There's being environmentally friendly, and then there's being so preoccupied with keeping the planet safe that one becomes irresponsible and ends up causing harm while looking to do good, nobody seems to have ever told director Darren Aronofsky.

Long story short, media reports say that, while working with said director on “Noah,” Emma Watson found herself drinking three-month-old water.

This happened not because the actress has a sweet tooth for stagnant water, but because director Darren Aronofsky had banned actors and staff from bringing plastic water bottles on set.

According to Ecorazzi, this ban was set in place in an attempt to make the movie more environmentally friendly. Its unintended result, however, was that it got Emma Watson terribly sick.

“I was so tired one morning I picked up a mug from my trailer and drank some stagnant water that had been there for the duration. I was so ill,” the actress told the press in a recent interview.

By the looks of it, the fact that she had to drink stagnant water because of him is not the only bone that Emma Watson has to pick with director Darren Aronofsky. On the contrary, there are several other problems that she has recently complained about.
