Our Staff Picks column is a new addition that takes you back to a time when video stores reigned supreme and the "Staff Picks" section was the place to find out what films were worthy of one's time. Of course, our version has a decidedly nude angle, as we suss out which films from a certain genre with great nudity. This week: documentaries!
Documentaries are known for educating us, for enlightening us on topics that we don't know much about, and for bringing attention to issues. Their focus on reality might not sound sexy, but remember: nudity in documentaries is 100% real. No prosthetics. No simulations. The nudity that comes in documentaries is special for being uniquely real on camera.
Here are our Staff Picks for hot nude scenes in documentaries:
Joke Man
Standup comedians don't often go nude. It isn't typically part of their act. Comedian Jackie "The Joke Man" Martling explores nudity in his documentary that explores the man people don't know behind the many jokes of his they do know. He's well-respected in the comedy industry and was the head writer for The Howard Stern Show.
It should be no shock then that The Joke Man will do anything to provoke the audience - including go butt naked in his own documentary! You can catch The Joke Man's junk here.
The Contestant
Now this is a fascinating story. A Japanese man was essentially tricked into being on a reality TV show in the late 90s. The man, Tomoaki Hamatsu who became known as Nasubi to the Japanese public, was put in a room with nothing in it. He was totally nude. He had to earn everything through magazine prizes.
Oh, and that nickname Nasubi? It means eggplant! We saw his nasubi on camera!
The American Dreamer
This 1971 documentary was made by hippie hottie Dennis Hopper. Hopper was hopping around in a variety of hippie generation films, most notably Easy Rider. The filmmaker and actor made a documentary about finishing his film The Last Movie. It's a movie about a movie.
You don't have to dream big here: Hopper goes nude. We see his ass multiple times. Ah, the American dream.
Big Like Me
Would you like to see a documentary about a man trying to get a bigger penis? That's why Big Like Me exists. Comedian Greg Bergman tries to uncover whether or not he can actually make his cock more massive. Greg goes around the country and interviews doctors about the ways a man can elongate his manhood.
He also talks to Jonah Falcon who is the current record holder for the world's longest penis. We even get to see it! I've got eyes on Falcon like a hawk.
Beefcake
And now for something a little bit different. Beefcake is a docu-drama that includes dramatized scenes and re-enactments while telling the story of Bob Mizer. He was an underground sex god for decades. He was a male model for "fitness" magazines which were most likely used to turn men on. From his bodybuilder frame to his defined cock and balls, Bob was hot to watch on camera.
Bob's reenactments are done by Daniel MacIvor who recreates a lot of Bob's greatest hits. Other hotties include Glen Deveau and Joe Dallesandro who both go nude beautifully, blending reality and fiction with their dramatized scenes.
