Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Wyatt There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

Leofwine_draca The first feature-length production from the man who took great delight in the female form, George Harrison Marks, and one of the most popular of all the British 'nudist' movies released at the turn of the 1960s. NAKED AS NATURE INTENDED is a short, hour-long travelogue in which a trio of young and beautiful women tour the English countryside and enjoy the sights of Stonehenge before making their way to a nudist beach.For the most part, NAKED AS NATURE INTENDED is rather twee and old-fashioned; there's no dialogue from the leads, just a voice-over narrator intoning various stuff along the way. The nudist stuff is saved for the last twenty minutes and includes the usual beach volleyball antics and the like. The youthful starlets include Pamela Green, of PEEPING TOM fame. The American release saw the narrator replaced with a smug, know-it-all voice over that repeatedly takes the mickey out of the material, a la MYSTERY SCIENCE THEATER 3000.

caspian1978 Although this his said to be a documentary, it is far from the truth. Less than 60 minutes, this enjoyable early 60's romp helped paved the way for the sexual revolution. This is a low budget simple skin piece which has stood the test of time. Back in the day, products like this would be banned if not hidden from most of the public. Midnight screenings in downtown cinemas that played certain adult themed movies would showcase movies like this for a dime a dozen. Unlike many of the forgotten films that show an abundance of t&a, this movie's attempt to be taken serious helps its longevity. Director George Harrison Marks wants to be an Artist but made his career in adult entertainment. The naked female form has always been the prime subject matter for all artists. With that said, Naked as Nature Intended can be considered art. All the characters in the movie portray themselves but are not non-actors. All have worked in the industry before. Still, they bring a fresh and fun portrayal of young women who want to be "free". All in all a fun time capsule of a movie that leaves the audience happy.

malcolmgsw John Trevelyan became the secretary of he British Board of Film Censors in 1958.He began a liberalisation of the censorship of films.He allowed nudist films to be publicly shown with an "A" certificate provided that there were no shots of private parts.The films were shown in what were called "Continental" cinemas.These proliferated in the West End.There was one called the Cinephone which was almost opposite Selfridges.These films were looked upon as being quite daring.There was no nudity in mainstream films till "The Pawnbroker"broke the barrier.Now days they are rather quaint not to say exceedingly dull.There are plenty of towels and beach balls on display to protect modesty.It all seems so very nostalgic.

John Seal Ah, the healthful benefits of nudism...sun, sand, and the gentle snoring of the audience as they are lulled to sleep by another exciting nude ping pong match. Yes, it's all here in this brisk tour of Cornwall and the Trewyn Sun Club, where our five less than lusty lasses shed their clothing for the liberating lure of relaxing in the buff in a hammock. At least the girls' bodies are completely natural, with no silicone and more than a touch of flab on display. Matinee idol Pam Green (Peeping Tom), wife of director George Harrison Marks, is the big draw here, unless you consider (fully clothed) footage of Stonehenge a big thrill. And how do you like the bounce of that beach ball! Hubba hubba!
