grey (Jamie Dornan) repeatedly and aggressively spank Anastasia Steele (Dakota Johnson) with a belt buckle.
