THE FIRST NUDIE MUSICAL

A PARAMOUNT RELEASE Released by Imaged on DVD

MPAA CODE RATING:  R (RESTRICTED)

THE STORY (From the Original Press Release. Annotated by Michael Shayne in bold type.)

Young hotshot producer Harry Schecter (STEPHEN NATHAN), heir to Schecter Studios, must make porno flicks to keep the place out of the hands of the receivers.   Aided by his loyal, sensible, wisecracking secretary Rosie (CINDY WILLIAMS), and unknown to his aging retired father, Harry turns out nudie quickies. Following a few flops, Harry's investors balk at coming up with more money.  That is until a remark by Rosie gives Harry a brainstorm—he is going to make the first nudie musical!  He sells the investors on the idea with the title song The First Nudie Musical, assisted by gum-chewing chorines who dance the number around Harry's tacky, smoke-filled office.

he vulturous moneymen are convinced, but they grind a rough deal. Harry must deliver the picture in two weeks or lose control of the film— and thus the studio.  In addition, he must hire as the director an investor's nephew,

 A casting call draws a crazy collection of porno vets and innocent hopefuls. 

The ensemble ranges from Miss Joy Full (SUSAN STEWART)

and George (ALAN ABELEW)

to blonde, blue-eyed Susie (LESLIE ACKERMAN),  fresh from Indiana,

 and Latin firecracker Juanita (DIANA CANOVA),

 trailed by a jealous, knife-wielding boy friend Arvin, alias "Riff" (FRANK DOUBLEDAY).

Susie lands a role and races joyfully down Hollywood Boulevard singing "The Lights and the Smiles."

John Smithee (BRUCE KIMMEL). John turns out to be a naive, virginal dumbbell, completely ignorant of filmmaking.  Nevertheless, Harry is stuck. The show is on.  John shows up in vintage directorial garb, complete with jodhpurs and beret, drops pretentious cinema jargon, and tries to talk dirty to the amazed cast and crew.

Directing sex scenes, he is too embarrassed to look at the actors.  Harry sends the boy for dozens after dozens of donuts and directs the film himself. Rosie aids him at every turn and sees leading lady Mary La Rue (ALEXANDRA MORGAN) make a play for Harry.

Somehow the scenes are shot. Butch lesbian (NANCY CHADWICK) reveals herself to sweet Susie as a "Lesbian-Butch-Dyke." 

A tuxedoed gent sings a ukulele lullaby, "Orgasm" to a couple in bed. 

On the big production number, "Dancing Dildos," John goes wild on the camera crane, carrying Rosie aloft and wrecking the scene. 

Juanita performs Pervision

Mary kicks George (actually another actor. She kicks him out in another scene.) out of bed and a stuntman (actually a stuntcock) (JERRY HOFFMAN) is called in to consummate the scene. 

Where Is The Man musical number was here and edited out.

Mary serenades George with "I'll Kick You With Boots." (This musical number was dropped from the film. It is seen briefly in a montage and can be heard as audio only extra on the DVD.)

The deleted "Plumber Scene" also went here. John Kirby played the bad porno actor. He is credited although the scene was cut out.

Harry sends him for script changes to Madame Wanda's, where aggressive ladies of the night ask "Honey, What Ya Doin' Tonight?" and provide the answer all night long.

Mary kicks George out of bed

In the final days of shooting, Harry is fed up with Mary's Prima Donna act and fires her. 

Moreover, a transvestite mugs George.

John arrives back from Wanda's a changed man.

With George out of commission with a black eye; John suggests that Harry do the big production number

So there's no one to perform the leads in the final number—until Harry and Rosie don tux and white satin gown and glide onto that ebony floor to do "Let 'Em Eat Cake."

Preview night. 

The first nudie musical is a hit!  The studio is saved.  The investors are ready for new deals and Harry will now be able to move on to class-A pictures.

Harry asks Rosie to marry him. 

Arm in arm, they stroll down star-studded Hollywood Boulevard to the strains of "I Don't Have to Hide Anymore.”       

The cast biographies from the original press package with annotated notes by me.

