Nude Celebs: Denise Richards - This 2004 drama from Spain with many titles (The Life, You puta, Whore), is not a drama at all, but rather a documentary with a fictional drama woven around about an hour of interviews with prostitutes. The producers claim: "This film does not use any actors for the interview portions of the film." That's the majority of the movie, and almost all the women in the collage.
In the drama part, a wannabe actress (Daryl Hannah) makes a living as a prostitute while trying to land acting gigs. Her neighbor (Denise Richards) is a graduate student desperately needing money, so the actress introduces her to the world of prostitution.
The drama part is fairly lame and predictable given the rest of the movie, and actually makes up a very small portion of the movie. They could have/should have left it out, but the interviews with the prostitutes are interesting.
Many will not enjoy this movie, but I felt it did a good job of de-glamorizing the world's oldest profession. It also includes quite a bit on porn actresses, which the filmmakers seem to consider as just another type of prostitute. Given that the dictionary definition of prostitute is "One who solicits and accepts payment for sex acts", and given that is exactly what a porn actress does, it's kind of difficult to argue otherwise.
