Jennifer Lopez answered questions about the most impactful movies in her life on her Office Romance costar Brett Goldstein's podcast Films to Be Buried With
The 1993 crime romance True Romance was her pick for a film that was problematically arousing
Listing cast members including Christian Slater, Patricia Arquette, Val Kilmer and Gary Oldman, Lopez quipped she "would have had sex with any one of them"
Jennifer Lopez has a fun answer to the question of what film she finds the most problematically sexy.
On the June 10 episode of Brett Goldstein's Brett Goldstein's podcast Films to Be Buried With, focused on cinema, the Ted Lasso star asked Lopez, 56, to choose a film in what he calls the "troubling boner" category of his questions: "A film you found arousing that you weren't sure you should."
The actress-musician, laughing, proceeded to gush about the star-studded 1993 crime thriller True Romance. "There are all these very seedy characters in the movie," she said, running down the list.
"You have Christian Slater, who works in this record store and has hallucinations of Elvis — who's played by Val Kilmer. And then you have Patricia Arquette, who couldn't be better as the hooker with the heart of gold, the sweetest."

The Tony Scott-directed, Quentin Tarantino-written True Romance also featured Dennis Hopper, Samuel L. Jackson, Christopher Walken, Gary Oldman and, as Lopez said, "James Gandolfini as a hitman" and "Brad Pitt as a stoner."
"I would have had sex with any one of them!" exclaimed the Hustlers star. "That is the truth. Which says a lot about me, but maybe like the dark side of me. But all of them were so incredibly f---ing good in this movie."

Yes, that sexiness extends to Oldman's menacing pimp Drexl Spivey. "The gold teeth," quipped Lopez. "The dreads!"
Even after Arquette's character is beat up and bruised, "she's still sexy," she added. "You still wanna kinda kiss her on the lips. You know what I mean? It's crazy, that movie."
