    I loved this movie!

    It was a witty, fun, hilarious movie. Wendy Crewson was dead-on as the bitter writer who falls in love with a younger man. I thought she worked well with Joe Cobden, and Peter Coyote as well.

    The movie was well-written and well-directed. It had lots of snappy dialogue, and a lot of scenes with Wendy's character and Joe's character bantering back and forth. They were good at this and made it very believable.

    The scenes showing Wendy's character with her book agent were funny too. Between the agent and Peter Coyote's character Lionel, there were plenty of good foils for Jackie (Wendy's character) to play off of. I loved this movie!

    surprising!

    I went into this film on a blind date, not knowing a thing about it -- at first, judging from the title, I thought my somewhat dim-witted date was trying to send me a not-too-subtle message. Anyway, I forgot all about my second-rate date once the movie got going -- the film was great! Often hilarious, and often touching, in just the right places. I was charmed, and want to check out more films by this director (but haven't had a chance yet). Oh yeah, the acting was good, too. Warmly recommended.

    Exceptionally witty film

    There is a lot of punch in this little movie! It is intellectually witty and engaging without becoming too much of a farce. The dialog is laced with scarcasm and bite and draws the audience to relax and just enjoy the ride. Wendy Crewson is fabulous! She shoulders most of the movie (which is a real treat for her fans!) and she does so with effortless grace. We laugh with her, we cry with her, and we cringe FOR her in some scenes! Suddenly Naked is simply a treat! Watch it expecting to be entertained, and you will be!

    Supposed to be funny, lovely little comedy

    Suddenly naked was supposed to be funny, lovely little comedy, but turned out to be surprisingly bad. Few good jokes, but otherwise too little saying. Actress in the leading role was not that bad, but I was irritated by the way she had to talk or mumble all the time, I guess she was trying to be cool - however, I found it repulsive.

    A LITTLE GEM

    Stumbling upon this film was quite a pleasant surprise for me. Seeing the name of Peter Coyote was enough to warrant my time. Little did I know I would be laughing out loud in response to this smart quickly paced dialogue. Slowly but surely the deep-seated vulnerabilities of these over-the-top personalities rise to the surface. I would love to gather a group of friends to view this little "gem" of a film. An endless round-robin of comments and spirited discussion would surely follow.
