'Contagion's' Paltrow a 'Trooper' for Surgery Scene

Matt Damon and director Steven Soderbergh are giving Gwyneth Paltrow credit for that grisly "Contagion" scene by which her mental abilities are dissected.Sonderbergh told reporters in a press conference for that virus thriller (via "USA Today") that Paltrow donned an epidermis-like tissue "that appeared as if pizza on a single finish with no sauce" along with a hairpiece for that scene.Before filming, Paltrow -- who's patient zero -- asked the movie's talking to medical examiner about how exactly her face need to look throughout the grisly procedure."The medical examiner informed her that her tongue could be extruded just a little which she'd possess a yellow-colored fluid being released of her nose," stated Soderbergh. "[Gwyneth] wanted so that it is right.InchPaltrow remained "stock still" for 40 minutes because they shot the scene, Sonderberg stated."Gwyneth is really a trooper," he added. "I believe she'd a sense this would be some kind of strange legendary image in some way.""And she or he was right," joked Damon."There really is not a vain part within the cast," added Damon.This is not the very first time Paltrow has lost her mind inside a movie. For 1995's "Se7en," she was beheaded and her on-screen partner Kaira Pitt received it inside a box."Contagion" won this area office war a few days ago with $23.a million. The Hollywood Reporter
