told her to have sex with Baldwin during filming of their 1993 movie “Sliver” to improve his lousy screen performance.But the ugly fight goes back more than 30 years.During the fraught production of the sexually charged thriller, the pair quickly developed an antipathy for one another.“Thin lips, OK breath,” Baldwin, Alec Baldwin’s brother, reportedly said after shooting a love scene with the “Basic Instinct” star, according to Entertainment Weekly.The hatred was mutual.“He’s a boy,” Stone complained, according to “Sliver” screenwriter Joe Eszterhas in his book “American Rhapsody.” “Give me a man. Give me Alec.
I’d let Alec throw me over a table anytime.”Eszterhas claimed Stone would “wipe her mouth after kissing him or rinse it with mouthwash. She bit his tongue during a kiss.”Yet he also wrote that Stone wanted Baldwin to fall for her “so hard, he won’t know what hit him.”Stone released a statement at the time saying, “I think it’s hilarious.
I knew [Joe] was funny, but I didn’t think he could write comedy.”She clarified the situation in a 2021 interview with the New Yorker, insisting that Baldwin misconstrued her innocent desire to rehearse as sexual advances.“When I would say to him, ‘Why don’t you come to my trailer and we’ll work on the scenes,’ I don’t think he realized that I really wanted to work on the scenes,” Stone told the outlet. “They were pushing alternative realities very hard on both of us.”But Eszterhas quoted “Sliver” director Phillip Noyce in his 2007 book “The Devil’s Guide to Hollywood” as saying that Stone was fuming over Baldwin being cast in the film.“Billy Baldwin knew that Sharon Stone hadn’t wanted him in ‘Sliver,’ and their relationship was always tense,” Noyce said.
