First Nude

I remember the first nude woman I ever saw onscreen. It was in a movie called Sidney Sheldon's The Other Side of Midnight. It was also the first "realistic" depiction of sex I had ever seen. I was about 8 years old. I remember thinking that that could not have been a woman because her breasts were so small. It wasn't exactly a sexual experience for me, just sort of a milepost.

The first nude woman I had ever seen other than my mother was an English friend of my mom's who had red hair. I remember being surprised that pubic hair also came in "red". I was about 5 at the time. I know hat this has nothing to do with movies. Allow me to digress for a minute, dammit.
