"Carey Mulligan delivers a slowed-down rendition of &amp;#039;New York, New York&amp;#039; for her new movie Shame. The Oscar-nominated British actress plays a troubled singer who turns her brother&amp;#039;s life on his head when she comes to stay at his apartment. In the extended clip below, Mulligan&amp;#039;s Sissy performs the Liza Minnelli song (from Martin Scorsese&amp;#039;s film New York New York, later recorded by Frank Sinatra) while her brother Brandon (Michael Fassbender) and his boss (James Badge Dale) look on:  &amp;gt; Carey Mulligan on who&amp;#039;s cooler: Ryan Gosling or Michael Fassbender? &amp;gt; Shame video: Michael Fassbender tries to score on the subway Discussing the making of the scene, Mulligan recently told Digital Spy: &amp;quot;The plan for that was always to sing live, not dub, and sing in one take. We did about 15 takes because there were takes where I was so nervous - you could hear my voice shaking - so they were useless. &amp;quot;We just worked our way into the feel of it, but then if I ran out of breath we had to scrap that take. [Director Steven McQueen] never wanted to touch any of it in post-production. &amp;quot;It was great for this part because she&amp;#039;s not a great singer, I&amp;#039;m not a great singer. It was more about her ability to hold a room and the message she was trying to convey to her brother. It&amp;#039;s so job specific, I&amp;#039;m not a singer! It was a fun experiment and one of the reasons why this role was so challenging.&amp;quot;  Shame is released in UK cinemas today (January 13). "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