STEPHEN NATHAN, who portrays Harry in "The First Nudie Musical," was born on August 21, in Buffalo, New York.  He received his Bachelor of Arts degree in acting at the Carnegie Tech Drama Department. His professional career began in Hershey, Pennsylvania, where he did a series of musical revues.  In stock productions at Ohio's Huntington Playhouse, which he helped found, he appeared in leading roles in "Marat/ Sade," "MacBird," "As You Like It," "Italian Straw Hat," "Summertree" and "The Comedy of Errors." Nathan went to New York City in 1971 where he originated the role of Jesus in the hit musical "Godspell."  He played the role in both the Cafe La Mama production and the original off-Broadway production.  He was honoree that year by winning the Variety Critics Poll as the Best Actor in a Musi­cal.  He also helped to earn a gold record for the original cast album of "Godspell. "Nathan next played the role of the Courier in Jack Warner's film ver­sion of the Pulitzer Prize-winning musical, "1776," in which he sang the hit song, "Momma, Look Sharp." After the film and a visit to New York, he returned to Los Angeles where he guest-starred in numerous television shows, including "Bonanza," "Rhoda," "The Six Million Dollar Man," as well as various movies-of-the-week.  He was then asked to re-create his original role in "Godspell" at the American Conservatory Theatre in San Francisco, which he did for four months. After completing his role in "The First Nudie Musical" as the hot­shot young producer who runs Schecter Studios for his aging father, Nathan starred with Yaphet Kotto in a two-hour movie-of-the-week entitled "Crunch," which will be a potential fall television series from Frankovich-Self Productions. Crunch never made to series, but he did appear as a regular on the series "Busting Loose" and played the title role in the series "Wonderful World of Phillip Malley. He also starred opposite Didi Conn in the film "You Light Up My Life". But Stephan soon left the acting field and became a writer and/or producer on such show as Family Law, Ink, Jesse, Everyone Loves Raymond, Grace Under Fire, The New WKRP In Cincinnati,  and most recently Joan of Arcadia. He also appeared in the documentary "Dollars to Donuts: The Making of the First Nudie Musical"

CINDY WILLIAMS, who portrays Rosie in "The First Nudie Musical," is a native of Van Nuys, California, but at an early age she moved with her parents to the small town of Irving, Texas, where she lived for nine years before returning to California.  Birmingham High School in the San Fernando Valley was her initiation into theatre for it was there that she starred in such classics as "Our Town," "The Diary of Anne Frank" and "The Madwoman of Chaillot."  Upon graduation, she enrolled in the theatre arts department of Los Angeles City College which has been a training ground for many of today's fine young talents.

After college, Cindy did the usual small roles on television, in­cluding "Room 222" and "Barefoot in the Park," but gradually her obvious talents enabled her to get larger and more prestigious roles in feature films and in television.  Her first real breakthrough came when she was chosen to play the role of "Tooley" in George Cukor's film, "Travels With My Aunt."  She spent three months at various locations in Spain with the stars of the film, Maggie Smith, Alec McGowan and Robert Stephens.  Cindy was enormously pleased to have the opportunity to work with such a prof­essional group and feels that it was an invaluable experience.

Upon returning from Spain, she was immediately cast in her next film, "American Graffiti."  Unlike "Travels," this time she worked with an almost unknown group of actors, but the unknowns all became "names" when the film became an enormous success Following in rapid succession were starring roles in Francis Ford Coppola's "The Conversation" with Gene Hackman and "Mr. Ricco," an M-G-M film starring Dean Martin.  Her television roles have included "The Migrants," a CBS television special, and leading roles in such series as "Cannon," "Hawaii Five-0," "Police Story" and "Petrocelli."

Cindy has an older brother, Tom, and a younger sister named Carol who is an aspiring actress.  Her mother, Frances, still lives in Van Nuys in the family home with a myriad of dogs and cats, most of which Cindy has picked up as strays and brought home to mother.  She is, obviously, a fervent animal lover. Her birthday is August 22, she stands 5"4" and weighs 110 pounds. Her hair is brown and her eyes blue.  Single, Cindy lives in Beverly Hills and has special enthusiasm for all animals, health foods and Egyptian. She is currently the star of the new hit TV series "Laverne and Shirley" which ran for seven seasons. Shirley left shortly after the seventh season began when she gave birth. She remains active acting and producing. She was one of the producers for the two hit comedies with Steve Martin and Diane Keaton Father of the Bride and Father of the Bride Part II. She also worked with Bruce on The Creature Wasn't Nice (aka Spaceship aka Naked Space) and as guest on The Donny and Marie Variety Show'. Since leaving Laverne and Shirley she has appeared on many television series, made for television films and theatrical releases as well. They include: Lois and Clark, Touched By An Angel, 8 Simples Rules, Law and Order: Special Victims Unit, Perry Mason: The Case of the Poisoned Pen, Meet Wally Sparks, Bingo and The Stepford Husbands among many others. Cindy is still involved with animal rights and was married to Mark Hudson with who she had two children

