Alicia Silverstone Reminisced About Sharing a Kiss With Her 30-Year-Old Co-star During the Filming of the Contentious '90s Movie, While Discussing Her Past Experiences
Alicia Silverstone, the actress who made her film debut in the 1993 thriller "The Crush," has recently been sharing her experiences on the set of the controversial film. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Silverstone reminisced about her role as Adrian Forrester, a teenage girl with a dangerous obsession, and her interactions with her co-star, Cary Elwes.
Silverstone played the character Nick Eliot, a writer in the film, opposite Elwes, who was 30 years old during the filming. The actress shared that she had to kiss the actor from "The Princess Bride" when she was little, but the moment was not as daunting as she had anticipated. In fact, Silverstone recalled a moment where she looked at Lisa Marie Kubikoff, Elwes' wife, while a picture was being taken, thinking, "This is my man."
The actress admitted that she felt somewhat possessive over Elwes when his wife took photos of them on set. After filming the kiss with Elwes, Silverstone, who was just 15 years old at the time, actually believed Cary Elwes was her boyfriend. This impression was further reinforced by Elwes' kindness and care towards her on set, which she described as "incredibly sweet."
Elwes, in turn, was a "really good big brother" to Silverstone during the filming of "The Crush." He took great care of her and their relationship was "big-brother-like" and "very sweet and kind." Silverstone expressed her enjoyment of playing her role in "The Crush," describing it as "fun."
The film, which has been described as controversial in recent years, has sparked a renewed interest in Silverstone's career and her experiences on the set.
