A lesbian scene to recall forever

Susan Sarandon will never forget having sex with Catherine Deneuve, even if it was only on the screen. “I’m the only presenter to have actually slept with [her],’’ Sarandon told the black-tie audience at the Film Society of Lincoln Center’s tribute to the French icon Monday night. Her quip was followed by a scene from the 1983 vampire flick “The Hunger,’’ in which Deneuve and Sarandon have a sizzling lesbian sex scene, Post critic V.A. Musetto reports. Noting Deneuve’s well-publicized stand against the death penalty and for abortion rights, her actress daughter, Chiara Mastroianni, got a big laugh when she offered that “Rick Santorum would not be happy with my mom.’’ Martin Scorsese presented the ever-beautiful Deneuve, 68, with an award named for Charlie Chaplin, noting: “Catherine Deneuve seems to have been made for cinema, and cinema for her.’’
