Christine Brücher
Nude

There are so many odes that Mr. Skin can write when it comes to the many delicious treats that I have encountered over my perverse professional life. One, obviously, can be penned to the French; another, to the joy of the bath scene. In French tart Christine Brücher two birds can be killed with one stone. Take La Ville est tranquille (2000), a late entry for this actress, who has been working the boob tube and big screen in her native France since the mid-’80s but hadn’t taken off her clothes until now. Now being forty-six minutes into the film when she lets her flesh bubbles out for a bubble bath. Then about a half hour later she exposes her furry bits after being satisfied by a black lover. The movie title translates into English as The Town Is Quiet, but it looks like Christine wasn’t.
