Keanu Reeves: Henry's Crime makes people want to have sex

Keanu Reeves says people tell him his new film makes them want to have sex.

Despite the actor's 'Henry's Crime' not having graphic or sexual content, he says the storyline has a captivating effect on people, which makes them want to be physically intimate with one another.

Keanu, 46, said: "I've had a couple of people come out after it and say, 'Wow, we saw your film and we just wanna go have sex now.' Maybe it just makes you wanna hold someone close. Of all the comments I've heard, that's my favourite."

He jokingly added that maybe using such a line may help with the film's marketing, adding: "Yeah, watch Henry's Crime! Guaranteed sex! If your girl doesn't put out after this, we'll give you half your money back!'"

'Henry's Dream' is about a man of little ambition who is sent to prison for a bank robbery he didn't commit.

Upon his release to rob the bank anyway and describing his view of his character, he told the Guardian newspaper: "Henry has no dream. He's gone along with his life. I feel that's a real story. Sometimes we just go along with things. With him, it stops being OK, and when he decides to rob the bank, he starts to live. It's preposterous, but hopefully it's delightful, too."

'Henry's Crime' is in cinemas from today (14.01.11).
