Marlon Brando and Taylor in Reflections in a Golden Eye in 1967 — Sunset Boulevard/Corbis
Reflections in a Golden Eye (1967)
Far as I can tell, John Huston's bleak study of sexual repression on a military base includes Taylor's one-and-only nude scene. Furious that her domineering hubby (Marlon Brando) has accused her of dressing like a tramp around the house, she stands by a fireplace and, eyes locked on his, her mouth tight with disdain, she removes her blouse, her bra (throwing it into his face) and her pants. And then she leaves the room. Only then do we realize we've never actually seen anything below her shoulders. In a truly masterful piece of screen acting, Taylor has made herself appear stark, raving naked — using only her face.
