'Trance' torture scenes affected me: James McAvoy

Actor James McAvoy has spoken about filming the torture scenes in his new movie "Trance", saying the shots affected him tremendously.
The Danny Boyle-directed film centres around crooked art auctioneer Simon (McAvoy), who has hidden a priceless painting but forgotten its location after suffering amnesia. A hypnotherapist then attempts to tease the truth out of his mind, reported Digital Spy.
"It did affect me a little bit. The torture stuff got to me, actually. It never usually does. I'm usually fine with all that stuff, and love being covered in blood and having my face bashed in, but I felt quite bad about myself for a couple of days on this one.

"It starts as an art heist like Thomas Crown Affair, but it's not really about that. It's noir-ish at times. There's an essential idea of crime, but it's not really about money. Rosario Dawson's character at one point behaves like a femme fatale, but it's not really the icy blonde that you know - it's a much more damaged and emotional story than that, ultimately," he said.
