No boobs on the DVD?


Just curious....it's not the reason I saw the movie, for real....but there were pics and vids up before the movie was released where Amy Adams is putting on her bra, and you briefly see her breasts.

Did anyone notice that the DVD was cropped so you didn't see them? Were they in the theatrical? Did they re-crop it because of the internet buzz?

Anyone know?

"Amy Adams brief topless scene has been censored in the US home video releases. Those frames are zoomed in slightly to omit the nudity where as the framing is left intact on releases outside of the US."

I went to District 9. Don't tell the MNU.

So why did they do that? The DVD I rented still has an R rating.
Is Amy planning on doing another Disney movie and they can't have her "tarnishing" her image?

reply

Amy Adams does not do nudity on film. That could probably he an influence of his Mormon upbringing. Besides, she is better than that considering that she has great acting talent.

reply

But she did in this film. I agree with you though, she is a good actress.What a fun, sexy time for you.

Marky, stop having a hissy fit ok? There are screen shots of the nudity, available in the overseas edition of the movie.

Use grammar-check next time, too.

Jezuz dude.. if ya wanna see hooters the internet is full of porn why not check that out instead of hoping to catch a tittie in some hollywood movie and whining here when you don't see one... there was a hell of a lot more to this movie than that split second.

Can you read?

I was just curious why the had been editted out, and if it was intentional on the studio's part. I wasn't whining, I was interested in knowing if they cropped it BECAUSE of the leaked photos and bootleg video, and if it actually was in the theatrical version (and if it was intentionally left in THEN).

See the post above your's? That one was helpful.

I saw the movie in the theatre and the only nudity I saw was Steve Zahn's bare buns. I think it's pathetic that there are guys that really fixate on some barely there nudity because they are so horny and have no lives.

It's possible to be horny and still have a life too

Yes I am horny and still have a life.

I also find it amusing when people say things like "she is better than that" or "she has talent and doesn't need to do nudity".

While there are many instances of gratutious nudity in film (Hey silicone breasted women got to work too), there are also many instances where the nudity is essential to the scene or develops the character fully.

In this instance, even though she has been with the Zahn character for many years, the act of her getting out of bed and putting her bra on quickly indicates that the character is not all that comfortable with where she is or what she is doing.

The director had a clear vision for what he wanted for the film, with this edit, it detracts from the film and the character development.

And an actress that won't do nudity is truly not a talented actress as they will not give themselves fully to the part or the development of the character they are playing.

BTW, most academy award winning actresses have done nudity in film

Nothing in the original post implies some pervy need for breasts, rather a legitimate question about something odd.

Amy Adams filmed a brief topless scene for Sunshine Cleaning and while the foreign version of the film includes it, the domestic version is cropped so the nudity does not show.

If it was to get a PG-13 rating in the US, that might make some sense, but the film is rated R domestically so why crop the scene after filming but only in the US.
