[QUOTE=Walloon] I’ve seen _The Exorcist_ twice, and never saw any naked geezers. Are you sure you’re not thinking of one of the sequels? [/QUOTE] Or **Rosemary’s Baby**? ---

[QUOTE=Frylock] There’s Uma boob in Adventures of Baron von Munchausen? [/QUOTE] I was surprised too. However, she’s recreating the Venus-in-a-Clamshell (me? of course I know art!) classical work, so I guess that made it OK. Oh, and for the one who asked about Reese Witherspoon, it was in “Twilight”. -Joe, nudity knowledge equal to John Dorian ---

[QUOTE=Plastic Soul] **Meryl Streep** in The Bridges of Madison County. [/QUOTE] Also a one-second, one-boob glimpse in _Silkwood_ when she flashes this guy who’s annoying her. ---

Keitel was FFN in _The Piano_, too. Nice set of tools on display. Not a whole lot of length, but looked like there might be some impressive girth if you caught him in action. Snipped, as one would expect, as he’s Jewish. ---

[QUOTE=sweepkick] Wait… are they not real, not spectacular, or both? [/QUOTE] Undeniably real. And, were she black instead of white, she’d fit right in a crowd scene in a 60’s National Geographic, if you know what I mean. -Joe ---

Derek de Lint went full-frontal for **Stealing Heaven** (along with Kim Thomson). He wasn’t completely flaccid, either. 🙂 The ff male nudes in **A Room With a View** were Julian Sands [yowza!] and Simon Callow; Rupert Graves also went starkers but I don’t think we ever see him ff. Douglas Henshaw showed the full monty in **Angels and Insects** (along with Patsy Kensit). Wearing a top but no bottom, Julianne Moore had a very extended, excruciating argument scene with her husband in **Short Cuts**. In another scene that seemingly lasts forever, Elizabeth McGovern argues with lawyers while wearing a bottom but no top, in **Ragtime**. And now, time for something completely different – Monty Python’s Terry Jones flashed his ass every time he played his “lunatic piano player in the fields” guy. ---

Oh, and no nudity thread with Helen Mirren would be complete without mentioning **Caligula**. She took a circle-jerk bath in that one, for chrissakes! Malcolm McDowell and John Gielgud also went nude in that, IIRC, but I don’t remember if either went revealingly ff. [QUOTE=Struan] Still, has anyone seen Castaway ? Nude Amanda Donohue! Nude Oliver Reed! Cognitive dissonance! [/QUOTE] Yep, and it was uncomfortably real, unerotic, and unpleasant to watch. To paraphrase a Woody Allen character, Reed’s character was using nudity to express hostility. ---

[QUOTE=Fiver] He did full frontal in _The Pillow Book_ too. [/QUOTE] Ewan McGregor is ALWAYS going naked, except in Star Wars. It’s hard to not see his Lil’ Ewan, honestly. I spent **About Schmidt** waiting cringingly for nude Kathy Bates, and when I saw it I thought she was quite a handsome naked older bigger girl. The BF agreed, if that means anything to you. (But I don’t think he’d tell anybody that but me.) ---

I’m pretty sure that Tim Robbins had a scene in The Player where you could see his dick but it may have been all covered in mud. He was either getting into or out of a mud bath. I just remember having a good impression. ---

[QUOTE=jayjay] I think Reese Witherspoon was topless in the video for _Rio_ by Duran Duran… [/QUOTE] 😃 **Beware of Doub** , I’m not seeing the same prejudices you are. It’s certainly still unusual for men to do nude scenes, especially full frontal nudity. And actually, I do think it’s a bit more daring: even when women appear completely nude onscreen, their genitals don’t usually show, and the size of a women’s breasts is hardly a secret even when they’re wearing clothes. When a man does a full frontal scene, everyone gets to see his penis, and then the cultural obsession (mostly among men) with penis size rears its head. :rolleyes: ---

I was watching “Mallrats” (unedited) for the first time in a while the other night and was “treated” to a shot of [Michael Rooker](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0740264/) in full backal nudity. I had somewho managed to block that out, but now its back. Ewww. ---
