Our Skin Skout has already reported that Shame , starring Michael Fassbender as a Manhattanite sex addict, is absolutely bursting at the seams with nudity. Carey Mulligan makes her full-frontal debut as Fassbender’s estranged sister, and up-and-comers Mari-Ange Ramirez, Charisse Bellante , Nicole Beharie and Amy Hargreaves all bare boobs as his one-night stands. So when the prudes over at the MPAA slapped an NC-17 rating on this bad boy, it surprised…well, no one, actually. The MPAA is notorious for its double standards for violence (Graphic torture? R) and nudity (Cunnilingus? NC-17), and director Steve McQueen sold the distribution rights to his film with the stipulation that the winner could not cut a single frame, no matter what the rating. So distributor Fox Searchlight is still going full speed ahead with Shame ‘s December 2, 2011 release date, despite restrictions on the marketing of NC-17 films. Could Shame be heralding a revival of racy, adults-only dramas (think Last Tango in Paris ) skinfiltrating a theater near you? Skin Central says the PG-13’s reign of non-nude terror has gone on long enough- long live the NC-17! Give yourself a Mulligan with Carey Mulligan nude right here at MrSkin.com!
