Revisiting Educating Julie
An overwhelming majority of nudist films, particularly those made in America in the 1960’s and earlier, are simply exploitation films: the joys and health benefits of nudism are preached, but typically they’re just there to give the filmmakers a reason to fit as many naked bodies as they can onto the screen at once.
