10 Directors Not Afraid of Nudes (11 person items)

" Adrian Lyne's movies are pretty much synonymous with dark sex -- think, 9 1/2 WEEKS (1986), INDECENT PROPOSAL (1993), FATAL ATTRACTION (1987), LOLITA (1997), and UNFAITHFUL (2002). But on the set, while shooting nude scenes, Lyne claims the atmosphere is much lighter. He says he sets the mood by acting like a "demented cheerleader," shouting encouragement like, "Good, good, good. Give me a little more of that. Show me your beast. Water, water! Great!" He'll even pop a bottle of bubbly to help "
