What??? The director will consult with the talent on what is appropriate for the sake of the film? I think you're mistaken.

I do look at the quality and need for it as we discussed before. I think Young Adam is a great example of how nudity can derail a film. There was so much hoopla over the fact that Ewan’s penis was on screen for like 2 seconds. I know that this is more of a problem in the US, but the focus should be on the film and not a body part. Do I think Young Adam needed the nudity; yes. So the problem here is has more to do with childishness and censorship than it does with nudity in the film. So my question is; is it worth it?
I don't see it this way. I think the issue is with those wanting to see naked celebs in mainstream movies.

Peace...
