Wasn't a Hollywood movie, but of you want to see early erotic flick, check out an 18 year old Hedy Lamarr cavorting in nature fully nude in a 1933 Czech film "Ecstacy". "Her role was that of a neglected young wife married to an indifferent older man. The film became both celebrated and notorious for showing Lamarr's face in the throes of orgasm as well as close-up and brief nude scenes". I think it's the first film with a full nude scene in it.
You are correct, It was the first, as far as I know. I forgot all about that movie. I have never seen more than a few clips, but it frequently gets mentioned WRT censorship.
Complete with cigarette afterward.
The whole movie can be seen on YT.

Thanks, this was the main part I wasn't sure of. Yes, the whole thing fits in well with the alcohol prohibition!
LOL - I can't watch it because YouTube is on Restricted Mode because of my son. Funny!
You don't think your son has a porn workaround?

I blame Wynton, what was the question?
There are only 10 types of people in the World, those who understand binary and those that don't.
Speaking of movies where the villains win at the end, "Diabolique" is on TCM next Friday. In fact, all next week, they are featuring movies with great endings during prime time.

A few years back I was on both a Hedy Lamarr and a Ava Gardner kick, fascinated by both actresses, and I have an uncut restored DVD version of Ecstasy. That movie caused a bit of a sensation and got her noticed here in the US paving the way for future roles. Of course she claimed the nudity was shot without her permission.
I'm sorry, I couldn't resist.

I love the shot of the woman fastening her garter belt to her stocking (at 1:44). Obviously a shot for the fetishists.

Right now TCM is supposed to have on something called Ireland: The Emerald Isle, but instead it’s some John Wayne movie. What John Wayne movie is it?
EDIT: Looks like it was “The Big Stampede.”
Also they have on Tarzan and His Mate on today for some reason, amidst the Irish stuff.

Now on TCM watching Red Barry starring Buster Crabbe. A serial I never heard of with Asian stereotypes a-flyin, and to cap it off a shot of Pell Street in Manhattan’s Chinatown, where my grandmother lived before it was Chinatown!
Maureen O'Sullivan.
My two girlfriends: Joan Blondell sitting nekkid on the backwards chair and Toby Wing dancing in her skivvies on the table top. Hubba, hubba, hubba. Of course, each would be well over 100 years old now.

Looking forward to my day in court.

It would have been alright"
God, there were so many attractive and/or hot Hollywood actresses back in the 20s & 30s. Jean Arthur, Blondell, Clara Bow, Joan Crawford, Katharine Hepburn, Bette Davis (in her own way), and even this young beauty (Ginger Rogers is on the right):
Anyone wanna hazard a guess as to who this is?

I knew there was a serious sibling rivalry, but this goes into a lot of detail: The Truth Behind Olivia de Havilland and Joan Fontaine's Epic Feud

I thought of that, but wasn’t sure because of the stuff leading up to it. Was John Wayne Irish? I know of The Quiet Man of course, but didn’t think he was actually Irish. And Buster Crabbe?
Am I wrong or do the elephants in Tarzan and his Mate have fake ears? Maybe they’re really Indian elephants?
Wow, strange movie. The guy who shoots Tarzan is never outed for doing that, though he does die.
Looks like Lucille Ball.God, there were so many attractive and/or hot Hollywood actresses back in the 20s & 30s. Jean Arthur, Blondell, Clara Bow, Joan Crawford, Katharine Hepburn, Bette Davis (in her own way), and even this young beauty (Ginger Rogers is on the right):

This is one of the desktop photos I use on my Mac. I'm always struck by the legs of the beauties. For those of you who might not recognize it, it's from the masquerade ball from "The Phantom of the Opera" (1925).
