Walkabout and Blue Lagoon were great films. Does anybody remember "Women in Love" with the scene with the late Oliver Reed and for the life of me I cannot remember the other male actors name. They were wrestling totally nude on front of a roaring fire on a mansion. Plenty of full frontal there!!!
Here is a link to the description of Women in Love. The other male lead appears to be Alan Bates.
I saw it at the campus theater in College. I had to read the book for a Freshman English course and missed all the interesting parts shown in the film.

I picked up a cute DVD from f.y.e. not too long ago it was a double picture entitled Blaze Starr Goes Nudist, and Nude on the Moon. It was shot I think in the late 30’s or so. There were scenes that I just had to laugh at. Such as the ladies sitting or standing with leg’s bent so that the only thing visible were their breasts, and none of the men were shown from the waist down. But over all both of them were good movies.

What’d y’all think about the “new” Arby’s commercial where the guy an gal are sitting by a lake, and she suggests that they go for a dip. Then runs to the water undressing as she goes. Showing just her back, then her just from the tops of her breasts looking at him like he’s crazy for running off for fast food instead of joining her?
Also whatever y’all think of the Wamu commercial where the “bankers pen” are nude save for shoes an socks. And “Bill” can’t believe that they actually went nude?
Personally I think the Arby’s commercial is the better one as there’s no surprise or possible disgust over the nudity, as there is in the Wamu commercial. Are there other commercials that use nudity or the suggestion of nudity in a positive manner?

I can absolutely see movies where nudity would be an integral part. I remember even seeing "Winds of War" on television where Jews were being led into the gas chambers, and the FCC didn't seem to have a problem with it, since it was not only historically accurate, but a supremely moving and disturbing scene. More recently, some movies have had scenes that were not gratuitous. One of my favorites was actually "The Whole Nine Yards", where the amazing Amanda Peet's Character disrobed to create a distraction. It was brief, sure, but it made sense. Part of the problem, though, is that nudity in film is usually used for one of two reasons: Sex or comedy. Now to be fair, Those both have their parts in storytelling. I laughed heartily at the character of "Areola" in "Not Another Teen Movie", but the problem is that realistic nudity (normal life situations even for textiles) is rarely depicted, and casual nudity (people reading the newspaper, and the like) are NEVER depicted, so the result is furthering the perception that nudity is either sexual or undignified. You could further that argument that most male nudity in film (almost never frontal) is used for comedic effect.
I've got my gears churning. Maybe I can come up with a screenplay where nudity actually fits into the script. I'll keep thinking about it.
By the way, I loved that Arby's commercial.

I found some interesting info here: Innocent Nudity in Films (Long url because it's a google cache of a page that apparently no longer exists.)
Note: Moderators, I'm pretty sure the above link is okay to post. If not, then my apologies and please delete it.

Im not trying to hijack the topic but I would like to say that nonsexual nudity would be more enjoyable than all the gratuitous violence that can get a "G" or "PG" rating. Decapitations and severed body parts are supposed to be less objectionable than the human body nude. Unbelievable !!

I like the label of "innocent nudity" as a counter-weight to "indecent exposure" and as a substitute for "non-sexual nudity". "Innocent nudity" says what it means and is unambiguous enough even for legal use.

That Blaze Starr movie was funny, but not because of clever lines. One of the main characters had a "moustache" on him that was merely drawn on him with a grease pencil or something quite similar. A low budget production!
The one thing I didn't like about it was a cheesy scene at a theater where Blaze was watching a movie about a nudist resort. The men in the theater couldn't keep their eyes off her.
The main part was about being at a nudist resort and that part was enjoyable.

I saw both Blaze Starr Goes Nudist and Nude on the Moon recently on tv here in Canada. They were both hilarious movies. In Canada, we have a channel called "Drive-In", and on every Friday night, they show these types of old movies. It's funny too see the actors/actresses going out of their way not to expose their fronts below the waste. Also, a lot of these are set in Florida, near where I lived, so I like to look for places that I recognize.

Does anyone else find humor in the movies and tv shows where there is nudity but it is conveniently hidden by a strategic camera angle or well placed lamps, furniture, etc? I think its funny how directors will do this just to convey that there is nudity without actually showing it. What I'm talking about was satired at the end of one of the Austin Powers movies where they move stuff while covering themselves.
P.S. I couldn't get the link of "Innocent Nudity in Films" to work.

Movies like "Blaze Starr Goes Nudist" and "Nude on the Moon" are exploitational films directed by the late Doris Wishman. They are funny in a campy (no pun intended) way. They made it appear that nudists did a lot of reading because they were frequently holding a newspaper or magazine in front of their privates when walking around the camp!
