 Trivia from Basic Instinct (1992)
1
According to initial storyboards of the love scene between Nick and Catherine in Catherine's apartment, the scene would have been even longer and more explicit than the version finally shot and included in the movie. The stars and director thought the sexual acrobatics was too long and extreme to be believed and the scene was scaled back to the existing version.

Paul Verhoeven initally fought for a lesbian love scene to be added to the script over the objection of Joe Eszterhas, who thought such scene was gratuitous. Verhoeven eventually agreed with Eszterhas and apologized to him for forcing the issue.
