Thora Birch’s Father Insists on Watching Her Sex Scene

The crew making “The Winter of Frozen Dreams” in upstate Schenectady was horrified when the father / manager of Thora Birch insisted on watching the filming of her sex scenes with Dean Winters.

Even though it’s industry practice to shoot sex scenes on a closed set, Jack Birch demanded to be present as his daughter and Winters simulated intercourse last week. “It was so wrong,” said one insider. “The director is saying, ‘Harder! Faster!’ and the father is giving Winters the thumbs up.”

Mandelbaum was about to shoot the first sex scene Monday when, “all of a sudden, the front door is being kicked in. Her father was threatening to kill the assistant directors. Then he threatens to pull her from the movie with three days of shooting left.”

Making matters worse, a problem with the focus on the camera necessitated 14 takes. “It was the most bizarre, perverse scene,” said our witness. “One girl on the crew broke down crying.”

Calls to reps for Birch and Winters were not returned. Millie Milka, of Em & Me Productions, told Page Six: “Thora Birch is a very talented young actress.” Asked if her father had forced his way onto the set for the sex scenes, Milka replied, “We have no comment on that. We just want to focus on the movie.”
