Nude: Mystery Train 1989 Nude Scenes

In one of his most beloved efforts, revered indie auteur Jim Jarmusch rides the Mystery Train (1989) in Elvis Presley’s Memphis. As the film begins, star-struck Japanese teens Jun (Masatoshi Nagase) and Mitsuko (Youki Kudoh) trace the footsteps of Carl Perkins’s blue suede shoes, eventually checking into a quirky hotel where Screamin’ Jay Hawkins mans the desk. During the course of their Memphis holiday, the teens make the acquaintance of a cast of quirky characters, including a British punk (Joe Strummer), a gunshot victim (Steve Buscemi), and a weary widow (Nicoletta Braschi). Deadpan and wise, Jarmusch’s film is also occasionally titillating, as Kudoh gets hot and heavy on two separate occasions.
