A question about Paul Rudd in this film...


On another forum somewhere, someone recentkly said

"That lingering camera shot panning slowly up his torso in The Object of My Affection was an insanely erotic moment in a relatively cutesy, vanilla-flavoured film!"

Well I was just wondering what was so sexy about this shot? Is Paul's character in a state of undress? Shirtless? In a towel or something?

Any details would be appreciated. Thanks

Paul's caracter in a state of undress lets say.

Geogre (Rudd) and Aniston (Nina) are in bed watching tv/talking.. and them there's a moment and a litle kissing starts..

Nina start taking his shirt off, and he put his hand down to her but in a cute way. This is a very sexy scene, but we can't see anything from Miss Aniston or Mr. Rudd, but thats does not matter, I think the scene was considered 'an insanely erotic moment in a relatively cutesy' becouse we get so envolved by the feelings of Nina and George that we feel the hot between them on that moment. I agree thats a insanely erotic yet light scene.

This may be an old post - but I just saw this film for the first time last night (even though i've owned it on video for years) - i just saw Role Models on Sunday and LOVED it, i've always liked Paul Rudd but haven't really 'liked' him til I saw that film - which is why i FINALLY got around to seeing this.

I agree with whoever wrote that in the other forum - thats exactly what i was thinking! it was an incredibly sexy moment *whew* - i was wondering where it was going for a moment! lol

Do you have monkeys in Scotland?

I agree too, but I loved it. I thought it was great, and perfect for that brief moment. In the end I was glad that they ended up with other people. I'm now officially in love with Paul Rudd though.
