Watched intimate scene first time when I was 8: Cate Blanchett

Oscar-winning actress Cate Blanchett has recalled the first time she ever watched an intimate scene and that too with her parents.
The actress, 45, said she was around eight when she had gone to the cinema with her mother and father to watch the 1976 film "Silver Streak".
"He'd hurt himself and said 'where does it hurt', and he said 'here'. She started to kiss him and I could feel, I thought 'where is this going?," she said.
