IIRC, “The Cook, the Thief, his Wife & her Lover” comes to mind.

When I see an actress in a nude scene I just figure she slept with the director, the producer, her agent.
To: Maceman
You’re joking, right?
Starting with her first movie, Age of Consent, on to Caligula, The Cook..., on up through Calendar Girls.

What is this, 1957? A sudden outburst of morality in Hollywood? Pardon me while I LMAO.

I know a pretty hot girl that Michael Bay and Dan Aykroyd tried to sleep with her back in 1999. They wanted to cast her for the movie Pearl Harbor. She did not do it, but she said Dan Aykrod was practically stocking.
I only know this because she told me about it. Anyhow, she is now married to millionaire out in California. So it worked out for her without having to go sleep your way to success route.
To: Snickering Hound
I would share my foxhole with her.
Just say'n.

“Outspoken” actresses on this subject such as Helen Mirren and Joan Collins did plenty of cheesecake, if not outright nude, spreads in their younger days.
Nobody put a gun to their heads either—They made a conscious choice.
I have little sympathy for their tears.

Sounds good. Don’t forget the Lesbo’s. They’re pretty damn active on the ‘casting couch’ too.

Im sure John Travolta is thinking Now youre going to do something about it. A little late for me. That's the story I've heard, that it's what wound up turning him gay.

Well! One hundred years too late when Equity was founded at The Players in New York City. As if it didn’t happen then as well...

I notice they say “actors” and not “actresses.” I guess Hollywood really is full of queers.

Oh, this is the British Actor’s Equity. Actors are not forced to join this union to be professional performers - unlike the American brand.

If they are going to remove the ONE REMAINING PERK from Hollywood, I’m not going to change careers to Casting Director.

...and we of course won’t mention how many under-age children were ensnared by these directors, producers and agents, many with the subtle permission of their greedy parents.

Yeah, she’s a bit of a hypocrite. I can remember an awful stage production of Caesar and Cleopatra with Helen and Alan Rickman in which she couldn’t wait to rip off her shirt for the asp scene. In fact, my husband and I took bets on the nude scene.

Can you run around the couch over and over again? It takes great stamina to be a casting couch lech.

Mirren is absolutely infamous for her nude scenes. On stage as well as in the movies. She’s a good-lookin’ broad but she needs to keep her clothes on. Thank God she’s now playing the Queen and we don’t have to see THAT.
