Rosario Dawson On 'Gimme Shelter,' Vanessa Hudgens

  • 10 years ago
Rosario Dawson plays June Bailey, a drug addict and mother to Vanessa Hudgens’ character, Apple, in her new film Gimme Shelter. Dawson and Hudgens get into some serious physical altercations. "I went back, pretty much every day of filming — I’d go home with a lot of bruises just because when you’re hitting against things, you know, like I remember in the very first scene where I’m kind of attacking her through a phone booth and you’re trying to be careful not to break the glass and you’re hitting against the other side but it’s just a weird thing, you get really caught up in the motion and energy of it and even when you’re trying not to hit full force and trying to be gentle, it doesn’t matter, just doing it, take after take after take, after a while you’re just going to bruise."
