McGregor agreed to take a break from blockbusters such as Star Wars and The Island to play one half of a gay couple contemplating adopting a child. In one scene he argues with his boyfriend - played by Douglas Hodge, who appeared with McGregor in West End hit Guys And Dolls - over who would give up work.

"We broke all the rules," said director Edward Blum, a north Londoner himself. "Ewan came on board because he liked the script.

"Both himself and Douglas are brilliant actors and they were incredibly generous with their time." The comedy-also stars Polly Walker from BBC epic Rome, comedian Catherine Tate, Mark Strong, star of Our Friends In The North, and Andrew Lincoln of Teachers.

Each cast member was paid the Equity minimum rate for their appearance. Word of mouth quickly spread about the merits of the film's script, written by television writer Aschlin Ditta.

Blum, who has directed several television dramas including The Bill, said: "All the cast signed on during a two-week period when there was a rapid fire of actors saying yes.

"To attract really good actors you need really good parts and material and the individual stories really appealed to them.

"Once they knew they were going to be well looked after and the film was going to turn out well, it turned out to be quite easy."

Another factor helped. "A lot of the actors in the film live up there and know the area," said Blum. McGregor lives in Hampstead, Okonedo in West Hampstead.

Other tableaux in the film include a blind date gone wrong and separated spouses who get back together just before signing their decree absolute.

Blum believes the star of the film is the heath itself. "This city has beautiful parks but it is such a wonderful place," he said. "People talk about their lives, relationships and emotions on Hampstead Heath.

"You can see all of the major sights of the capital there and the film gives a wonderful idea of London."

� Scenes Of A Sexual Nature will be released in late October or early November.

착하기도 하지, 스크립트 보고 좋으니까 출연 시간에 따른 최저 임금(;;)만 받고 떡 싸인했구나. 근데 아랫기사와 더불어 읽어보면 Hodge씨한테 왠지 코가 꿰여서 같이 끌려 들어온것 같기도 하고... 그렇다 쳐도 워낙 다양한 연기 좋아하는 사람이니까 기꺼이 즐거운 마음으로 끌려들어왔음이 뻔하다. 런던, 아아 런던. Zone4는 런던으로 쳐주지도 않는걸까.... (고향사랑;)
