\u201cIt\u2019s humiliating. It\u2019s almost humiliating even when they\u2019re saying positive things,\u201d he told GQ Hype<\/a> in an interview published on Monday.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The pair married in 1998 after meeting on the set of the dystopian thriller \u201cGattaca,\u201d which came out in 1997.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n They separated in 2003, and Thurman filed for divorce one year later. The split was finalized in 2005.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Talking about their relationship, Hawke said there was a special type of enchantment that springs from an on-set romance.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Likening it to a game of Spin the Bottle, he said, \u201cThere\u2019s a certain intimacy to the work that we do. Imaginative intimacy. It\u2019s such a high. It feels dangerous and thrilling.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Those feelings weren\u2019t built to last long in the real world, however, according to Hawke.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u201cIt turns the temperature up in your life. It can be like falling in love at summer camp,\u201d he said. \u201cIt doesn\u2019t have any connection to the dailiness of real life. That\u2019s the danger of it.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The \u201cBefore Sunrise\u201d actor had previously talked about fame factoring into their divorce.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u201cTo be honest, it was an undue pressure on my marriage,\u201d he told Parade magazine in 2006.<\/a> \u201cI didn\u2019t like being famous when I was single, and what it did to my celebrity status to be married to another famous person was a huge pressure, one I didn\u2019t enjoy. And it had nothing to do with her. Nothing to do with her.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u201cI cannot participate in anything critical about my children\u2019s father,\u201d the \u201cKill Bill\u201d star said of Hawke, with whom she shares daughter Maya Hawke<\/a>, 27, and son Levon Hawke, 23.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n 20 Years Of<\/span>Free<\/span>Journalism<\/span><\/p>\n Your Support<\/span>Fuels<\/span>Our Mission<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Your Support<\/span>Fuels<\/span>Our Mission<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
