I just found an interesting post on one of my favorite blogs about the best hollywood movies with strippers in them. It's a good list for those interested in finding movies where stars have gotten down and dirty on the pole!

Showgirls-Lots and lots of flesh-really poor script. Having seen her in Saved By The Bell, I liked seeing all of Elizabeth Berkely, and often.

Striptease-Demi Moore's giant bolt ons. I much preferred the B cups she offered often in About Last Night.

Dancing at the Blue Iguana- A plus for Daryl Hannah naked, but you also see lots of Sandra Oh from Grey's Anatomy (not great-she's a horse face). You slso see a lot of several other average looking actresses.

It's too bad no Hollywood type will set foot in a real club to see what really goes on inside because these three are the only stripper flicks of note.

Supposively there are some cool stripper scenes in the recently acclaimed movie "The Wrestler", and we still have that Jessica Biel stripper movie to look forward to this year. One of my friends was an extra on that set, and she thinks that we'll see some goods in that movie.

My guess is that Jessica Biel will not deliver the goods in The Wrestler. Just like Rose McGowan didn't in the beginning strip scene in Grindhouse or Lindsay Logan in I know who killed me. I hate when actresses play strippers and then refuse to take anything off. What's the point. I think that's why Showgirls has become a cult classic because Elizabeth Berkley definitely takes it all off. Can't wait for the blu ray version.

Here is some movie stripper trivia. Mia Kirshner who plays Jenny Schecter in showtimes the L Word. Early in her career she played a stripper in a movie called Exotica. Rumor has it they had to wait to release the movie for several years after it was shot cause she was only 16 at the time they made it. I've seen it and it's not so good but was shot in Canada so there is a lot of completely nude dancers in the background. Mia doesn't show a whole lot but enough that if the ratings board would have known she was only 16 it probably would have never been released. True or urban legend who knows but it's still available for rent so check it out if you want and decide for yourself.

Didn't know the Jessica Biel movie actually finished. Interesting.

A new movie's coming out about the porn industry called Finding Bliss with LeeLee Sobieski. She plays someone that takes a job at a porn studio so she can use their equipment to make her own movies. Interesting but I doubt she shows anything because she never has before, which makes no sense in a movie like this.

Mia Kirshner trivia; great info, robofan! Fans of the Fox TV show "24" affectionately refer to Mia as "Naked Mandy." She was a part-timer in the first couple of seasons.

There was a great but brief strip-club sequence in "Carlito's Way," with Penelope Ann Miller showing her perfect breasts.
Another movie with a brief strip-club scene that featured much more graphic nudity than typical was "Running Scared."

"My guess is that Jessica Biel will not deliver the goods in The Wrestler."

She's not the one in "The Wrestler"...that's Marisa Tomei, and word has it that she does get naked in it. Biel supposively has already agreed to some level of nudity in the other movie that I mentioned.

"Rumor has it they had to wait to release the movie for several years after it was shot cause she was only 16 at the time they made it."

If I remember correctly, they made the movie in Canada and she was of-age when it was filmed/released. She was born in early 1975, and the movie came out in mid to late 1994.

Sorry got confused thought you were saying Jessica Biel was in The Wrestler. If Marisa Tomei is in it then she will definitely deliver the goods. She had done a lot of nude scenes lately.

"Biel supposively has already agreed to some level of nudity in the other movie that I mentioned."

I hope your right. I would love to see her do a hot strip tease. The name of her movie is Powder Blue. Given the fact that she has recently publicly expressed regret in a nude photo session she did a few years ago in which she showed almost nothing I don't hold out much hope for her strip scene. Then there is always the unrated DVD.

LOL...I think that shoot was when she was a lot younger, but it did help her to be seen as a sexy adult & not just a teenage actress...mission accomplished there...

Marisa Tomei seems to be getting more and more open to doing anything as her popularity goes down...hopefully we'll find her dancing in a real club one of these days!

Maybe the best mainstream Hollywood movie about strippers was the "Players Club". Ultra-realistic ebony film. Terrible films include "Yellow" "I Know Who Killed Me". I have already downloaded Marisa Tomei's scenes from the "Wrestler" from the HUN. I always thought she was hot. I have noticed when TV shows like CSI have a stripper episode, the stripper is never shown in a good light. I guess strippers just get no respect.

Well, I saw "I Know Who Killed Me" yesterday on TV. It wasn't a great movie, but it wasn't super-bad IMO either. Lohan has a super-curvy body (though there was a body double used in some scenes I guess), and some of the stage music that they played was kind of cool IMO. The "plot" was messed up to say the least, but I got a kick out of her Dakota stripper character's swearing. The hints that were dropped about the plot were very, very obvious (even the flickering hand & foot lights at the "Strip T's" club were a hoot).

She could have at least took her top off on-stage...or maybe the club had "rules" about that...they showed other dancers off-stage & in LDs topless though...weird... You do get to see some side-boobage on Lohan in the one stupid sex scene though...oh well...

When one of her characters finally says, "I know who killed me..."...I laughed...

I saw The Wrestler last night at the local independent movie house. I thought the strip clubs scenes were the most realistic of any movie I've ever seen which had them. Hell, the wrestling scenes were, too. Marisa Tomei is up for a nomination for Best Supporting Actress for playing Cassidy in The Wrestler.
