Alison Brie says it was 'easy' shooting her 'steamy' make-out scene with Aubrey Plaza in her new film 'Spin Me Round'

• Alison Brie told Insider it was "easy" making out with Aubrey Plaza for a scene in their new film.

• "She's an incredible actress and she and I have really great chemistry," Brie said of Plaza.

• Brie plays a small-town restaurant manager who travels to Italy in the film, which premiered at the SXSW film festival.

Alison Brie said it was "easy" kissing Aubrey Plaza for a "steamy" make-out scene in their new film "Spin Me Round," which premiered at the SXSW film festival in Austin, Texas on March 12.

"I love working with Aubrey. She's an incredible actress and she and I have really great chemistry," Brie told Insider in a recent interview. "It was really easy to shoot a scene like that together."

Brie plays Amber, a small-town chain restaurant manager who travels to Italy for training in the film, directed by Jeff Baena, who is also Plaza's real-life husband. Upon arriving in Europe, Amber meets several possible love interests, including Nick (Alessandro Nivola), the owner of the restaurant chain where she works, and Nick's moody, intense assistant Kat (Plaza).

In one scene, Kat takes Amber out to an Italian nightclub, and then to dinner in an alley, where the two later share a passionate kiss.

"It was so fun. That was one of my favorite nights of shooting," Brie said of Amber's "steamy alleyway scene" with Kat.

"Those moments in the film for my character are sort of her most honest moments," Brie continued. "This is a character who's so out of touch with her instincts, and she's often feeling beholden to men and feeling like she has to act a certain way."

And when asked by Insider if it was awkward filming Kat and Amber's kiss in front of Plaza's husband Baena, Brie noted that they'd dealt with a similar situation while filming the 2017 comedy "The Little Hours," also directed by Baena and starring Plaza, Brie, and Brie's husband Dave Franco.

"When we shot the 'The Little Hours,' Aubrey had a sex scene with my husband, Dave, so it's come full circle, it's all in the family," Brie joked.
