A lot of potential to tackle some interesting topics, and could've, in better hands, lead to some important discussions on the contrast between the objectification of women in cheesecake photography, and the lack of objectification in nudism. Alas, it fails to properly explore that. Although, doesn't miss the mark entirely.
Unfortunately, the poster and several scenes may play into the objectification of women, something that could've probably been fixed with better writing and cinematography. The story itself isn't bad, but could've been better, and the dialogue can certainly be improved. And Brenda Denaut and Joel Holt's acting certainly isn't the best, but is passable in the most part.
The interviews with nudists are certainly genuine, and they do seem to share a lot of the same attitudes to the nudists I've been in community with. Really enjoyed those interviews, and I do think they are inciteful into the views of the nudist community in the 1960s (are largely now too).
On the whole, I think it's got a lot of potential that maybe wasn't fully realised. This is exactly the kind of film that should be remade, although, ideally, with the input of a woman in a producer or writer role, and maybe focus less on the nudist angle, and focus more on the mental state of Danielle.
