Toronto Film Fest Part II: Bring in da Nudes, Bring in da Funk

The Toronto International Film Festival keeps delivering the tits. Today we bring you Keira Knightley really, truly naked (as opposed to covered in dripping-wet see-through fabric), new nudes from Marisa Tomei, and Rosie Perez's first baring in the nude millennium. God, we love the cinema.

The other day we told you about Keira Knightley's tease in Atonement, and you thought, "That would be great for a prude like Scarlett Johansson or Jessica Biel, but this is Keira Knightley we're talking about. We need real, unencumbered tits." Well, thankfully Keira delivers in Silk. It's another period piece, but this one has Keira periodically topless. Which will leave you periodically aroused. And for those of you who don't travel in the same circles as Steven Soderbergh and don't attend fancy film festivals, fret not: Silk opens in theaters tomorrow.

We love the trend of older, skingy actresses finally saying, "Aw, fuck it," and ditching their clothes for the camera. It's not quite as satisfying as an actress reaching eighteen and deciding the same thing, but it's far better than if they go the Jessica Tandy route and wait until they're in their eighties. So kudos to Marisa Tomei for repeatedly unveiling her tomei-toes in her forties, most recently in Before the Devil Knows You're Dead. We told you about this a few months ago, but it's nice to see that director Sidney Lumet didn't go the Mike Nichols route and burn all evidence of Marisa's nude scenes after getting the public all excited. That Lumet, he's a class act.

Rosie Perez spent the better part of the '90s getting naked and sassy on camera, but since the turn of the century she's kept her assets under wraps. Perhaps her breasts hadn't gotten over the anti-climax of Y2K and were afraid to show themselves to the light. In The Take Rosie takes out her boobs and butt. We bet you won't even mind that she does it in the presence of John Leguizamo.
