Kate Winslet has spoken out about her regret for working with directors Woody Allen and Roman Polankski in a new interview with Vanity Fair.

Winslet worked with Roman Polankski on the 2011 adaptation of Yasmina Reza’s play God of Carnage, titled Carnage in theaters, while she appeared in Woody Allen's Wonder Wheel back in 2017.

She told Vanity Fair of her decision to work with those directors:

"It’s like, what the f**k was I doing working with Woody Allen and Roman Polanski? It’s unbelievable to me now how those men were held in such high regard, so widely in the film industry and for as long as they were. It’s f**king disgraceful.

"And I have to take responsibility for the fact that I worked with them both. I can’t turn back the clock. I’m grappling with those regrets but what do we have if we aren’t able to just be f**king truthful about all of it?"

She prefaced her comments on the two men by saying:

"Life is f**king short and I’d like to do my best when it comes to setting a decent example to younger women. We’re handing them a pretty f**ked up world, so I’d like to do my bit in having some proper integrity."

Later in the interview, Winslet revealed that during the filming of an intimate scene for the film Heavenly Creatures a member of the film crew said, "I guess it’s hard-d**ks day". The Titanic star said:

"This is a story I’ve never told, and I funnily enough remembered it when I was thinking about the things you might ask me in this interview. When I did an intimate scene on Heavenly Creatures, they were a lovely crew of people and they were so kind to myself and Melanie [Lynskey], and we never felt vulnerable, we never felt exposed.

"But one of the camera boys—as we’re lining up a shot, and we’re both in our little undies, naked from the waist up - I heard him as an aside say to someone else, 'Well, I guess it’s hard-d**ks day, boys.'"

The 44-year-old Academy Award winner continued:

"I was like, 'Uh', but I did this weird thing that you do when you’re younger of just going, 'Well, that wasn’t very nice, but we’d better not say anything.' And so I just carried on. I must have sort of buried it, because I had forgotten. But now it’s crystal clear.

"By the way, I really, genuinely could not fault for one second the experience I had on Heavenly Creatures overall, and I actually would almost hold it up as being my most treasured film experience, because it was just so lucky that I was given that part. But it’s just that one flicker of a moment."
