Zandalee

Erika Anderson does not like to remember the filming of the most difficult sequences: "If I think back to the first day of working on Zandalee, I still get goose skin. It was the scene in which Nicolas Cage paints my naked body, the sun and the moon on my breasts and a river that flows down beyond the navel. And since Cage is an actor who loves improvisation, to show the domination of the male over the woman he put in such brutality and such participatory violence, that I was terrified, I felt really violated. We had to stop shooting and do it all again the next day. The rushes were pure pornography, they traumatized me."

During the body painting scene you can see Zandalee's earrings even though in the love scene before her earrings are off.

Original NC-17-rated version was cut to receive an R rating.
