![]() ![]() CB “Psycho” (Alfred Hitchcock, 1960) “ Psycho“ Everett Collection / Everett Collection (Later on, during the Siege of Babylon, there’s a kiss between two men.) Some of that libertinism would pop up again in Griffith’s later “Orphans of the Storm,” and it would carry on through the early sound era with Claudette Colbert famously taking a nude bath (though only seen from the back) in asses’ milk in 1932’s “A Sign of the Cross.” But even a couple of decades earlier, Griffith was pushing boundaries in his own right. ![]() Griffith’s “Intolerance” features a full-on orgy with women wearing see-through fabrics or bathing in the nude. Silent movies and early sound films have all manner of transgressive content. In the U.S., the self-censorship of the Hays Office wouldn’t come about until the late ‘20s (and wasn’t enforced at all until Joseph Breen took charge in 1934). It may surprise today’s viewers just how liberated many silent films are in their depictions of sexuality. All are movies that wouldn’t have the same artistic impact without these moments.Ĭhristian Blauvelt, Christian Zilko, Jude Dry, Kate Erbland, Ryan Lattanzio, and Samantha Bergeson contributed to this story. Below is an incomplete timeline of the nude scene throughout cinema history. The best nude scenes convey vulnerability, intimacy, eros, and so much more. One place to start that reassessment is to look at the history of the nude scene since the silent era. ![]() So maybe we should take nudity seriously again. Although, the unsettling reaction nudity can elicit in audiences is once again getting explored with some frequency in the horror genre see scariest scenes in the hugely popular “It Follows” and “Hereditary” for starters. It’s been a quarter-century since nudity was a central feature - and dramatic plot point - of what was then the most widely popular Hollywood film in decades: “ Titanic.” Bared skin in a similar manner in a top blockbuster in 2023 or any other recent year seems unlikely. ![]() Nudity is most frequently used in mainstream entertainment as a punchline. The Best Survival Movies, from ‘Cast Away’ and ‘The Revenant’ to ‘The Martian’ and ‘Alive’Īt times, it can be difficult write about onscreen nudity in anything but jokey terms, especially since nudity has become a fixture of comedy. Are we somehow invading their privacy? Are they invading ours? What should we feel about this parasocial interaction, particularly when it is presented in an overtly sexualized context? So when nudity enters the (literal) picture, it complicates the relationship between viewer and viewed. It’s “content” that deserves an “advisory,” or something akin to “porn,” however the Supreme Court is classifying that these days.Īs many have noted, the very nature of the actor’s job demands the audience look at them. But the nude scene in movies is rarely discussed alongside a Canova marble statue or Manet’s “Olympia.” Movies blur the boundaries between “real life” and artistic indirection so thoroughly that people discuss nude scenes in movies as practically everything but art. The history of painting and sculpture is full of nude portraiture, which is regularly and comfortably classified as art. That line from Akira Kurosawa’s “Ikiru” sums up a lot of feelings people seem to have about nudity in film. ![]()

![]() For example, it can be determined experimentally that benzene contains two elements, carbon (C) and hydrogen (H), and that for every carbon atom in benzene, there is one hydrogen atom. In many cases, the molecular formula of a substance is derived from experimental determination of both its empirical formula and its molecular mass (the sum of atomic masses for all atoms composing the molecule). (credit a: modification of work by “osseous”/Flickr)Īs discussed previously, we can describe a compound with a molecular formula, in which the subscripts indicate the actual numbers of atoms of each element in a molecule of the compound.

We will discuss chemical bonds and see how to predict the arrangement of atoms in a molecule later. The lines represent bonds that hold the atoms together. The structural formula for methane contains symbols for one C atom and four H atoms, indicating the number of atoms in the molecule ( Figure 2.16). The structural formula for a compound gives the same information as its molecular formula (the types and numbers of atoms in the molecule) but also shows how the atoms are connected in the molecule.

![]() Venice’s unhoused residents have formed dozens of encampments, several of which abut houses worth seven or eight figures that occupy lots where modest bungalows once stood. What was once a community with many income levels now has basically two strata: the wealthy and the homeless. Twenty-five years ago, you could buy a 2,000-square-foot house for $300,000 that same property today is worth close to $2 million. The conflict can’t be separated from the gentrification that has transformed the area over the last two decades. And those politics have become bitter and all-consuming. Though he spends his days working with the homeless, King is the rare Venice resident who doesn’t really get involved in the neighborhood politics of homelessness. Then he asked the social workers on his team to help find him a bed for Simpson to move into that day. “I still have a quart of vodka to drink,” Simpson said, “but I’m the friendliest drunk there is.” ![]() He might get a bed, access to showers and three meals a day. King asked whether Simpson wanted to move into a temporary “bridge shelter” a couple of blocks away. His blood pressure was lower now than back then, but still a little higher than ideal. King pulled up Simpson’s file on his smartphone, from which he accesses patient records - the clinic had treated Simpson for a wound on his hand two years earlier. Simpson also said he had gotten his first Covid vaccination the week before and showed me his card. “I really shouldn’t be alive,” he told me. ![]() As his blood was being drawn, he kept apologizing for “wasting everyone’s time.” He explained that he had been homeless for 30 years - he is 64 - and that his family banished him because of his alcoholism. Simpson hesitated, but soon he scrambled up into the van. “Do you want me to be your doctor and sign you up as a patient?” “I’ve been drinking all morning? Is that OK?” King asked him if he’d like any medical attention. He wore a mask that covered his salt-and-pepper beard. John Simpson, 64, peeked out from a ragged two-person tent. King pulled up and parked his van beside the Third Avenue encampment, where 30 or so people were living. When I go to the beach to surf, I see my friends that I surf with and my patients.” As soon as he makes a stop on his rounds, patients emerge from cars and tents to ask about housing, about treatments, about the local gossip. When I go to the grocery store, I see my patients. ![]() “I live within blocks of encampments and the clinic. “I’m immersed in this neighborhood,” he told me during one of his morning rounds in early April. He lives in Venice himself, surfing at the beach and biking in the Santa Monica Mountains, about 10 miles up the coast. When King, who is 52, started practicing street medicine 14 years ago, he quickly became a local fixture, recognizable for his handlebar mustache and shoulder-length hair. ![]() He also sees patients at a shelter and keeps hours a couple of nights a week at the Venice Family Clinic. These include the one on Third Avenue, another on Hampton Drive, another on the boardwalk, one that used to be along Penmar - typically, clusters of tents, plywood structures, tarps strung up overhead. King is especially proud of the extra step and handle he installed, which helps patients climb into the vehicle when he visits the various homeless encampments around Venice, Calif. From the back of the van, his team - a nurse, caseworkers and often a volunteer - draws blood, checks vitals, conducts psychiatric evaluations.

We can show it graphically in the following graph.Įxample 4: The following figure shows a triangle on a coordinate grid. So, for the point K (-3, -4), a 180° rotation will result in K’ (3, 4). Solution: As we know, 180° clockwise and counterclockwise rotation for coordinates (x, y) results in the same, (-x, -y). Show the plotting of this point when it’s rotated about the origin at 180°. It will look like this:Įxample 3: In the following graph, a point K (-3, -4) has been plotted. ![]() ![]() So, for this figure, we will turn it 180° clockwise.

Thus, for point B (4, 3), 180° clockwise rotation about the origin will give B’ (-4, -3). Similarly, for B (4, 3), 90° clockwise rotation about the origin will give B’ (3, -4).ī) For clockwise rotation about the origin by 180°, the coordinates (x, y) become (-x, -y).
