Harriet Andersson
Nude

Mr. Skin wears his heart on his sleeve and his hard-on his jeans for Valentine’s Day babe Harriet Andersson. Born on February 14th in Stockholm, the striking Scandinavian proved to be one of the finest performers to peel off her panties onscreen. Discovered as a 20-year-old by masterful and brooding director Ingmar Bergman in 1952, Harriet was soon starring in a script written specifically for her by the genius of shadow and light. The resultant Summer with Monika (1953) featured black-and-white coverage of Harriet’s uncovered front and back assets. Monika, in the entirety of its original state (a chopped up version titled The Story of a Bad Girl made the art-house rounds in the United States), paved the way for future films that explored the sensual side of strong, independent women who retain and exude their eroticism despite whatever difficult fate befalls them. Luckily for us, Ms. Andersson’s fate as an actress meant being cast in Människor möts och ljuv musik uppstår i hjärtat (1967). Also known as People Meet and Sweet Music Fills the Heart, the X rated comedy has the brunette ingénue showing off her sense of humor as well as her nude boobs! Before retiring in 2007, Harriet lent her sexy presence to esteemed films (Himmel og helvede, Hempas bar, Dogville) and television productions (Kaspar i Nudådalen, Belinder auktioner, Destination Nordsjön, Emma åklagare, Pip-Larssons). Widely regarded as one of the world’s most influential actresses, Ms. Andersson is a bonafide icon of Scandinavian skinema who can give fans a bone!
