“This Jenna Ortega/Martin Freeman film is so gross! So, so, so, so gross!”
An erotic thriller starring Wednesday actress Jenna Ortega and Sherlock actor Martin Freeman has finally landed on UK screens today.
Miller’s Girl was first screened earlier this year at the Palm Springs Film Festival, before being released in American cinemas.
The film’s content caused somewhat of a ruckus, in particular one intimate scene between 21-year-old Ortega and 52-year-old Freeman.
Ortega plays the role of 18-year-old Cairo Sweet, who ends up entangled in an “increasingly complex web” with her professor Jonathan Miller, played by Freeman.
One of the most controversial scenes to come from the film is where Jonathan and Cairo act out a scene from a story written by the student.
The racy scene shows Ortega’s character bending over a bed as Freeman runs his hand up her arm and leans against her.
Social media reaction to the clip was rather shocked.
“I feel very [weird] while watching this or it just me? Sorry but not sorry bruh,” one person wrote.
A second said: “[That] clip might be the worst thing I’ve ever seen.”
“I think I am finally done watching these age gap movies,” another put. “They are all gross, and I am tired of it. No amount of [Jenna or Martin] could save this one for me.”
While a fourth put: “This Jenna Ortega/Martin Freeman film is so gross! So, so, so, so gross!”
If you want to see the controversial clip for yourself (along with the rest of the film, of course), Miller’s Girl is available to buy to stream on Amazon Prime.
