Julianne Moore in 'Short Cuts' (1993) — **Julianne Moore, *Short Cuts* (1993)**
Julianne Moore's pants-less scene in *Short Cuts* isn't exactly sexual, but it's still pretty damn intimate. In the iconic scene, Moore's character spends a lengthy few minutes arguing with her husband (Matthew Modine), but this isn't your average marital spat: she's totally nude from the waist down. In a 1993 interview, Moore said that director Robert Altman wanted the scene to be "non-sexual, non-erotic and not at all provocative." Said Moore, "This is a scene about marriage and marital intimacy, and the kind of vulnerability that occurs within a marriage."

Richard Gere in 'American Gigolo' — **Richard Gere, *American Gigolo* (1980)**
Back in his prime, Gere wasn't afraid to drop trou for the sake of art. In one particularly memorable moment in *American Gigolo*, Gere bared it all to clear his name in a murder investigation (if you haven't seen the film, don't ask how those two things are connected). Gere's full-dong scene was a major moment in movie history, but it wasn't even in the original script; according to the actor, it happened as a result of the "natural process of making the movie."

Sharon Stone in 'Basic Instinct' (1992) — **Sharon Stone, *Basic Instinct* (1992)**
Sharon Stone's full-frontal (half-frontal?) scene in *Basic Instinct* is without a doubt the film's most memorable moment. In the sexy scene, Stone is being interrogated by Michael Douglas and a crew of male cops when she decides to use the male gaze to her advantage. As she slowly crosses and uncrosses her legs, she reveals that she's not wearing underwear, sending the cops into a tizzy and throwing them off their game. Sometimes, sex is power.

Harvey Keitel in 'Bad Lieutenant' (1992) — **Harvey Keitel, *Bad Lieutenant* (1992)**
No one does full-peen nudity like Harvey Keitel. In both *Bad Lieutenant* and *The Piano* (1993) Keitel goes pants-less, much to the pleasure of audiences everywhere. As a corrupt cop in *Bad Lieutenant*, Keitel does a lot of drugs, gambles incessantly, has sex with prostitutes, and has a come-to-Jesus moment while totally naked. You know, just normal stuff.

Mary-Louise Parker in 'Angels in America' (2003) — **Mary-Louise Parker, *Angels in America* (Episode 5)**
Before *Angels in America* became a hit Broadway revival, it was an HBO mini-series (and an original 1991 play). Mary-Louise Parker stars alongside a host of other A-list actors in the HBO epic, and she truly gives the role her all. In one pivotal moment, Parker's character, Harper Pitt, has sex with her husband Joe (Patrick Wilson), and afterwards, she confronts him with her naked body. Joe, who has been living with a man for a few weeks, reels, and they soon realize that they can no longer be together.

Kate Winslet in 'Holy Smoke' (1999) — **Kate Winslet, *Holy Smoke* (1999)**
Harvey Keitel appears again on this list, but this time, it's Kate Winslet who's getting naked. In *Holy Smoke* Winslet stars as Ruth Barron, an Australian woman who experiences a spiritual awakening in India. After getting tricked into coming home, Ruth meets P.J. (Keitel), an exit counselor who deprograms members of religious cults. Stuck in a cabin together, the two begin to bone, and their fling leads to this au naturale moment in the Australian wilderness.

Ben Affleck in 'Gone Girl' — **Ben Affleck, *Gone Girl* (2014)**
Ben Affleck's full-frontal scene in *Gone Girl* practically broke the internet. The moment itself is pretty quick (it's of the blink-and-you'll-miss-it variety), but the actor's side-peen is still worthy of a spot on this list. Ben Affleck, you can get of our shower any day.

Margot Robbie in 'The Wolf of Wall Street' — **Margot Robbie, *The Wolf of Wall Street* (2013)**
Before she was a bona-fide movie star, Margot Robbie had a supporting role in *The Wolf of Wall Street* -- not that you could forget. At the beginning of the film, fans get a good look at Robbie's Naomi when she greets her future-husband fully nude. Actually that's wrong: she has on stockings and heels, too.

Bruce Willis in 'Color of Night' (1994) — **Bruce Willis, *Color of Night* (1994)**
This 1994 film from Richard Rush was more or less ignored by critics because of its NC-17 rating, but that gives us all the more reason to appreciate it now. In one steamy scene, Bruce Willis and his co-star Jane March get it on in a pool, and the resulting action gives fans a sneak peek at Willis' junk. There's plenty more sex in *Color of Night*, so don't worry: this scene is just the *tip* of the iceberg.

Sasha Grey in 'Entourage' Season 7 — **Sasha Grey, *Entourage* (Season 7, Episode 6)**
*Entourage* is no stranger to nudity, but in Season 7, Sasha Grey went above and beyond when she and her bush appeared on the hit comedy. The scene in question is fairly innocent -- she's just walking into the pool -- but it sparked massive backlash from fans who preferred a clean-shaven look.
