Ellen Page has told how she was left battered and bruised after making a movie with Drew Barrymore.

The Juno actress — who stars in Barrymore’s new flick Whip It – says she ended up in agony after Drew got over-excited and punched her during one of the action scenes.

“I got more bruised from being punched in the arm by Drew than from roller derby because we had a female fight club going on,” said Page.

“That kind of was going on through the whole movie and I had more bruises on my arms because when I watch the movie, you can tell in some of the beauty pageant scenes that there’s makeup covering bruises, and you just think it’s from derby. No, it’s from being punched by Drew. But we all, punched each other. Long hours make one a loopy gal.”

Barrymore recently revealed how bruised her leg while making the film, which marks her directorial debut.

“We were wrestling and rolling around on the track, one of our skates and both our body weights were on my thigh,” she said. “I had a bruise that was a foot long and a foot wide. My entire leg was covered.”
