deelaundry: man reading in an airport with his face hidden by the book (Default)
Woman in a bathrobe, man in a towel slung very low across his hips

Just saw And Then There Were None from 2015. Have to say I approve of this artistic choice: in a mutually sexually charged het scene, have the man be mostly naked and the woman be mostly covered. YES. Even under that bathrobe, she’s wearing a one-piece bathing suit and when the camera focuses in, it’s on her suit, not her skin.

I want to emphasize that word mutually. I’ve certainly seen men use their nakedness to intimidate or harass women. That is 100% not the case here. Two people who very clearly want each other, and it’s the man whose body is bared, on display, subject to critique, while the woman gets to maintain cover.

PS. Completely rec the series! Also the book!

Also the author of the book, Agatha Christie, who was completely one of us down to the self-insert character.
