Non si sevizia un paperino (1972) Lucio Fulci was arrested on child endangerment grounds due to the infamous scene where a fully nude Patrizia (Barbara Bouchet) flirts with the underage Michele (Marcello Tamborra). The charges were dropped when Fulci explained that the actors' close-ups were filmed separately, and that the shot of Michele walking towards Patrizia with a pitcher and glass of orange juice was achieved by having an adult dwarf actor, Domenico Semeraro, stand in for Tamborra (if you look carefully, you will notice how different Semeraro's facial structure is from Tamborra's). https://books.google.it/books?id=Oa4ZDQAAQBAJ&pg=PT224 2016 added: 2024 November, 9

The Possession of Joel Delaney (1972) In an Oct 30, 2020 interview on the "Let's Talk Jaws!" YouTube page, at 20:00, actor David Elliott discusses the controversial scene at the end of the movie at the beach house. He said that working on the movie cost him thousands of Dollars in therapy. He says the whole table scene was not in the original script when he accepted the part of Peter Benson in the movie. He said most of the movie was shot, and then during the last two weeks of shooting they went out to Amagansett, Long Island to a house and the script was rewritten to include the scene requiring him to strip and dance naked on a table and walk naked to the sliding glass door. He says that his mother, who was supposed to be his guardian, was like "sure, fine, whatever." when asked about giving permission for him to film the scene with the revisions. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NdcVpaFDmrA 2020 October, 30 added: 2024 November, 9

Che? (1972) In 2017 Renate Langer accused Roman Polanski of raping her in 1972, when she was 15, just before and during the filming of this movie. Langer said she met Polanski when she worked for a modeling agency, and he was interested in casting her in a movie. When she visited him in the Swiss village Gstaad, she said he had sex with her in his home, despite her protests. About a month later, Langer told the Times, he called to apologize and offered her a small role in his 1972 movie 'Che?' (where she has a nude scene). While on set of 'Che?', Langer said Polanski raped her a second time, despite her efforts to defend herself with a bottle of wine and a bottle of perfume. https://www.vulture.com/2017/10/roman-polanski-rape-accusation-renate-langer.html 2017 October, 3 added: 2024 November, 9

Mio caro assassino (1972) Leoni and Valerii reshaped the script, with particular attention given to the psychological examination of the characters, such as little Stefania's mother, who sinks into madness after the loss of her girl, or the pedophile uncle, completely rewritten in the process. “It was a character that you could not tell what he was in the film for, so we told ourselves, 'Either we take it out of the film or we develop it'. And we had the idea of the naked little girl that appears at the door of his studio during the commissioner's visit...” (from book "Tonino Valerii: The Films") https://books.google.com/books?id=mtLIDAAAQBAJ&pg=PA66 2016 added: 2024 November, 9

The Blood on Satan's Claw (1971) Actor Antony Ainley, who plays a preacher seduced by Linda Hayden's character, once said in an interview "When it came to doing the nude scene where Angel (Hayden) comes into the rectory at night and disrobes this was done at least three times and Linda was spot on with every take...she was a total professional with a refined sense of the erotic unusual for her age...I believe she was only 17 at the time." https://web.archive.org/web/20090704163014/http://www.acidemic.com/id92.html 2009 added: 2024 November, 9

Un posto ideale per uccidere (1971) For the main role, Umberto Lenzi wanted Anna Moffo, a very attractive opera singer who in those years had embarked on the road to cinema. Moffo accepted, at first, but later backed out, just a few days before the start of filming. So Irene Papas was chosen, a very good actress who, however, immediately vetoed any nudity. "I accepted Irene Papas - explained Lenzi - hoping that she would let me convince her to film at least some of the more daring scenes, leaving the more racy ones to a body double, but I found myself up against a wall". If he can't push with the mature woman, he will push with the young girl - thinks the director - especially since a radiant and already very busty Ornella Muti was chosen for the part. But life wasn't easy with her either: "Muti was stupendous, but when the film was made, she was seventeen and a half years old and it was impossible to make her undress. I tried, but once, after showing half a breast, she burst into tears and I had to give up. Moreover, she had a very jealous boyfriend and a mother who was always watching over her". So it was Antonia Santilli, an aspiring actress who had ended up on the set by chance as the girlfriend of the director of photography Alfio Contini, who lent her body for all the spicy scenes of the film, acting as stand-in for both Ornella Muti and Irene Papas. https://www.cgtv.it/news/un-posto-ideale-per-uccidere-speciale-nocturno/ 2017 February, 8 added: 2024 November, 9

Sweet Sweetback's Baadasssss Song (1971) In a 2010 interview, asked if his son Mario was excited or weirded out about the opening sex scene, Melvin Van Peebles said, "He didn't want the kids at school to see him doing that. You know kids, I told him not to worry about it, shut the fuck up and do what I say. Now, every time he gets a broad he says, 'Hey honey, come and watch me in this movie.'[...] What I found very interesting, is that people couldn't believe I used my own son. Everybody's somebody's kid. If it was so wrong, why would I do it with somebody else's kid?" https://www.vice.com/en/article/melvin-van-peebles/ 2010 June, 1 added: 2024 November, 9

Walkabout (1971) "Nic wanted the scene in which I swam naked to be straightforward. He wanted me to be uninhibited – which I wasn’t. I was a very inhibited young woman. I didn’t feel uncomfortable about the intention of the scene, but that doesn’t make you feel any better. There was no one around, apart from Nic in the distance with his camera. No lights, nothing. Once he’d got the shot, I got out of the water and dressed as quickly as possible. I don’t think people were as obsessed with nudity back then as they are today. I had to jump in the water naked too, which absolutely terrified me. I kept putting my hands in front of my crotch to protect my dignity. My dad yelled down from the clifftop: “Take your bloody hands away!” So I took them away and jumped straight into the cold water." (Jenny Agutter's interview at https://www.theguardian.com/film/2016/aug/09/how-we-made-walkabout-jenny-agutter-nicolas-roeg-luc-roeg 2016 August, 9 added: 2024 November, 9
