## Alessan said, " quote: ## Originally posted by SolGrundy What the hell is that all about? You don’t drop a bomb like “Maura Tierney did a nude scene” and then just casually say “I forget which film.” Which film, dammit? For the love of God, which film?!? Doc Hollywood, with Michael J. Fox. Her first scene in the movie has her emerging naked from a lake - viewed from the front. I don’t think that was Maura Tierney in that movie. Her name was Julie Warner. Cute kid! ---

Tom Cruise’s ex-wife, the older one with the huge breasts - damn, her name escapes me - Mimi something or other. She let them flop around quite a bit in “The Massuese” or something like that, a film about her…well, getting a massage from the Australian actor who was also in Breaker Morrant. I’ll see if I can be a little more vague next time. ---

Mimi Rogers, and it was **Full Body Massage** , with Bryan Brown. (PS: If you think that was a bit racy, try watching her in **The Rapture**.) ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Rainbowthief \* > \*\* > BTW, not that I get off on seeing Hollywood actresses nude (there’s hotter stuff elsewhere), but does anyone else find it _really_ annoying when an actress covers herself from her lover with a sheet after a sex scene? \*\* Yes. The guy is always uncovered to the waist while girl has her tits covered. Lots of sheets in strange shapes out there in Hollywood. ---

Marina Sirtis is also nude in two scenes in the abominable Faye Dunaway vehicle “The Wicked Lady”. It’s from Dunaway’s scenery-chewing days (of which the most famous exemplar is the gay cult classic “Mommie Dearest”), and Sirtis does her breast–er, BEST–to keep up with the frenetic activity of the leading lady. (Boy, does she lead.) To watch Sirtis in a scene in which she’s being flogged topless by a furious Dunaway before an outdoor crowd of thousands is to know just exactly what some people will do for a career in the movies. After that, I tipped my hat to Ms. Sirtis whenever I saw her–God knows she’s earned every single second of her success. (Even though you see quite a lot of the delectable future Counselor Troi in the movie, it’s really not worth seeing. OK, unless you’re into costumes and stuff. Oh, and unsanctioned semi-nude public floggings.) ---

Sigourney Weaver had a brief topless scene in “One Woman or Two”, but after all it was a French movie. And oh yeah, you get to hear Dr. Ruth Westheimer’s Germanic French, although she keeps 'em on. There a shot of a nude Jane Wyatt-yep, Spock’s mom-diving into a pond in “Lost Horizon” (1937). ---

Marina Sirtis was also nude in DEATH WISH III. How about Miranda Otto in LOVE SERENADE? ---

One of the Golden Girls – Rue MacLanahan, I think – had a nude sex scene in an early 60s sexploitation flick called “Five Minutes To Love” according to Joe Bob Briggs. According to Briggs, she was quite the hottie in those days. And who would dare dispute the word of Joe Bob Briggs? Not I. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Rainbowthief \* > \*\*Julie Delpy in **American Werewolf in Paris** because I’d never seen her nude in any of her European movies, so I was stunned to see her bare breasts in such a lightweight flick. Don’t forget **Killing Zoe**. Not a lightweight flick, and it wasn’t overly gratuitous, but I’m not a big fan of that particular scene. And Reese was indeed topless (and a perfect 10) in **Twlight**. Let’s see…which movie nudity surprised me? Hmmm… Sorry, can’t think of anything other than I have to go check out that Christina Ricci movie… ---

. . . then lots of toplessness in _Love Letters_, followed by a little toplessness in _Grandview U.S.A._, a butt shot in _Blue Steel_, some more breast view in _The Tailor of Panama_. ---

Although Jaime Lee doesn’t get completely nekked in “A Fish Called Wanda,” I do want to point out that her seduction scene with John Cleese is one of the funniest and sexiest I’ve seen in a long time. (And her earlier scene with Kevin Kline as Otto is also killer-funny, especially when he gets himself hot by deep-smelling his pits). ---
