We continue our nude march through the skinful '70s with 1973, the year when Bruce Lee died, Neve Campbell, Rose McGowan and Shannon Elizabeth were born, and a pre-Chained Heat Linda Blair used a crucifix as a demonic dildo in The Exorcist. So without further aboob, we proudly present Mr. Skin's top picks from his Favorite Nude Scenes of 1973 playlist!

Join us after the jump for the top T&A of 1973!

In a skinteresting development, veteran character actor Donald Sutherland has vehemently denied new reports about his sex scene with Julie Christie in the 1973 thriller Don't Look Now. As we reported Thursday on the Mr. Skin blog, the new book by former Paramount executive Peter Bart alleges that Donald and Julie were actually playing hide the sausage in the skinfamous scene. In a statement to The Hollywood Reporter, Sutherland strongly denies Bart's story, saying:

"Peter Bart mendaciously writes that he witnessed the shooting of the love scene in Don't Look Now and saw sex. Not true. None of it. Not the sex. Not him witnessing it. From beginning to end, there were four people in that room. [Director] Nic Roeg, [DP] Tony Richmond, Julie Christie and me. No one else. Wires under the locked door led outside, and this was 20 years before video monitors."

Producer Peter Katz, who co-owns the negative to Don't Look Now, also chimed in, saying, "While there was a sex scene captured on film, it was not a scene that would lead to the creation of a human being."

So...it was in her butt?

Don't Look Now wasn't the first time that Donald was lucky enough to act alongside a nubile naked lady, and it certainly wouldn't be the last. Check out some of Sutherland's most seductive costars from the swingin' 70's after the jump!

According to the new book Infamous Players: A Tale of Movies, the Mob, (and Sex), Julie Christie and Donald Sutherland weren't just showing off their acting chops when they got down and dirty in the supernatural thriller Don't Look Now(1973).

The book's author, Peter Bart, who was a Paramount executive at the time, visited Don't Look Now's Venice set on the day the sexy scene was filmed. Bart's attention was briefly distracted as filming began, and when he looked back, both Christie and Sutherland were completely naked and no longer playing pretend:

"It was clear to me they were no longer simply acting: they were f*cking on camera," Bart writes in his book.

According to Bart, a few months later a furious Warren Beatty, who was dating Christie at the time, stormed into Bart's office demanding that the scene be cut. He had seen director Nicholas Roeg's cut of the film, which was so graphic that Julie's juice box was clearly visible.

"I want to cut the movie with you, p*ssy hair by p*ssy hair..." Beatty reportedly told Bart.

Defy the wishes of party pooper Warren Beatty by watching the sex scenes from Don't Look Now and MORE from Julie Christie on MrSkin.com!

The Norman Invasion of 1066 is the best British invasion of all time. The Beatles are the best British band of all time. Fish and chips are the best British fried food of all time. And Kate Moss is the best British model of all time.

And now, according to the new list of the 100 Best British Films from Time Out compiled by 150 experts including Sam Mendes, Wes Anderson and Sally Hawkins, Nicolas Roeg's Don't Look Now is the best British film of all time.

The 1973 thriller, which features a fully nude Julie Christie doing a non-simulated sex scene with Donald Sutherland, has long been in the Mr. Skin Hall of Fame.

About the pronouncement, director Roeg said of the skinfamous sex scene: "For me, sex is very rarely rude. It's a fresh thing. Sex, whether you like it or not, is the prime force of life. There is no other reason to be here."

No other reason we can think of.

Will Weaver Rub Her Beaver on the Pole?

We've seen a lot of actresses play strippers in the past few years. Jessica Biel. Heather Graham. Marisa Tomei. Jessica Alba. And it's likely we'll see a lot more in the years to come. But when we think of which starlets are likely to don G-strings and pasties (or hopefully less) to grease the pole, names like Blake Lively, Mila Kunis, or Megan Fox come to mind. The prospect of 60-year-old Avatar star Sigourney Weaver taking to a strip club stage came completely out of left field and punched us squarely in the gut.

Hear what Sigourney has to say about her upcoming role—and learn which nudity-loving director she's set to work with—after the cut.

From Death and the Maiden to Skingoria.

Best known for his over-the-top interpretations of the work of H.P. Lovecraft, director Stuart Gordon is a legend in the horror world.

Over the past 25 years, Gordon has directed gorefests like From Beyond, Castle Freak, and Dagon, written the scripts for Honey, I Shrunk the Kids and The Dentist, and done episodes of the cable anthology series Masters of Horror.

He has also worked with mainstream actors William H. Macy, Bai Ling, Denise Richards, Mena Suvari, and Julia Stiles in the non-horror movies Edmond and Stuck.

Earlier this month, he graciously sat down and talked to MrSkin.com’s own McBeardo and Count Rackula about nudity, the state of the horror film, and Re-Animator’s most famous scene.
