Blog Posts about Belle de Jour

The girls are going wild this week on DVD and Blu-ray as Lynn Whitfield bares her tit-field as legendary lust object Josephine Baker in The Josephine Baker Story (1991)(nude on Blu-ray), Drew Barrymore baring her berries more in Bad Girls (1994) (nude on Blu-ray), and French sex icon Catherine Deneuve as a part-time hooker in Belle de Jour (1967), out now on a lavish Criterion Collection DVD and Blu-ray. Newer, but just as nude, are up-and-comers Meredith Giangrande, who bares her grandes playing a porn star in Bucky Larson: Born to be a Star (2011), and Juno Temple, who's as dirty as you can get (without going nude) in Dirty Girl (2011).

Tit's also a good week for skinternational nudity, with high-class hooker Isabelle Huppert giving her clients Special Treatment (2010), Joni Kamen killing sperm cells in Killing Bono (2011), and slippery South American sexpot Camila Velasco making us break out into a Cold Sweat (2010).

More after the jump!

1969 stands as the year that pop culture evolved from the mass grooviness of Woodstock and the far-out giant leap of the moon landing to the horror of the Manson Family murders and the Hells Angels stomping out flower power at Altamont.

It was also the year that Hollywood erupted with new creative freedom, emboldened by expanding societal mores and the new MPAA rating system.

Filmmakers could now dip into the palette of patently adult material, including coarse language, unflinching violence, and, most importantly, sex and nudity.

Let’s trip on back to 1969 and dig nine classic nude scenes from that headiest of daze gone by.

1. EASY RIDER

Easy Rider is indisputably one of the hippie era’s ultimate artistic statements. Toni Basil’s “Hey Mickey!” video is one of the most indelible media images of the 1980s. How interesting that one cultural touchstone unwittingly begat another. On acid. Naked.

Rack the Vote!

Here's one issue both Mamocrats and Re-pubic-ans alike can come together regarding: deciding the hottest onscreen vixen of all time.

GQ mag is running a new poll that will decide the single most important issue facing Americans this November: Halle Berry or Julie Christie? Catherine Deneuve or Jessica Alba?

GQ's compiled a list of 25 searingly hot perv-formances by women on the silver screen like Ursula Andress in Dr. No and Scarlett Johansson in Lost in Translation.

Wherever men of ideas and action gather to exchange theories and compare experiences, the talk invariably comes around to praising those few accomplished gentlemen among us who have wallowed in the physical delights of a mother and her daughter. The notion of gaining access to the most intimate, moistest recesses of two women, one of whom has squirmed from the womb of the other, is too much for a meek-willed male to contemplate without swooning. It's a hale and brave fellow who embraces the reality of copulating with two successive generations of directly descending females.

Since the silent era, multitudes of movies about prostitutes have scorched the silver screen. It's no mystery as to why. Women with "loose morals" are simply more exciting than the average gal: they dress sluttier, they get naked more often and they know what they're doing in bed. And such titillation puts asses in seats and palms to meats.
