Late on Friday afternoon we brought you news of all the noteworthy nudes appearing at the Toronto Film Festival, but we understand that by three oíclock on a Friday afternoon most of you are either passed out drunk on the office liquor stash or you have placed a look-alike blow-up doll in your desk chair and are off to find your dealer (his supply usually runs short on the weekends). So to better serve you, our delinquent readers, we will update our earlier post with more juicy nudie details.
First up, Brokeback Mountain. Weíve all been hearing about Ang Leeís gay cowboy movie for at least a year now, what with the hunky, hunky kiss between Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal. But it wasnít until recently that the female cast members started getting some attention. Those cowboys may not actually be as gay as we thought, as they both have some fun with naked females. For Heath Ledger itís real-life fiancÈe/baby incubator Michelle Williams, who shows her breasts during and after sex with Ledger. Michelle has previously given us quite a bit of nudity in Me Without You and If These Walls Could Talk 2. We are more interested in Jake Gyllenhaalís bedmate, Anne Hathaway. We are still more than two months away from the DVD release of Havoc (we think there are already people lined up outside of Best Buy waiting for their copy), but if Anne keeps going at this rate sheís going to be the next Jenna Jameson by about February. Here she only shows a quick flash of breasts in the backseat of a car with Gyllenhaal, but it will be a nice addition to her alleged all-out freakiness in Havoc. Brokeback Mountain will be realeased theatrically December 9th.
The masses will have to wait a bit longer to indulge in our next selection, The Notorious Bettie Page, which wonít be released to theaters until March 10th, 2006. Like Michelle Willaims, Gretchen Mol has provided us with an ample amount of nudity, but it has never been as exciting or anticipated as her turn as Bettie Page. Itís like getting two hot naked ladies for the price of one. The stylish movie includes many black-and-white scenes of Mol in vintage lingerie and bikinis, but the highlight comes only half an hour into the film, when Mol is posing for a photographer in the woods. Photographers can be pretty persuasive people, and this particular one convinces Bettie to take off every stitch of clothing and take some pretty pictures. The rest of the film continues to deliver all three Bís as Gretchen recreates many of Bettieís famous poses. Not to be missed.
A movie that we have discussed extensively, Where the Truth Lies, also played at Toronto, and lucky viewers will get to see it for themselves on October 14th (That is if they live in L.A. or New York. The rest of us will have to wait a week). Atom Egoyanís NC-17-rated film has first-time skin from Rachel Blanchard, Alison Lohman, and newcomer Rebecca Davis, as well as second-time skin from Kristin Adams. It was the three-way scene between Alicia Silverstone stand-in Blanchard and Kevin Bacon and Colin Firth that garnered the film its rating, and Egoyan claimed that none of the dirty bits could be cut without ruining the entire plotline of the movie. Thatís some important sex. Blanchard only reveals her breasts in the movie, but itís a good start for a girl who was most recently seen on the sappy family drama 7th Heaven. We might be even more excited by Alison Lohmanís nudity, as she seemed to be stuck playing a teenager for too many years. Sheís all grown up here, revealing buns and breasts. Letís hope that directors the world over recognize that sheís both of age and damn sexy and continue her on the path of debauchery.
Our last big news is of Claire Danes, who seems to be quickly losing her wholesome image (snatching Billy Crudup away from his seven-months-pregnant wife sure helped that along). For years all we had to cling to was Claireís nip slip in Polish Wedding. Then last year she was gracious enough to give us both of her tiny teets in Stage Beauty. Now in Shopgirl she has garnered us with a lingering view of her naked buns. Thereís only one piece left in her nudity trifecta. Get a gander at this piece of the puzzle when Shopgirl opens on October 21st.
