Nudity And Nude Scenes In Movies An
This group is for all those who love seeing nudity on film or TV, either seeing actors and actresses naked or group scenes of nudity. There is often a sexual component to much film nudity. This is about the nudity and body exposure or natural expression of nudity, rather than the sexual intent.

HBO Series Rome
Return to DiscussionsIn the HBO series Rome there is quite a bit of nudity. Some of it is gratuitous but most of it is done well. In the first episode of Season One we see Calpurnia (played by Helena Bonham Carter) completely nude in her bath. She stands so we see her full frontal and then she turns and walks up the steps out of the bath. I couldn't help but think of her as she is now, presently playing British Princess Margaret. In the fourth episode we see Marc Anthony (played by James Purefoy) standing full frontal nude in his courtyard being given an oil rub by his man slave. All the while he is having a conversation with a fellow soldier as he watches. We don't see Purefoy's backside and during the close up body shots we only see him from the waist up but the open complete nudity was refreshing and I loved the natural casual openness of it between the men. There are numerous sex scenes but these two non sex scenes stood out to me.