BRUCE KIMMEL, who stars as John Smithee in "The First Nudie Musical," also wrote the screenplay for the film, composed the music and lyrics and co-directed the film as well. Kimmel was born and raised in Los Angeles and schooled at Los Angeles City College, majoring in theatre arts. He has been a guest star on numerous television series, including "The Partridge Family" (five episodes), "Doctor's Hospital," "Happy Days" (two episodes), "Honeymoon Suite," "The Super," "Ghost Story" and "The Young Lawyers." Kimmel co-starred in the West Coast premiere of "Forget-Me-Not-Lane" at the Mark Taper Forum in the Music Center and re-created his role on the Public Television Theatre in America series. Besides acting, he is the author of the book, music and lyrics for the shows "Start at the Top," "A Comedy of Errors" (a musical version of Shakespeare's play), "Feast" and "Twins," all of which have been produced in Los Angeles.  He performed selections from "Start at the Top" on "The Merv Griffin Show" on television. His interest in the entertainment world began when, at the age of eight, to take a breather from O.D.ing on double features at the Lido Theatre in hometown Los Angeles, Kimmel snuck a peek into the projection room  "To me it was like magic," recalls the now-flowering filmmaker. He recently completed a pilot film, "Tabatha," a sequel to "Bewitched," in which he play's Samantha's son. (His version did not make it on the air. It was later redone with a different cast and lasted a half of season.) He has also acted in "Circle of Fear" with Patricia Neal, (Actually it was stilled "Ghost Story" when the episode aired. It was actually the last show to air under that name. The next broadcast the show become "Circle of Fear") "Honeymoon Suite" as Ted Knight's son-in-law and the pilot "Young Love" as a UCLA student. (This was also aired as spin off from The Doris Day Show which also starred Meredith Baxter and Michael Burns. It later aired in its original format (slightly edited to fit a thirty minute spot.)

Kimmel is the son of a restaurant owner who is now a C.P.A.  He attended Hamilton High where he played Tom in "The Glass Menagerie" and Mr. Antropus in "The Skin of Our Teeth." At Los Angeles City College, he directed and acted in stage produc­tions with "The First Nudie Musical" co-stars Cindy Williams, Diana Canova and Alan Abelew. He is currently writing the screenplay, music and lyrics for a new film entitled "Sailors" which will reunite most of the cast of "The First Nudie Musical" and which will be shot in 1976.(The film was never made. Bruce said "Re Sailors: It was meant to follow up Nudie.  There is a script and a full score, which I have a demo of somewhere.  We just never got it together - it was a funny idea and some of the songs were really cute.  It was going to star Stephen Nathan, me and Alan Abelew, with Diana Canova, Annette O'Toole and a third girl I can't remember.) In 1969 Kimmel went to New York.  After directing and playing the lead in a New Jersey stock production of "Stop the World...I Want to Get Off," he returned to Los Angeles.  His starring role in an L.A. production of "Jimmy Shine" gained him an agent and led to his TV acting career. Bruce met his wife Katheryn at the Los Angeles Community College Theatre Arts department. They live in Los Angeles with their daughter, Jennifer, who is five. Bruce and Katheryn are no longer married. Bruce went on to more films like he Creature Wasn't Nice (aka Spaceship aka Naked Space) which he wrote, directed and composed the songs. Cindy Williams was once again his co-star and they work together on the Donny and Marie Show and as well as Laverne and Shirley. Bruce went on to help create the record labels, Bay Cities, Varèse Sarabande and Fynsworth Alley where he has collectively produced over 125 albums and had received two Grammy nominations and is the moderator for the popular internet site for the elusive singer Guy Haines called http://www.haineshisway.com/.  He recently returned to LA theater seen by producing, directing and writing the popular musical revue What If? at the Hudson Theater which was held over twice. He also returned to acting in the film "The Ghastly Love of Johnny X." As a composer he wrote the songs for The Ratings Game (aka The Mogul) and Prime Suspect (aka Trauma) which he directed under the name of Mark Rutland. He also directed and wrote for the cable series Likely Stories.

DIANA CANOVA, the daughter of singer-comedienne Judy Canova, makes her film debut in "The First Nudie Musical" as the singer Juanita, a Latin firecracker.

Diana, a bright and voluptuous 22, was born in West Palm Beach, Florida, in 1953.  She was exposed to show business at a very early age through her mother, from whom she has obviously inherited her flair for music and comedy.  The Latin accent she used in her role stems from her late father, Cuban Filiberto Rivero, a popular Los Angeles television and radio personality.

Diana played a Latin fruit-lover in Bruce Kimmel's Los Angeles stage musical, "Feast," a revue about food hang-ups, and a Roman madam in his musical version of Plautus' "The Manaechmus Twins."  In her years at Los Angeles City College, she also played several other musical roles, includ­ing Marion in "The Music Man," Sally Durant in "Follies" and Polly Peachum in "The Threepenny Opera." As part of her studies at L.A.C.C., Diana starred in a USO tour of "Once Upon a Mattress" in six countries. At age eight, Diana played the Changeling Prince in a Hollywood High School production of "A Midsummer Night's Dream."  As a Hollywood High student, age 15, she portrayed Cordelia in a scene from "King Lear" which won first prize in a national Shakespeare festival.
