O.O Thats really annoying.


Is anyone else annoyed that just sketched beautiful people instead of any average-fat chicks? Cause in the movie he's like "The woman shape is beautiful" or whatever, but he only focuses on beautiful chick. Because in fact the female body can be pretty grotesque sometimes.

And why were the women all sexy?

Please no flames. I just had to note that. I really want feedback...not some prick telling me somthing completely useless.

well, this was a movie, and in a movie entertainment (showing sexy people to titillate the audience) often counts for more than substance (making an effort to evoke the beauty present in the average or unattractive)

..and the movie is european = not fat

As I know, Sean Ellis was a fashion photographer. So I think he got used to capture skinny naked women

Well, this may seem like I'm being a f_cking prickm but...

I don't think the guy in the movie would want to spend his time thinking about heavy-women to help him pass time.

Why did the only vaginas shown have no pubic hair? Is that supposed to be a comment? Or is it Ellis' own preference or... did the only women who wanted to show their vulvas/vaginas have them shaved? Any enlightenment on this or opinions would be wonderful. And I agree: he'll find beautiful women more beautiful than ugly fat chicks. Although a true aesthete would love women of all shapes and sizes.

I can see your point, but on the other hand, how many great works by Michelangelo or comparable artists ever featured naked fat people? I figure when artists talk about "the female form," they're talking about an ideal version of it. Unfair, perhaps, but not unusual.

Well, the naked lady walking up the stairs when he was a child-- his mum or whoever-- had it

The boy didn't stop the time and undress them. It's a fantasy! I don't see fat chicks in my fantasies either!

I also think they used very well done mannequins for some still women and I doubt there are many over weight mannequins.

reply

Let me guess, are you fat and ugly?

reply

and from the director/writer/producer point of view...skinny "pretty" women make the film more marketable to the general public...the fact is..if you filled the film with so called "ugly" people..the movie would be less succesful from a finantial point.

Even though the movie was funny for an non-hollywood movie you'd expect more.

All the girls while of course, very pleasing to the eye, they're just magazine models with photoshop'd perfect breasts and well shaven - all of them.

It would of gave the movie a little more depth and maybe make it a bit more moving if the filmmaker added some women with different shapes and sizes,
it would pull you in more...rather than say...wow hard bod! :)

As it is, its a light weight comedy with nudity and that's all.
