Nude: In the Valley of Elah 2007 Nude Scenes

Inspired by a 2004 Playboy article by journalist Mark Boal, In the Valley of Elah (2007) is the fictionalized story of a model U.S. soldier who comes home from Iraq and then goes AWOL. Jonathan Tucker's company has returned from duty, but he's nowhere to be seen; his dad, Tommy Lee Jones—a Vietnam vet, passionate patriot, and staunch believer in his son's mission overseas—mounts an investigation into Jon's disturbing disappearance. Jurisdictional issues get in his way, though, as the Fort Rudd military police and civilian coppers fight for control of the case. The one person who seems to truly care is detective Charlize Theron, a small fry in the department who grows increasingly suspicious of the Army's official line on the case. As their investigation goes on, Charlize, Tommy, and Tommy's wife, Susan Sarandon, uncover exactly what they don't want to find. Critics praised Tommy's turn in In the Valley of Elah, calling it "great, selfless, and heartbreaking" (David Denby) and "superb" (Roger Ebert).
