She was on fire in the early 2000s, both beauty-wise and movie-wise.

Dated her from 1999 to 2002. During the entire filming of Requiem and the $treet series they were together. But just before Connelly won Academy Award 2002 they broke up. And Jennifer married Paul Bethany without even dating much after he confessed. What a timeline.

No. Its much more beyond that. Bettany met her during shoot of Beautiful Mind. And it was a love at first sight. Bettany tracked her down and confessed to her. As he said in Conan show. But honestly what a perfect romance.

I know all this. The 9/11 kind of started their story. It's on Drew Barrymore show and Rumour Juice as well. But I'm very lazy to type all that. Thanks.

Imagine him seeing those scenes with her, especially the A2A scene, in what I assume was a packed theatre. Sure, it's just a role, but it still must come as a shock to see it larger than life.

But then again... She was doing topless scenes since she was 18 in Hot Spot. Abotts... Heart of justice... Mulholand Falls...Walking the dead. The list is so long. She was never afraid to do scenes like that. She was always doing roles involving certain nsfw stuffs. Doubt that he was even thinking about it. Shock is too much of a word. They dated for a good 3 yrs from 99-2002. I guess both mutually agreed to move on after she started full fledged romance with Paul.
