Just Saw "just a kiss" if you are renting it for the idina sequence or any( decided to watch after the sequence) it's not worth it. It's very fleeting and quick quick hyper cuts. Also she sounds like she is saying some of the lyrics of "No Good Deed" in the Scene
"Look on the Bright Side
Not on the Blackside
get off your backside
shine those shoes!
This is your golden opportunity:
Your the lightning and the news!"
-Assassins
I can't remember the name of the play (mid-19080s) but it was written by Pete Gurney and starred Mary Tyler Moore and Lynn Redgrave. Both John Dossett and Barry Tubb has nude scenes.
I am fascinated by this thread… and by the concept of nudity on stage. I have attended a lot of theatrical production, many of which contained nude actors or actresses. Here are a partial list of show that I attended (on and off Broadway) that had memorable nude scenes or famous actresses prancing around in the buff from the recent past:
Hair Killer Joe -- Michelle Willaims from Dawson’s Creak got totally naked and Lori Petty showed her butt. (Quite a pleasant surprise. I think before these two, Fairuza Balk did the honours.) The Women—Jennifer Tilly in the bath plus another topless woman The Blue Room—Nicole Kidman Passion—Marin Mazzie Cellini-- stunningly beautiful Jennifer Roszell in stunningly beautiful scenes as an artist’s model Stanley Thou Shalt Not Franny’s Way Vienna: Lusthaus (revisited)—possibly the most erotic and beautiful staging ever. This is my favourite.
There were plays I never saw: Rent The Graduate Rocky Horror Wit Dracula Steaming Steam Bath
Then there are the ones which I can’t recall the names There was a play about three couples and their dalliances—one actress kept sunbathing topless There was an avant-garde piece in Brooklyn with a floating bed A Greek tragedy with Ann Reinking in a sheer top A play about a Russian theater troupe—the new young actress was posing nude A play about strippers—this one had (cute as a button) Dina Spybey topless
Anybody know any others in New York, London or even the West Coast? The more famous the actress, the better. No show is too big or too small.
Rent has nudity?? Do you mean Maureen's bare ass? Does that count as nudity nowadays? It seems so commonplace - I mean, Shannyn Sossamon's full bare ass had a close-up on L&O:SVU this week!
"It's not always about you!!!" (But if you think I'm referring to you anyway, then I probably am.)
"Good luck returning my ass!" - Wilhemina Slater
"This is my breakfast, lunch and f***ing dinner right here. I'm not even f***in' joking." - Colin Farrell
If anyone has seen "The Highest Yellow", the new Michael John LaChiusa musical at the Signature Theatre in Virginia, Marc Kudisch bares it ALL in one scene -- and I mean it ALL...
...it was kind of scary...Marc Kudisch is a bow legged hairy man. He's great in the show though.
