Anecdotes
Carice Van Houten said working on Game of Thrones (2011) turned her off of filming nude scenes and refuses to do them anymore, especially in the wake of the #MeToo movement. She told Insider that she's brought the lesson she learned to her other projects, including Instinct. She said she and director Halina Reijn made it into a dogma where they are done with nudity. "We don't need to show nudity to create intimacy, we don't need to see breasts."

Who Rapes Whom?

Starring Carice van Houten (Melisandre on the HBO television series "Game of Thrones") and Marwan Kenzari (Jafar on the 2019 "Aladdin"), "Instinct" has its strengths and weaknesses. The film boasts powerful storyline delving into the complexities of human nature, the dynamics of relationships, and intense drama. Despite the fact that it sometimes resorts to heavy-handed symbolism, leaving some aspects feeling underdeveloped, it raises serious questions about identity and desire. The absence of genuinely honest characters, including a lack of trust even in therapists, is what distinguishes this film, elevating it above its minor flaws.
