Kate Winslet: my weird sex scenes with Leonardo DiCaprio
Actress Kate Winslet's sex scenes with Leonard DiCaprio in new film Revolutionary Road were more than a little awkward - because her husband Sam Mendes was the director.

"I just kept saying, 'This is too... weird,'" said Winslet, 32. "And Leo was like, 'Oh, get over it.' And I'm going, 'Yeah, a little reminder: You're my best friend. He's my husband. Ths is a bit weird."

Mendes, who also directed American Beauty and Road to Perdition, agreed: "I will admit it was quite bizarre to direct my wife in how to make love. But it's difficult whether you're married to a person or not."

It has been 11 years since Winslet and DiCaprio co-starred in the Oscar-winning blockbuster Titanic, and Winslet said a spark remains between them.

She told Entertainment Weekly: "I hadn't realized how much my chemistry with him since Titanic would still stick. It's great to discover we can just slip right into it, like muscle memory."

They play suburban couple Frank and April Wheeler in Revolutionary Road, based on Richard Yates' 1961 novel. It is slated for release in December, just in time for Oscar consideration.

"We knew that if we were going to do something again, it had to be something big and emotional," Winslet said. "Revolutionary Road is so painful and beautiful to read, simply because of the brutality of the honesty that Frank and April end up experiencing together."

Winslet was eager to bring DiCaprio on board, and set up a sneaky way to do it - she arranged a meeting with the 33-year-old actor in March 2007, but sent Mendes in her place.

"Leo and I have such a history together and I couldn't imagine not being able to apply that to this story and these characters," she said. "So I played this very clever cat-and-mouse game to get my husband and then my best friend involved."
