Am I disgusting for ogling Laura Linney's smokin' hot bod?


Okay, when I saw this in the theater with my wife about a dozen years ago, I was shocked, shocked seeing Laura Linney on the floor, bound, writing, and dying.

And all I could think of was, "GODDAMN! That is one fiiiiiine body!" Where the hell has she been hiding that sweet, sweet, body all these years?

Am I a sick disgusting sociopath, or am I just appreciative of the female form in all its glory?





I want the doctor to take your picture so I can look at you from inside as well.

i'd vote 'both', if that helps?!

haha. the first moment I thought so as well.. after that I was too much into the movie. But other than that, I have never been this attracted to Kate Winslet before..I thought she was gorgeous in this.

I'm a woman and agree she is beautiful. Her looks are pretty under rated in Hollywood.

Was it Laura or a body double? Her head was covered.

I believe it was a body-double. Nudity doesn't appear until after her head is draped and her back s turned. We see the naked arse of a woman with a bag on her head. I don't think a big name like Linney would be needed for such a scene. That being said....I'd like to buy a house for the woman who played the part.

That's not always true. I can think of many "big" celebrities, or at least they were when they did nudity. Kate Winslet, an A list actress does nudity in almost every movie she's in. Hallie Barry has also done it. Demi Moore just like Kate Winslet has done it in several films. Julianne Moore in at least two I can think of off hand. Jennifer Anniston, Kirsten Dunst, Jennifer Connelly, Scarlett Johansson, Angelina Jolie, Nicole Kidman, Charlize Theron just to name a few, I'm sure there are many more.
It's not just women either, many men have also done nudity, and I'm not talking just the backside. Tom Cruise, Ben Affleck, Bruce Willis, Heather Ledger, Jason Segal, and I can't forget Kevin Bacon.

In the commentary track the director claims it's really Linney.
