Nude Celebs: Katrin Cartlidge - A perfect example of what American TV SHOULD be (and isn't), this 1995 made-for-British-TV mystery has tons of nudity by an actress who isn't beautiful but at least looks like a real person. Unfortunately the story plods a little too much to hold the viewer's interest. Still, I wish we did stuff like this other than just on the pay cable channels.
When her live-in boyfriend goes out alone for a night on the town, he turns up several days later, unfortunately quite dead. The police call it an accident, but after finding out that the boyfriend was last seen in the company of several shady characters, the girlfriend sets out to find out what really happened that night.
Unfortunately, her investigation is handled in the typical British low-key manner, and it makes for a slow-paced and sometimes boring movie, aside from the nudity. The ending also leaves more questions than it answers, but fans of in-depth character studies may well enjoy this movie despite its flaws.
Sadly, Katrin Cartlidge died in late 2002 of an illness.
