American Hustle:
The scene in which Jennifer Lawrence’s character confronts her husband’s mistress is iconic. Suddenly, Rosalyn impulsively kisses Sydney before leaning back and laughing bitterly. Director David O. Russell revealed that the two actresses came up with this kiss together- he said “The kiss was something that was pitched, and I didn’t know how it would happen.” He also admitted that there were mixed reactions to the film from critics because of this scene specifically due to its emotional nature and unexpected climax: “Some people thought it was too much so we went back a second time for an R rating”. The result? A profound cinematic moment made possible by both J-Law’s excellent acting skills as well as Amy Adams’.
