13 Short Cuts (1993)
Actor who stripped down: Julianne Moore
Why they’re fully nude: Blame it on the artistic process.
If the Academy handed out little Golden Guys for crotch shots, Julianne Moore would be Meryl Streep. This is a woman who isn’t afraid to disrobe, whether she’s simply showing some T&A in the ultra-naked Madonna vehicle Body of Evidence or perfecting her vaginal art in The Big Lebowski.
She takes it all off in the name of art in Robert Altman’s Short Cuts, in which she plays a painter who spends a whopping 202 seconds of screen time arguing with her husband (Matthew Modine) while her pants have taken up residence elsewhere. Talk about baring it all for your craft!
