Sex, Both Valuable and Skin Deep. BlogNosh 08/05/08

By Karina Longworth posted 1 year ago

In a piece at The House Next Door subtitled “More Valuable Than Sex,” Andrew Johnston talks about the 80s teen movie that taught him that “a real, intimate connection with someone you can turn to in your darkest hour is more valuable than mere sex — a downright subversive notion in an era loaded with movies about hormone-crazed maniacs desperate to lose their virginity by any means necessary.” And what film was this? You’ll have to click through, but here’s a hint: it’s vaguely related to the item below.
Mr. Skin: first the Wikipedia for nudity in Hollywood movies, then a minor plot point in Knocked Up. Now? It’s a blog. The top entry as of this writing: “Who’s the Hottest Wife of Tom Cruise — Mimi Rogers, Nicole Kidman, or Katie Holmes?” I vote Mimi. Via Fleshbot
Above: a “kiss for the ages” from Frank Borzage’s Desire, via Daniel Kasman.

yes, but Mimi introduced TC to Xenu, so she gets points knocked off for that
