This may surprise you in two ways:

1. There is nudity in a South African film,
2. Embeth Davidtz is still getting naked at age 60.

It has been many years since Embeth Davidtz did a nude scene, but I guess she really trusted this director, perhaps because the actress and director have the same name.

Johnny Moronic’s film clip is here.

She has done five previous nude scenes, or perhaps it’s more accurate to say that her characters have done five, although only the first two were were significant. According to her, she was not nude between The Gingerbread Man and Ray Donovan:

I was nude in The Gingerbread Man because it was Robert Altman. Then I don’t think I was nude onscreen for 20 years.

That’s obviously incorrect because of Junebug, so I would not be inclined to trust her version of anything without corroboration, but if we assume she forgot about Junebug, then the scene in Fragments must have been performed by a body double.

The scenes:

She did a brief full-frontal in Schindler’s List (1993).

The best by far, was a full-frontal appearance in The Gingerbread Man (1998).

She did a sex scene in Junebug (2005)

Her character was pictured naked in Fragments (2008), but that may have been a body double, since her face never appeared in a frame with the nudity.

Her final nude scene before the new one was in a 2016 episode of Ray Donovan (s4e6). I don’t know how much of that is real. (As opposed to prosthetics or make-up. Embeth underwent a mastectomy in 2013, and that was pertinent to the story, but the procedure she underwent in real life was a double mastectomy, so I don’t know exactly what we are looking at here. Here is the story.)

A review of 2025 (last night) and several previous years

She bills herself as “Double Platinum Recording Artist.” Does she still sing? Danity Kane will be doing a reunion tour in December, but I don’t know whether she is part of that.

I guess she’s moving in a completely different direction now. In addition to posing without her clothing, she recently appeared in an E! reality series, Botched Presents: Plastic Surgery Rewind.

Polish crime drama on Netflix. Original title: Druga Furioza (2025)

“Furioza Again,” the highly anticipated 2025 sequel to the Polish crime thriller Furioza, marks a fierce and emotionally charged return to the gritty underworld that captivated audiences in the first film. The story picks up with Dawid (Mateusz Banasiuk), now a man living in the shadows, grappling with the ghosts of his past and the fallout from the events that shattered his gang and his family. After betraying the Furioza brotherhood to save his loved ones, Dawid has spent years trying to rebuild his life under a new identity. Yet, as the film opens, it’s clear that peace is only temporary. When a series of violent incidents between rival hooligan factions erupts once again across the city, Dawid is pulled back into the chaos he tried to escape.

Aussie horror film lensed in Melbourne.

Three wealthy schoolgirls escape for a weekend getaway to a remote town, unaware it’s been overtaken by psychopaths who stalk and terrorize them, turning their vacation into a horrific nightmare.

Trivia:

Karen West, a Melbourne based model, was Australian Playboy’s 1980 Playmate of the Year. This launched her into a supporting role on “The Paul Hogan Show” (replacing Karen Pini, Australian Penthouse’s 1979 Pet of the Year) and brief appearances in feature films including 1982’s “Squizzy Taylor”.

Her appearance in a sketch with Paul Hogan involving doing push-ups with the aid of an adjustable ‘banana lounge’ recliner was used in many ‘best of Australian television’ specials for the next 30 years.

This was just released on HD for the first time. Needless to say, Johnny Moronic has a brief film clip

Lee Grant’s nude scene in When Ya Comin’ Back, Red Ryder? reminded me of Candy Clark, who did full-body nudity in that film.

Candy didn’t have many nude roles, but when she did, she was totally committed.

Candy was nominated for an Oscar for American Griffiti in 1973. Although her nude scenes never made it past the 1970s, she is still acting. She is 78 now and apparently she was in an episode of Criminal Minds earlier this year.
