Actor Ashley Benson has revealed that she did not get paid for her 2013 film "Spring Breakers".

The 28-year-old actor told InStyle magazine that she is happy to work for free if she gets to collaborate with acclaimed directors.

"One (film) that I didn't get paid for really, at all was 'Spring Breakers', which turned out to be one of my favourite projects I've ever done," Benson said.

"In the indie film world, I would rather get paid (next to) nothing to work with someone like Harmony Korine and have an amazing experience and the outcome be an incredible film I'm really proud of," she added.

In Korine's "Spring Breakers", Benson starred alongside Vanessa Hudgens, Selena Gomez, Rachel Korine and James Franco.

The film, which is about four college girls who rob a bank to pay for a spring break trip to Florida, made over USD 30 million at the box office on its USD 5 million budget.
