Naked Acts

Cicely, a twentysomething black woman and aspiring actress, dreams of landing more substantial roles than her blaxploitation film star mother got. When her ex-boyfriend offers her a part in a movie he's directing, however, Cicely's dismayed to learn it includes a nude scene that she's desperate to avoid doing. Writer/director Bridgett M. Davis' thoughtful look at women's self-images stars Jake-Ann Jones, Ron Cephas Jones, Patricia DeArcy. 86 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English; audio commentary; interviews; bonus shorts "Creative Detours" (1992), "Last Wish" (1992); theatrical trailer; more.
