Kate Beckinsale's unprotected movie

Jan 10, 2009, 4:00 GMT

Kate Beckinsale refused to wear protective clothing in her latest movie. The actress ignored director Rod Lurie's pleas to don a padded costume for her violent scenes in 'Nothing But the Truth', as she thought it might hamper her performance.She is quoted by National Enquirer magazine as saying: "I'm always doing movies where I'm getting beaten up, thrown down stairs, hit with blunt objects and even set on fire. Rod was in a terrible panic, but I pulled off the scenes with just a few bumps and bruises."The 35-year-old actress - who has previously portrayed a prison inmate - recently claimed she could "handle herself" behind bars.She said: "It's weird because I do feel like I have done more of my fair share of time. I did the prison thing in 'Brokedown Palace', I've done the Philippines prison. "Actually I think I could probably handle myself in a real prison - if I had something heavy to put in my sock!"Kate's father Richard starred in hit UK TV prison show 'Porridge' and the actress believes she may have inherited his love of playing a villain.She is quoted as saying: "My father's television show back home in England was set entirely in a prison. There's obviously a theme there."
