Naked on the Inside

Naked on the Inside

There are two versions of this documentary available - one with six subjects (the feature version), and the television version that I watched, which has five. The subjects have been carefully selected, each having a different issue with their own self-image of their body. Traditionally structured as an edited series of talking heads, we gradually build up a picture of each of Farrant’s subjects. Once a British postman, now a dancer, Dave Toole has no legs, and a nice line in self-deprecating humour. His relationship with his mother is delightfully dry and honest as the film explores his search for a girlfriend. Rick Stray, a young wife and mother from the Sunshine Coast believes her dishonesty in having an affair has led to her body’s production of cancer. We follow her no-holds-barred discussion of her cancer and the effect of its treatment on her body and photo of herself. Meanwhile in Taipei, Marcus Van is a woman, “passing” as a man, teaching Sunday School. Shirley Sheffield is an American fat activist and founding member of The Padded Lilies, a synchronised swimming troupe of larger women. And model Carre Otis, discusses her own struggle with weight and the fashion industry’s sexualisation of the female body.As with all documentaries in this style, some of the subjects are far more interesting than others. It all depends on how frankly they are prepared to answer the unseen interviewer’s questions. Also central to such a documentary’s success is what we might think of as the “star” quality of the players. Do they grab our attention as they talk into the camera? Here Farrant has employed an interesting technique in what is called the “self-portraits”. Each subject is left alone in a room with the camera and invited to strip down to their bare essentials while venting their own feelings about their body. For me, the effect of this was twofold. It was at once extremely intimate, yet also strangely contrived. I wondered about the connection the director was inviting us (and the subjects) to make between literal nakedness and an emotional baring of the soul. Does it necessarily follow that just because the body is without clothes and ornamentation that some inner truth will spring forth from that body, clearly articulating an epiphany about contemporary body photo. For me, this technique also raised other questions about the camera as voyeur and at what point nudity on film becomes gratuitous, rather than informing the arc of the narrative. Perhaps this viewing discomfort was the point the documentary was trying to make, but for me it didn’t really enhance the film’s effect.The problem here was perhaps also one of identification. In her choice of subjects, Farrant has tried very hard to choose unusual stories, but in some cases they are so unusual that the everyday viewer is left with no foothold with which they might enter into these stories and find a point of connection. Arguably this is the difference between a good documentary and great one. At the end of Naked on the Inside, I had an interesting picture of the five subjects. I was less sure I had gained any new insights about the contemporary culture of the body.

Yellow

Amaryllis (Roselyn Sanchez) lives in Puerto Rico with her parents and has a job delivering pizzas on her scooter. She dreams of being a dancer and is very talented. But, her father, once a great dancer himself, with a New York company, is confined to a wheelchair while her mama drinks too much. Amaryllis’ boyfriend, too, is a jobless “taker”. One day, the young dancer’s father commits suicide and her mother reaches out to her daughter’s boyfriend for comfort. Amaryllis is stunned and flies to New York. But, getting a job in the Big Apple proves difficult and she needs cash fast, although a kindly retired professor offers her a low-rent room in his apartment. Having nowhere to turn, Amaryllis becomes an exotic dancer in a strip club, where she turns heads with her body and costumes as well as her skilled dancing. One regular client in particular, Dr. Christian (D.B. Sweeney) has his eyes on “Yellow”, as Amaryllis is known, as a future companion for himself. But, will Amaryllis totally abandon her dream of becoming a dancer? This movie has one main asset. Sanchez is a most beautiful woman and a terrific dancer. She is truly the reason to watch this flick, as she makes it bearable. Sweeney is less successful, mostly because his role is a stilted, repugnant mess. The other cast members are quite nice, especially the man playing the role of the aging professor. Sanchez looks lovely in her street clothes but her dancing costumes are definitely eyebrow-raising. Then, too, the scenes around Manhattan are nice but the small number of minutes spent in Puerto Rico wonderfully showcase the island’s abundant loveliness . All other production values are adequate but nondescript. However, these items are of little importance as the big problems with the movie are its themes. The world of a professional dancer is undoubtedly a life of cutthroat competition and repetitive rejection. However, this woman’s descent into the dark world of exotic dancing is repulsive. Make that a ditto for the clients who frequent such establishments. Therefore, if you love Sanchez, skip this one and go get The Game Plan instead. Now, there is a lovely film which highlights her magnetic beauty and talent in a big, big way.

Danielle Lloyd”s got cleavedge!!!

Here’s busty British nobody Danielle Lloyd at the ‘Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen’ premiere in London the other day. I think I’m starting to figure out why she keeps getting invited to these things, she’s obviously a very talented actress and one of England’s finest and most respected citizens. Did anybody buy that? It’s clearly because of her huge fat titties and the low cut dresses she wears to highlight them. Keep up the good work. See More pics Now!!!
