British actresses can't be sexy, they're too inhibited says Hollywood producer


They may be some of the most sought after actresses in Hollwood.
But according to one of Tinseltown's most respected  producers British starlets like Gemma Arterton,  , Keira Knightley and Rebecca Hall can't do sexy because they're just too inhibited. 
Paul Breuls, producer of film the Devil's Double - the recent biopic of Saddam Hussein's sadistic eldest son Uday - reckons when it comes to jaw-dropping sex appeal our girls just don't make the grade.

Breuls had considered Brits, as well as some of Hollwood's most celebrated sirens, for the role of Sarrab - Uday's intensely sexual concubine and the film's leading female role.  
But he decided they simply weren't sexy enough and instead plumped for French actress Ludivine Sagnier.
Discussing the controversial  choice, he said: 'The role is very demanding sexually and it’s difficult to find actresses who are willing to take that leap into the sexual unknown, especially in the States or in England.
'Ludivine Sagnier is someone who made our first short list because she’s done some of the most sensual work in French film. She’s uninhibited, and she’s an excellent actress to boot.'

Few who've seen her performance could argue that Sagnier, who went topless in the 2003 thriller Swimmin Pool, lacks on-screen sex appeal.
But that hasn't stopped some within the rushing to the defence of Britain's finest.
Director Michael Winner, who has worked with some of the biggest names on both sides of channel includng Joan Collins, hayley Mills, Faye Dunnaway and Lauren Bacall, argues that British starlets are far from coy.
He told the Indendent: 'I've come across some some actresses who are inhibited but I don't think British ones are particularly coy.
'Quite the contrary, I've had to persuade them to keep their clothes on. I had Stephanie Beacham do lover scenes with Marlon Brando and she aquitted herself very well.'
