Nude Celebs: Charlotte Rampling - This often convoluted mess is beautifully shot by director Alan Parker (The Commitments, Mississippi Burning), but in the end it just doesn't make much sense. Mickey Rourke is at his smoldering best as PI Harry Angel who's hired by creepy Louis Cypher (Robert De Niro) to track down a missing singer, Johnny Favorite. Bodies pile up along the way and Harry meets a naked, chicken slaughtering Lisa Bonet, who used this flick to break her Cosby Show good-girl image. It worked, and got her booted off to "A Different World" as well. A lot of people like this flick, so it's hard to rate it down, but sorry, I'm not one of those people. If you want to see Rourke's best work, go buy Sin City on DVD.
