The Ewan McGregor and Kelly scene - was it real - or just simulation? Looks real - though you'd presume its just good acting?

Probably fake. Either way, lucky Ewan!

It's not 'fake' it's called acting. By your definition, everything in the *beep* film is fake.

I think in the trivia section, IMDB mentions that she in her "naïvety" had invited her mother and brother to watch her making that scene. So, I don't think it was real. 

It would have been fake. However, I'm reminded of a review for another movie. "If they didn't actually have sex, they might as well have."

They weren't actually having sex because this wasn't a porn movie. Why would they actually be having sex?
