I'm a fairly decent fan of the softcore film genre (if you don't know what that is, watch Cinemax at midnight and you'll get an idea what I'm talking about), and recently I just got Emmanuelle 1 and 2 in the mail after ordering them from videouniverse.com.
After viewing them, I went to IMDB.COM to look up some information on the actresses and see what other films they've done, and I was a bit surprised.
In the first film, Emmanuelle, I noticed that the actress Christine Boisson is 17 years old, and has a scene in which she goes topless then masturbates in front of Sylvia Krystel.
In the second, I noticed that the other female startlet is played by 17 year old Catherine Rivet. Not only does Catherine get fully nude in the film, but at the end she has a three way sex scene with Sylvia Krystel and her husband in which she is having sex doggy style, missionary, and then Sylvia performs a realistic (too realistic if you ask me) oral sex job on her.
My question/surprise is simply that they allowed this.

Might not have been made in the US, I suppose.

But to answer your question/suprise..I have no idea, that does seem fairly strange.
I feel weird for clicking this topic :/

Yeah, I felt weird too. I felt weirder when I went to IMDB to find out what countries they were filmed in. France is the answer, no big surprise. I think the age of consent is either 16 or 17 there.

Foreign films have different regulations than American cinema. And being that Emmanuelle is a French film, you have to figure that they're probably a bit more lax than the rest. Plus the first one came out in 74, and that could also add to the laxness of the regulations.

There was a film years ago about young kids getting married to older men
Even the MST3K crew were disgusted (see the Nelson/murphy interview)

There is a huge controversey going on right now about this very topic, if you saw, some 12yr old actress (Dakota Fanning) is going to be in a movie called "Hound Dog" imdb.com/title/tt0415856/where she gets molested and I guess the book/screenplay the film is based on is pretty graphic. There was a big story about it the other day on CNN.

Lets put it this way, where is Mike Jackson living over seas correct he is doing it for the children And yes its kind of weird that they dont have laws with nude scenes for people under 18, but France is France, those wacky Frenchies!

Well in Italy the age of consent is 14, in the UK it's 16, but generally it is lower in Europe and they are European films and a darn site better than the trash thats made these days.
And Keira Knightly was under 18 when she took her top off in The Hole.

Underage sex is kinda like kayfabe in wrestling. There's what everyone is supposed to think, and what we really think. In sex, it's what you should think, and what you should really do.
Nobody waits for the age of consent to get naked. I'd like to think of how many 15yr old boys who are out there that wouldn't hop on top of Carmen Electra if they had a chance. Most people felt their first tit or got off in their teenage years anyway. 17 is nothing in my opinion...I was doing much worse at that age.

Yeah but in the internet age you can get anything you want on import (even the freaky stuff from Holland).
So what happens with live broadcasts that are seen in other countries e.g. WWE fine in US but what about more conservative countries? There would be public outcries about things like a bra and panties match and not because they suck.

I believe the girl who played Julliet in Romeo and Juliet (the original) was about 15 or so...and Juliet is only 13 in the play.........and she was naked.

Linda Carol was only 16 in Reform School Girls and she does full frontal nudity.

While this may be the most bizarre and uncomfortable thread here...
If a child is underage they can appear nude in a movie with parental concent. Keira Knightly, Thora Birch, and others have appeared nude under the legal age in movies.
