The Oscar-winning actress was filming a striptease scene for 'P.S. I Love You' when co-star Gerard Butler's braces nearly caused a fatal accident.

Gerard - who plays Hilary's character's dying husband in the film - told Glamour magazine: "Hilary was fantastic, she has no ego and is really down to earth, so accomplished and talented. But I did try to kill her!

"It was with my braces. I cleverly managed to get the clip stuck behind me on this cupboard, the elastic was at full stretch, and I didn't realise. It unclipped itself smacked her forehead and she went down like she'd been shot.

"Two inches more and it could have taken her eye out, really, the thing was so sharp."

'P.S. I Love You' is a big screen adaptation of the best-selling book, which was written by Irish Prime Minister Bertie Ahern's daughter, Cecelia.

It tells the story of Holly Kennedy, played by Hilary, and her personal struggle to cope with the death of husband.

Before he dies, Gerry writes Holly 12 letters and instructs her to read one a month and signs off each note with 'P.S. I Love You'.

The movie also stars former 'Friends' actress Lisa Kudrow and 'Misery' star Kathy Bates.
