According to Gemini, this should not exist:
Barbra Streisand filmed a brief topless scene for the 1970 film The Owl and the Pussycat, but she decided it did not work and had it cut from the movie before its release. The Filming Agreement: Streisand agreed to shoot the nude/topless scene on two strict conditions: no one else could be in the room except co-star George Segal and essential crew, and she retained the final right to scrap the footage if she felt it did not fit. After reviewing the material, she chose to kill the shot, and the nude frames were removed and destroyed prior to the theatrical release.
And yet here is a film clip from a German DVD that includes the very brief scene – undestroyed.
Barbra Streisand: “No one better look at my naked boobies!”
Everyone: “Hey, let’s look at Streisand’s naked boobies…”
Yeah I think there’s some sort of name for that effect.
I’d heard of this scene, and assumed it was lost for good. Her tits are (or at least, were) pretty nice! All ten frames of them.
Seeing this after all those lost years gives me hope for other “destroyed” filmed nudity, like Natalie Portman’s scenes from “Closer.”
I’M BLIND!!!!!!!!
Is this from a German DVD? I vaguely recall that it was from a TV broadcast that accidentally aired the uncut version. I think High Society published a still and Barbra threatened to sue as is her won’t.
I suppose it could be a German broadcast. Either way, the entire scene is in German. I cut it down to a few seconds without dialogue.
There’s, IMHO, a bigger, better shot in the ‘Encyclopedia of Film Nudity’.
Nipplessssssssss, nipples who need nipplessssssss
Are the PERKIEST nipples, On the boobs!
My grandfather would be ecstatic over this.
Dude, even MY grandfather wouldn’t be that excited.
But she was a huge star, and the scene is rare.
I always thought she was attractive, in her own way, and I appreciate the opportunity to see her tits, even if just a brief glimpse.
