In 1968, the Hays Code was replaced by the MPAA film rating system. Since then, nudity in various forms has become more common. A number of actors have appeared nude or partially nude in films, with female nudity in particular being a common practice; full frontal male nudity, while much rarer, has increased in recent years and on streaming content. [42] [43] Notable actresses who have appeared topless include Jane Fonda ( Coming Home, 1978), Julie Andrews ( S.O.B., 1981), Kate Winslet ( Titanic, 1997), Gwyneth Paltrow ( Shakespeare in Love, 1998), Reese Witherspoon ( Twilight, 1998), Rene Russo ( The Thomas Crown Affair, 1999), Katie Holmes ( The Gift, 2000), and Halle Berry ( Swordfish, 2001). In an interview in March 2007, Berry said that her toplessness in Swordfish was "gratuitous" to the movie, but that she needed to do so to get over her fear of nudity, and that it was the best thing she did for her career. Having overcome her inhibitions, she went on to a role in Monster's Ball, which required her to be nude in a sex scene featuring her and Billy Bob Thornton, and which won her an Academy Award for Best Actress. [44] Some actors prefer to use body doubles or prosthetics for nude scenes. [45] [43] Notable actors who have done full frontal male nudity in films include Richard Gere ( American Gigolo, 1980), [42] Harvey Keitel ( Bad Lieutenant 1992, The Piano 1993), [46] Ewan McGregor ( The Pillow Book, Trainspotting 1996), [46] Peter Sarsgaard ( Kinsey, 2004), [46] Viggo Mortensen ( Eastern Promises, 2007), [46] Michael Fassbender ( Shame, 2011), [46] Chris Pine ( Outlaw King, 2018), [47] and Bradley Cooper ( Nightmare Alley, 2021).

After the end of silent films, movies with sound that included brief glimpses of nudity appeared as early as 1930 with All Quiet on the Western Front. Cecil B. DeMille, later known as a family entertainment specialist, included several nude scenes in his early films such as The Sign of the Cross (1932), Four Frightened People (1934), and Cleopatra (1934). The "Dance of the Naked Moon" and orgy scene was cut for The Sign of the Cross in a 1938 reissue to comply with the production code. Other filmmakers followed suit, particularly in historical dramas such as The Scarlet Empress (1934) – which, among other things, shows topless women being burned at the stake – and contemporary stories filmed in exotic, mostly tropical, locations. Bird of Paradise, directed by King Vidor in 1932, featured a nude swimming scene with Dolores del Río, and Harry Lachman's Dante's Inferno featured many naked men and women suffering in hell. The films of Catherine Breillat, a French filmmaker, are well known for containing explicit nudity. Her film Une vraie jeune fille (1975) contains close-ups of actress Charlotte Alexandra's breasts and vulva and actor Bruno Balp's erect penis, some of which are particularly graphic in nature (including a sequence where an actor attempts to insert an earthworm into Alexandra's vagina). This resulted in the film not officially being released until 1999. Other actresses who have appeared in explicit full-frontal nude scenes in Breillat's films include Caroline Ducey in Romance (1999) and Roxane Mesquida in Sex Is Comedy (2002). Bernardo Bertolucci's film The Dreamers (2003) included extensive full frontal nude scenes, male and female, and graphic sex scenes. Ivan Teo (20 July 2015).

Filmmaking started in the 1890s, and the first feature-length film was produced in 1906. [16] Nude scenes appeared in films from the start of the new invention. Several Hollywood films produced in the 1910s and 1920s, which contained only brief nudity, were controversial. Various groups objected to these features on moral grounds, and several states set up film censorship boards, arguing that such content was obscene and should be banned. Under pressure, the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) created its own censorship agency, the Hays Code, which brought an end to nudity and risqué content in films produced by the main Hollywood studios. The Code was adopted in 1930 and began to be effectively enforced in 1934. At the same time, the Catholic Legion of Decency was formed to keep an eye on the morals conveyed in films and indicate its disapproval by "condemning" films it considered morally objectionable. Theaters would not show a condemned film until this system declined in the 1960s.South Korean lead actor Song Kang-ho appears frontally naked, with his genitals revealed, in the South Korean vampire horror film Thirst (2009), directed by South Korean film director Park Chan-wook; Hong Kong Chinese actors Sean Li and Osman Hung appear frontally naked, with their genitals revealed, in a variety of scenes in the Hong Kong film Permanent Residence (also 2009), directed by the mainland China-born film director and producer known as Scud, as does Thai lead actor Phakpoom Surapongsanuruk, in a scene of full frontal genital nudity and attempted masturbation in the Thailand film Mundane History, directed by Thailand female film director Anocha Suwichakornpong (also 2009).

Kirchner (under the pseudonym "Léar") directed films for Pirou. The 1899 short film Le Coucher de la Mariée starred Louise Willy performing a bathroom striptease.
