"From Russia with Love" (1963)

From Russia with Love is also not my favorite Bond film. First, it costars the lovely Daniela Bianchi, but shows very little of her. Second, the Q toys are not very exciting. Last, and bigest, is that they shot much of the film in Instanbul, including several places I have been such as the Hagia Sophia and the Grand Bazaar, and managed to make this exotic and colorful city seem rather drab.

For those who might not remember the plot, SPECTRE has pitted the Rusians and the British against each other, with the prize being a Soviet "Lecter" cypher machine. A clerk at the Soviet embassy in Istanbul is tricked into offering the machine to James Bond. Even though this is far from my favorite, I enjoyed it anyway.

    "The Big Blue" (1988)

    The Big Blue (1988) features the best exposure I have seen from Rosanna Arquette, and lovely photography. Arquette plays an insurance investigator who falls in love with a diver she is sent to investigate. The diver is in an international testosterone contest to see who can dive the deepest. Arquette's character was very appealing to me, but everyone else was either laud and pushy, or way too moody. The images of Arquette, and the photography in general are the reasons to watch this one. I admit to hitting fast forward several times.

    According to Rotten Tomatoes, the critics were split down the middle. Maltin gave it two stars, but IMDB readers have it at a very respectable 7.2. I sus[ect the initial release was heavily censored, as Bare Facts mentions only the wet bra scene and says it has no nudity.

    Comments by Mr. Skin:
    Kind of a "happy" theme today. Mrs. Partridge and Jean Simmons from 1969's "The Happy Ending".

    K. C. Winkler and Martine Beswicke "The Happy Hooker Goes Hollywood" '80.

    Lynn Redgrave (looking a tad better then she did in 1999's "Touched) and Anita Morris in the classic "The Happy Hooker" from 1975.

    New from his Holiness...Vidcaps from Hanne's only movie, Mike Figgis' "The Loss of Sexual Innocence". #2 features no holds barred, full frontal nudity. Naturally, no movie about losing sexual innocence would be complete without a snake for biblical symbolism...As seen in #1, along with some southern exposure.
    Jenny Evans Another one-fimer...here is Jenny in topless 'caps from the UK movie "Twin Town".
    Nathalie Baye From 1984's French movie, "Rive droite, rive gauche".
    Akira
    Stacy Haiduk
    (1, 2, 3)
    Crystal clear DVD 'caps by Akira from various episodes of "Kindred: The Embraced". Stacy has been near the top of my favorites list since I first saw her in "SeaQuest". Unfortunately, no nudity in these. But there is plenty of cleavage, and a bunch of head shots.
    Brigid Walsh
    (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)
    More non-nude scenes from "Kindred: The Embraced".

    Giulia Follina Older German celebs is the theme this week. First up brief topless 'caps from 1971's "Zoff". Look behind the topless old guy for the goodies.
    Hildegard Krekel More topless scenes from "Zoff". Onca again, look behind the old guy.
    Ingeborg Schöner Long shots, but the nudity is there, including full frontal. Scenes from 1968's "Ich spreng' euch alle in die Luft".
    Nadja Tiller Teh former Ms. Austria (1949) in topless scenes from 1970's "Engel, die ihre Flügel verbrennen".
    Karin Faber Going all the way back to 1957! I'm sure these scenes from "Das Herz von St. Pauli" were more than a little controversial for their time.
    Anita Lochner From 1972's "Und der Regen verwischt jede Spur"
    and ...
    Simone Muterthies
    (1, 2, 3, 4, 5)
    No clue as to her identity, but she is one hot tamale! I think #4 is my favorite. All the right curves, plus a cool tattoo thing. Excellent scans by RVF.

    Comments by RDO:
    Here's my collection of pics of Allesandra Mussolini. I don't remember the sources of these, but I seem to remember a celebrity sleuth issue some time ago about daughters and grand daughters of famous people which included some of these same shots. I believe the sleuth said she was a model in her young and foolish days and posed for them.
    Marina Sirtis For the Trek fans...Watty has put together some of the best topless images I've ever seen. The pre-TNG scenes from the movie "Blind Date".

    From the German movie "Looosers" by Celeblover. #1 features full frontal, #2 is topless only.
    Leslie Ryan
    (1, 2)
    Grade C or D movie actress in scenes from 1990's "Terror in Paradise". Views of 2 out of 3 of the goodie zones. Topless, and bum views. Although I have to give extra points to the dude co-star for nostalgia purposes. After all, you just don't see to many Richard Marx hair-dos these days.
    Shevonne Durkin
    (1, 2)
    From "The Liars Club". I've always boycotted this movie because it stars Punky Brewster and Wesley Crusher! But I'm happy to report there is at least one thing good to come out of it...these topless 'caps.
    Samantha Janus Posterior shots from 1998's "Breeders", Watty.

    WHY DID THE CHICKEN CROSS THE ROAD?

    DR. SEUSS
    Did the chicken cross the road? Did he cross it with a toad?
    Yes, the chicken crossed the road, but why it crossed, I've not been told!

    ERNEST HEMINGWAY
    To die. In the rain.

    MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR.
    I envision a world where all chickens, be they black or white or brown red or speckled, will be free to cross roads without having their motives called into question.

    GRANDPA
    In my day, we didn't ask why the chicken crossed the road. Someone told us that the chicken crossed the road, and that was good enough for us.

    REV. FRED NILE
    Because the chicken was gay! Isn't it obvious? Can't you people see the plain truth in front of your face? The chicken was going to the "other side." That's what "they" call it the "other side." Yes, my friends,that chicken is gay. And, if you eat that chicken, you will become gay too. It is the will of Jesus and the Lord that we boycott all chickens until we sort out this abomination that the liberal media whitewashes with seemingly harmless phrases like "the other side." That chicken should not be free to cross the road. It's as plain and simple as that.

    ARISTOTLE
    It is the nature of chickens to cross the road.

    KARL MARX
    It was a historical inevitability.

    SADDAM HUSSEIN
    This was an unprovoked act of rebellion and violence by counter-revolutionary terrorists and we were forced to defend ourselves from the menace of the chicken by dropping 500 tons of nerve gas on it.

    FOX MULDER
    You saw it cross the road with your own eyes. How many more chickens have to cross before you believe it's true?

    FREUD
    The fact that you are at all concerned that the chicken crossed the road reveals your underlying sexual insecurity. How do you feel about your mother?

    BILL GATES
    We have just released eChicken 2000, which will not only cross roads, but will lay eggs (only in the proprietary brown_ms.egg format), file your important documents, and balance your cheque book and Internet Explorer is an inextricable part of eChicken.

    THE CIA
    Who told you about the chicken? Did you see the chicken? There was no chicken. Please step into the car, sir.

    EINSTEIN
    Did the chicken really cross the road or did the road move beneath the chicken?

    BILL CLINTON
    I did not cross the road with THAT chicken. What do you mean by chicken? Could you define the word "chicken"?
