Melbourne, Nov 10 : A mark on Woody Allen’s hand drew much more attention than the lesbian-kissing scene on the sets of his film Vicky Cristina Barcelona.

In the film, Penelope Cruz has shared a sizzling on-screen kiss with co-actress Scarlett Johansson in a dark room.

However, while filming the scene, everyone of the sets, including director Allen got distracted—thanks to a suspicious mark that had mysteriously appeared on his hand.

"Everyone''s been talking about this kiss between me and Scarlett, but on the day all the attention was on Woody and the stain on his hand,'''' the Daily Telegraph quoted Cruz as saying.
