I agree that Basic Instinct needed the nudity, but I also think that Shakespeare In Love required it as well. That film dealt with gender issues and gender reversals and the love scene is so much about her finally being able to be feminine, the nudity was justified. I could have done without it, but I didn't feel like it hurt the film or was unnecessary. And even though it will still become "internet fodder," I can see Platrow looking back and being proud of the scene.
Just to give you an idea of where I'm coming from.
