Judith Godrèche
Nude

Judith Godrèche is one of the plethora of French actresses that could steal your breath with a mere glance in your direction. Her face is beautiful, but you can only tell if you can make it past her heaving, often-glistening bosom. (French women don’t sweat . . . they “glisten.”) This particular young maiden started off at the tender age of thirteen with a bit part in L’Eté prochain (1985). After a few more background roles, Judith landed her first leading part at seventeen in La Fille de 15 ans (1989), which ironically translates to The 15 Year Old Girl. It features her first topless scene, and it’s enough to give you two black eyes from rubbing your face in disbelief of her devastatingly delicious bosom. Though an arthouse sensation with the release of Ridicule (1996), she had been showing off her full-frontal nudity as early as The Disenchanted (1991), where she disrobed and went for a walk in front of a mirror, showing her enchanting bush and disorienting double bubbles. After her novel was published, she made the obligatory French actress turn opposite Gerard Depardieu in Bimboland (1998), a comedy about a smart woman that becomes dumb after dropping her textbook. Judith finally landed on our shores for a role in the Leonardo DiCaprio flick The Man in the Iron Mask (1998). Thankfully, she stayed put long enough to take a role in another domestic production, Entropy (1999), in which she schooled her American audience on the benefits of onscreen nudity. Be sure to check out her thermo-dynamic slow motion sex scenes with Stephen Dorff. Judith didn’t last long making movies in English. After starring alongside Michael Caine in Quicksand (2003), she acted in French movies, including showing her body that won’t quit in Tu vas rire mais je et quitte (2005) until joining Nicole Kidman in Stoker (2013) and Adam Scott in the American sex comedy, The Overnight (2015). You’ll be thinking about that movie all night, since Judith demonstrates how to use a breast pump, goes for a bottomless dip in a pool, and makes out with Taylor Schilling over the course of two hours. How was this movie not an overnight sensation? Judith returned to the writing world by cowriting and starring in Under the Eiffel Tower (2018). She never shows any skin, but that’s okay. In whatever she’s in, Judith Godrèche’s body will have you saying god damn!
