There was an awful lot of nudity in this for a PG movie at the time. The two screengrabs here are the scenes in question. This makes me laugh and sorta sad at the same time. I saw this at the movies back then and no one complained about the nudity in COTT so why now? In a day and age where hardcore porn can be accessed by a simple click of a mouse, why are today's kids so uptight about exposed flesh in old mainstream movies? It's the same thing I mentioned recently here:

I'm shocked...SHOCKED I tell you! First Jane Mansfield and now this...this...I can not speak the word! My HEART...(gasp)
