If there was one role that was sure to make George Clooney famous it would have to be Georgie lyall. The Scottish actor appeared in four movies which made him an even better and more well known British actor. It was rumored that he had a part in the remake of Charlie Brown and it is said that he also had a part in the TV movie series Kung Mangue. In all those movies he was perfectly nude (as opposed to some of the more titillatingly erotic roles where the characters are barely dressed) and this turned people on. He always managed to add something very erotic and sexy about his body and that is what helped him become such a popular character in the film.
His nude scenes were the stuff of legend and people loved his Scottish accent. But more than that, people absolutely loved his nudity. We can all be completely comfortable as adults with our own nudity but when it is on screen and there are people watching we have to accept that there is some naughty side to our character. This is what made georgie even more popular as a nude scene.
One of the most famous scenes from the films took place at the end of the seventies movie Kung Mangue. This film was so good that the producers of the sequel were afraid they would never get enough audiences to justify the cost of making two more films. So they decided to make a film with nudity! Unfortunately this made georgie even more famous and sexy. The press took the bait and began to ask why was georgie so popular. A nude scene which showed georgie totally naked was even more of a reason to why he became so famous.
So, how did this fit into the story of the Scottish independence movement? Well, it is quite possible that this was part of the inspiration to see Scotland separate from England when James Graham, the leader of the breakaway movement was arrested and made to spend the remainder of his life in jail. His imprisonment influenced Georgette Lyall to take up the nude role. She was then able to fulfill her role as a nude nurse in the movie. It is also quite likely that James Graham was not the only male star to take on the role of a naked nurse in the years to come.
Who would have thought that this humble, shy and diminutive British girl would go on to fame as one of the sexiest and stunning women of modern times? However, it was true. And she has been nominated for eight Golden Globes for her work in the movies. Georgette Lyall also appeared in a number of award winning films including Breakfast at Tiffany’s, Pretty Woman and Some Like it Hot. She has also been nominated three times for an Academy Award for her contribution to the fashion industry. Not bad for a woman who was born in Inverness and whose humble background would have seen her shunned by the mainstream Hollywood industry had she not discovered the art of film acting.
However, it was not until her marriage to an American millionaire that she felt free to reveal her natural body to the world. She achieved the same success in her career as she did in her earlier screen appearances. In fact, she has even managed to secure herself a role in one of her own films. It is hard to say if she had been given the same opportunities as her predecessors if it were not for her marriage. But then, it would also be impossible to say whether she would have the same appeal to men today if it were not for the exposure that she gained in the nude.
