NoCalMike 0 Report post Posted May 23, 2006 I was looking at some stats at imdb, and it says she was born in March of 1982, and American Beauty came out in 1999. If you've seen the flick. then you know she goes topless.....am I missing something here or was she under 18 at the time? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bob_barron 0 Report post Posted May 23, 2006 Her parents were on the set when they did the scene and since the movie was "art" they were allowed to do it. From imdb- Thora Birch was only 17, so filming her brief nude scene required permission from her parents, who were both on the set during the filming along with child labor representatives.

Black Lushus 0 Report post Posted May 23, 2006 to add onto Bob's post, stolen from wikipedia: she was only 16, and thus a minor in the United States, when the movie was made, therefore her parents had to approve Birch's brief topless scene in the movie. Her parents and child labor representatives were on the set for the shooting of the scene. EDIT: LOL, bob edited his post at the same time I made mine!

NoCalMike 0 Report post Posted May 23, 2006 I wasn't aware that it was ok, just because the parents said so. I mean my Parents were ok with some stuff that minors weren't supposed to do, but I didn't think that could override the law.... Not that I'm complaining though, those were some nice titties.

Keira Knightley did a nude scene in "THE HOLE" at the age of 16. You can get away with it since it's art and the parents/government official approves it. Yeah, I don't get it either.

It think the age for "Glamour modelling" in England is 16 anyway so they probably wouldn't have a problem with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It think the age for "Glamour modelling" in England is 16 anyway so they probably wouldn't have a problem with it. I think they're ok with toplessness in general overseas. The main problem, as I see it, is that Keira Knightley doesn't have much in the way of breasts. Cute girl, but rather flat-chested. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
