Knightley happy to appear naked on-screen
Speaking at a press conference at the Edinburgh International Film Festival to promote the John Maybury directed film, Knightley said: "I always bare my breasts. It's not like it's only in this film!"
The 23-year-old also appeared naked in her last film, 'Atonement'.Referring to a scene in 'The Edge of Love' alongside Irish star Cillian Murphy, Knightley said: "It was very simple. It was a sex scene and I never like them when they've got bras on."
The film was written by Sharman Macdonald, Knightley's mother, who says her actress daughter was the inspiration for writing the period romance that also stars Siennna Miller and Matthew Rhys.
Knightley says that she was more uncomfortable with the fact that she had to sing in the movie, rather than having to appear naked.
She said: "I wasn't particularly pleased that Shar put singing into the script - in the first couple of takes I sounded like a pubescent boy."
'The Edge of Love' is showing nationwide from today.

Kim Cattrall: 'Beautiful People Don't Always Have Great Sex'
Kim Cattrall has admitted that like her Sex And The City character Samantha Jones, she enjoys more satisfying intercourse in her mature years because she was too ashamed of her body in younger days.
The 51-year old, who plays insatiable man-eater in the TV series and film, admitted that as soon as she stopped worrying about body image, her sexual conquests improved greatly.
And the actress is now convinced that the best-looking people don't always have the greatest sex.
She tells Cosmopolitan magazine: "Everyone expects great-looking guys and beautiful women to be having great sex. That's not true. I always had a sexy image on camera, but I wasn't having a fabulous sex life.
"Why? Because you can't be intimate with an image. Similarly, I remember going to bed with a really good-looking ladies' man, in the hope he'd teach me what I'd been missing. He didn't."
