Jason Segel Enters Exclusive Full-Frontal Male Nudity Club In 'Forgetting Sarah Marshall'
Posted by Molly Friedman at 8:45 AM on April 17, 2008
Judd Apatow has fulfilled his promise to "shake Americans from their squeamishness about male anatomy in movies" by featuring Forgetting Sarah Marshall star Jason Segel completely nude in the movie's pivotal break-up scene. And as the LAT pointed out yesterday, Segel's manhood provides the film's "most captivating screen presence" (sorry, Kristen Bell). But Apatow and his cool comedy clique aren't the first ones to boldly focus their cinematic lens on male actors' full frontal displays. We took a look back on Segel's predecessors to showcase other (pun intended) ballsy big-screen cameos by the likes of Bruce Willis and Ewan McGregor after the jump. Just a warning, this is NSFW.
Back in 1994 when Bruce Willis was still with Demi and still managed to maintain that sexy tough guy image, he revealed the full monty in Color Of Night. And the industry's most dedicated fan of showing off his package, Ewan McGregor, memorably lounged naked throughout several scenes in Young Adam. And we all remember the time from a chiseled Kevin Bacon subtly proved to the world how lucky Kyra Sedgwick is via steamy shower scene in Wild Things.
Before Ewan McGregor, Harvey Keitel was Hollywood's go-to full-frontal actor, stripping down for both Bad Lieutenant and The Piano. But our all-time favourite appearance by a male actor's schlong has to go to Mark Wahlberg in Boogie Nights. Yes, it was a hefty prosthetic, and no, we don't learn just how much junk Marky Mark is packing, but the highly anticipated revelation of Dirk Diggler's legendary package was worth waiting two porn-y hours for back in 1997.

I could never understand what the diffrerence was between female and male nudity in the movies as long they are of legal age and it was consensual.

Apatow has already contributed to the cause with some pretty funny full frontal male nudity scenes in Dewey Cox--although the featured gear was not that of the star.

It never fails. The ones you least want to see naked are the first ones to tear off their clothing.

I've never understood why dudes have such problems with looking at other guy's dicks (which are usually No Big Deal), but expect women to have no problems with watching other women doing full-frontal.

My favorite is bow-legged William Petersen in TO LIVE AND DIE IN LA. You have to change the contrast on the picture, but I swear that not only does Petersen do frontal, he has a boner. Or a half a boner.

Viggo Mortensen in The Indian Runner has a starter boner, just enough for some definition. And because we're all black-barred censorship-happy here, I can only give you this, instead of the full 24 frames per second exposure I have. For five full seconds.

@raincoaster: Uh, FYI I have NOT posted unadulterated nekkids on that blog post. I don't want my blog deleted. Somebody hook me up with a Swedish image server and we'll talk. All I'm saying is, "The Indian Runner" has many rewards.

TO LIVE AND DIE IN LA is one of my top five favorite movies of all time. Petersen owns it, but shares it with an iconic Dafoe. Shocker moment at the end.
Anyway, Petersen had been a college football player, so he was in shape and athletic and brought that to his performance, running, fighting, etc.
Yes, you ladies do get to enjoy seeing his dangler, and you guys will enjoy the topless informant.

Keitel also went full-frontal in "Ulysses' Gaze," but no one saw it except me, and I walked out of it (not after the peen, but after I realized it still had another 1 1/2 hrs and nothing was happening).

@Malis in Wonderland: Oh, THANKS. I had almost forgotten about that. Even without Art's yarbles, BAD TIMING has to be in the top five worst first date movies ever.
@the cajun boy - By codpiece you refer to Vince's pseudo-knob in BROWN BUNNY? It was from a Clair Denis film, I think??
@heyimtalkinhere - LIVE & DIE, it's a good-un. I really liked Petersen in this and was happy to see him again on CSI. Love the car chase by Friedkin. The only drawback for me - the pingy-high end synth score by Wang Chung. Tangerine Dream was unavailable??

The best prosthesis was the one they gave Tom Baker when he did that Pasolini movie. Apparently he was too terrified of the Italian they'd cast opposite him to be confident of ... uh ... performance on the day, so he made something out of a screwdriver wrapped in masking tape. A wise precaution: apparently the woman actually ripped his pants open instead of just undoing the buttons like she was supposed to.
