Deathstalker 2. I would rewind it over and over…also a damn funny movie.
1982, I was 8 years old, Summer Lovers about a menage a tois starring Peter Gallagher. Or maybe Fanny and Alexander, same year, foreign film with adult themes and might have included nudity. I saw Alien when I was 5. Pretty much been seeing movies from birth. Anything I was able to understand I was mature enough to handle and anything I didn’t understand I didn’t notice. I didn’t quite understand sex yet but I understood the idea of romantic relationships and general physical intimacy. I was bashful about my own nudity but didn’t have any sense of there being anything weird about other people’s nudity til I got older.
Deep Throat. No, really. At a stag party for my friend Bob. It was an eye-opener, among other things.
I was a sophomore in high school, in 1970. The movie was The Hawaiians. There was a full frontal shot of a Japanese girl stepping out of one of those big bath tubs. Back then the movie was rated “M”, which later became “GP”, which in turn morphed into “PG”. I think that scene would rate it PG-13 now, but not higher, because there was no sex involved.
Animal House.
The random, gratuitous, naked boobies of Airplane!
That’s what I miss about today’s conservativeness…the loss of random, gratuitous, naked boobies in PG-rated films.
Yeah yeah yeah. Of course I remember the shot of Brian now, as I think back, but can you really blame me?
Bob, Ted, Carol and Alice. I would’ve been 12. After looking at IMDB, I can see that the two hotties were Natalie Wood and Dyan Cannon. There were nude scenes, right? Maybe I’m just imagining things. My parents probably had no idea what the movie was about before we went to go and see it at the drive-in. If it wasn’t that, the it would’ve been MAS*H, two years later.
Billy Jack had a brief flash of (mostly implied) breast. Billy Jack breaks up a make-out session between one of the bad guys and his curvy girlfriend. When she asks Billy if he’s going to watch while she composes herself, he says “Probably.” There was also a scene where Billy’s wife (?) was tied down and raped by the main bad guy, but not in a particularly revealing way.
I barely remember Easy Rider, which is weird since I saw it a lot more recently than I saw Billy Jack.
My first theatrical nudity? Barbara Bach’s shower scene in The Spy Who Loved Me. Unless the centaur girls in Fantasia count.
Day Of The Locust with Faye Dunaway and Donald Sutherland. My grandfather had taken me to see The Front Page with Matthau and Lemmon, but it was a double feature and he didn’t realize the adult nature of Locust. It wasn’t until I saw it again several years later that I even realized the scene that bothered Grandpa was a sex scene. I was far too disturbed by Sutherland’s character, a celebrity stalker who snaps and kills a child - it was more than a decade after before I could see Donald Sutherland in anything and not get queasy.
This is the first one I saw too. Although the movie came out in 1980, the drive-in we went to must have been showing it as an older release, since Bambi played first, and it wasn’t re-released until 1982 (and I doubt I would have remembered it if I’d seen it at age 3 instead of 5). I think my parents were hoping I’d fall asleep after Bambi, but I didn’t.
Also Jenny Agutter, in Logan’s Run. It certainly made sense for Logan5 and Jessica 6 to get out of those sodden clothes in the subterranean ice cavern, and to put on the conveniently handy furs, but I surely hadn’t been expecting to see it.
I’m pretty sure I’ve seen a pair of boobies or two before I saw this one, but at least I remember the plot and the quote:
It’s this story about a female psychiatrist who tries to help a man through his traumatic childhood memories (he was raped as a child). The only other thing I remember about the movie were the two lines before the sex scene (maybe not word by word but should be close):
“Then let’s just be friends.”
“Very good friends.”
The name of the movie escapes me at the moment, but curiously I saw the same movie again in my High School sex ed. class.
Can one of you movie buffs name this one for me while you’re solving the one for the OP?
I’d say The Prince of Tides, but for a few details:
-
The man wasn’t seeking treatment for himself, but giving his sister’s psychiatrist some background information about the family his sister grew up in.
-
I don’t remember if those lines were in the movie.
-
Barbra don’t show her boobies off for viewing by the movie-going public.
When I was very young, maybe four or so, my parents and I went to the drive-in in Jacksonville to see Flesh Gordon. I’m not sure, but this may in fact have been the first movie I ever saw. As I recall (and I’m basing this on my interpretation of three-decades-old memories of their conversation), there was some misunderstanding about the movie’s rating. I remember them having a converation about “R” and “X,” which happened to be two of my favorite letters at the time, along with “N” and “S.”
After it played for a while and we all figured out that there were a LOT of boobies in this movie, my dad said, “Tiger, lie down; this movie’s going to be scary.” (He calls me “Tiger” to this day.)
I was deeply interested in seeing some more boobies. “I’m not scared!” I protested.
“No,” he said, “you need to lie down.” So I did.
I actually watched Flesh Gordon again not long ago; I’d told my wife the foregoing story about the drive-in, so she rented the flick to surprise me and we watched it.
That movie totally sucked.
When I was about 9, my dad took me to the drive in to see a movie (don’t recall the title) and the second feature was Candy.
I pretended to be asleep!
I was reading a funny website yesterday and the writer was giving his “rules” of filmmaking. One of the ones he offered was the “Free Tits” Rule. This rule is that once your movie has a R-Rating, you should include as many naked breasts in it as possible. The logic is that regardless of what your film is about, there are some men who won’t care about the story but will come just to see the naked breasts. And you’ve already got an R-Rating, so you’re not giving up a PG-13 rating and the MPAA won’t give you a NC-17 rating just for naked breasts - so, in effect, the tits will cost you nothing and are “free”.
I think it was “Doc Hollywood,” the scene where Michael J. Fox watches as the southern girl steps naked out of a lake after skinny-dipping and walks past him. I was sitting in the theater right next to my parents.
As I type that re. Michael J. Fox, didn’t he show his butt in one of the Back to the Future movies? If so, that might technically have been the first nude scene I saw.
Incidentally, if anyone wants to jog their memory on this topic, cndb.com might come in handy – NSFW because of the content, though there are no naked pics except in some of the banner ads.
That’s the one - thanks!
Jason Goes to Hell or Interview with the Vampire. I honestly cannot remember which one I saw first but I remember watching them during the summer before middle school. We used to watch a lot of movies, primarily horror, at my friend’s house for summer sleepovers. The horror didn’t phase us but the nudity was quality.
