Oscar winner Marisa Tomei is begging her parents to stay away from her new movie Before The Devil Knows You're Dead - because it features a doggie-style sex scene with co-star Philip Seymour Hoffman.

The actress insists the scene was very carefully and sensitively shot by director Sidney Lumet, but it's still likely to shock her family.

She says, "I'm grown up now, so I guess it'll really hit home. I spoke to mom about it the other day and I said, 'I don't know if you really want to come to this or if you want to see it.' I'd rather you didn't. She said, 'We heard already, we know about it.'"

Tomei admits she was initially worried about performing a graphic sex scene - but Lumet was a "class act."

She adds, "Having the Sidney factor balances it out; he's a mensch. I felt even more comfortable than I did just acting fully clothed. I seem to tap into these kinds of women, the ones you call 'slut'."
