I remember this one back in the day was mainly being sold on the fact that supermodel Elle MacPherson appears naked in it (a perfectly good reason to watch a movie BTW). But its not really very exploitative at all though. Its an Aussie period drama about an uptight minister (Hugh Grant), who is sent to visit an artist (Sam Neill) who is producing erotic paintings which are offending the church, with the purpose of convincing him to stop producing this decadent art. But while there his wife (Tara Fitzgerald) starts to be drawn towards the sexually liberated world of the artist and his three models. This is a pretty good movie, with fine performances all round, including Elle MacPherson in a very rare acting role. It balances the comedy, drama and erotic elements very well and is all-in-all quality Aussie effort.
