Summary
The article discusses two films that cleverly challenge conventional portrayals of nudity in movies. The first film, "Zootopia," is characterized by action and detective elements for kids, yet also incorporates subtle references to nudity and issues such as racism and stereotyping. The second film, "Flirting," presents a thoughtful story of interracial dating in Australia in the 1960s, featuring brief instances of nudity and requiring some context about the Ugandan dictatorship for full understanding.
