Joel Christie, The Daily Telegraph, reports
For a town known for being little more than a quiet fishing village, Seal Rocks has suddenly got a whole lot steamier.
The picturesque mid-north coast town was again in lights, camera, action mode yesterday amid the second week of shooting for controversial film drama The Grandmothers, with leading ladies Naomi Watts and Forrest Gump actress Robin Wright turning heads during a frolic in the surf with their younger co-stars.
It's the best look yet at a story that is set to polarise - the pair playing best friends who unwittingly start sleeping with each others sons, played by Xavier Samuel (who falls for Wright) and James Frecheville (who falls for Watts).
"It's a confronting story but something a lot of women will be able to relate to, even if that's just on an extremely tiny level," a set source said.
"It's that classic case of giving in to your emotions."
The first English-language film by French director Anne Fontaine, who is renowned for Hollywood hit Coco avant Chanel, the flick is scheduled to continue filming for the next six weeks in a production estimated to inject over $1 million into the local economy.
