"Pretty Maids All In a Row" A reflection of its time

From 1971, a dark comedy/drama ( interestingly, screenplay by Gene Roddenberry) which probably would not be produced today.
The lovely Angie Dickinson co stars as a teacher who enthusiastically agrees to help one of her high school students with his "sexual problem."
Angie appears nude in the film, as do many of the "high school" coeds at the school , all seduced by the school's guidance counselor, none other than Rock Hudson. Hudson's character, known as "TIGAR," is an ex jock who also coaches the football team. The movie is set to the backdrop of a series of student murders. Dickinson and Hudson were in this film right before their respective television careers took off in POLICEWOMAN for Angie and MACMILLAN AND WIFE for Rock.

The movie is available this month on WATCH TCM and the mature content of the movie (mostly nudity and themes) is typical of the late 1960's and early 1970's when nudity was fairly common in feature films designated, in those days, with a rating of "M" for Mature audiences. It was not rare to see your favorite starlet/actor appearing in NUDE scenes during that era, from serious films like CARNAL KNOWLEDGE to camp classics such as WHEN DINOSAURS RULED THE EARTH.
