Did you see that BUSH??


That is all.

There were a lot of bushes in the Golden Country. In the book George Orwell described it as:

[A]n old, rabbit-bitten pasture, with a foot-track wandering across it and a molehill here and there. In the ragged hedge on the opposite side of the field the boughs of the elm trees were swaying very faintly in the breeze, their leaves just stirring in dense masses like women's hair. Somewhere near at hand, though out of sight, there was a clear, slow-moving stream where dace were swimming in the pools under the willow trees.
Very picturesque.

I don't believe that bek-12 was referring to shrubs, hedges and trees, but to Julia's 'bush'. It was indeed quite a sight, and could have done with a bit of pruning.
While on the subject of body hair, it is interesting to note that despite the lack of razor blades, Winston (John Hurt) had shaved his armpits, whereas Julia had not.

It's difficult to say for certain. There's a chance the OP could have studied arboriculture...

Greg, you are quite witty. :)

Brilliant posts, greg. Thanks for the laughs! ;-)


You might very well think that. I couldn't possibly comment.

I knew if I came here, imdb posters would not disappoint.

I really couldn't care less about the state of Suzannah Hamilton's pubic hair.

In this film, she was still one of the most gloriously and incomparably beautiful actresses of all time.

you have lost your humanity

So you're insinuating that bush isn't amazing?

I was thinking she looked more like a child until I saw that. She definitely wouldn't have made it into the pages of late 70s penthouse. Knave or Fiesta on the other hand...

It was the 80's (the filming not the story). Very few people shaved to look like preteens back then.

Story wise, If they couldn't find razors for their faces, it's unlikely there would be lots of personal grooming on parts no one was supposed to see. It is puzzling though how her legs were shaved.

I like it though. Something to scratch your nose on. :)

Trimming and shaving started in the '80's. Check the evolution of Playboy/Penthouse. I'd still vote for Bush!

How many bushes was she holding up?

reply

Just one.

As a confirmed lifelong "bush man", I think Suzannah's bush was glorious. I could spend days exploring it. I hate that shaved look so many women have today. It's a complete turn-off for me. Give me a full bush any day.

Yup. Go Bush or go home.

landing strips are better.

How could you not see that bush?

reply

A real woman, instead of the usual women who have bodies of pre teens.

reply

I suspect the actress made a deal about exactly what she was willing to expose. The "bush" was designed to give some cover for frontal nudity, and I noticed that she was never shot from behind when she was naked. She obviously didn't mind showing her chest.

Please. Women, by definition, do not, and cannot have the bodies of pre-teens, unless they are deformed by disease or anorexia.

What you mean to be saying, I gather, is that post-teen females practice shaving and waxing, thereby achieving a (pleasant, imo) "hairless effect". And why not? The female body naturally tends toward less hirsuteness, and females themselves have helped along Nature's format mostly pleasurably and successfully.

Moreover, modern "Western" cultural mores take Nature's lack of female hirsuteness as far as possible. Again - why not? A hair-free body, consequent to shaving, waxing, creams, whatever - with only two areas obstrusively in rebellion against the general trend, namely, the armpits and groin. "Might as well finish the job" is an attitude by no means anti-Nature (which already designed the less-hirsute female skin) or anti-woman (unless a woman is prevented from exercising her right to sport varying shades of hirsuteness). Bare, i.e., hairless, skin has virtues - aesthetic, visual, and tactile - of its own. Any strange notion, however, that depilation has the effect of returning the female body into a "pre-teen" format is certainly at the bottom of the body-display wish-list.

And how is it that a completely hairless female torso/legs represents a regression or reversion to pre-teen form? What if said female has large breasts, completely at odds with the no-breasts or the breast-buds of the pre-teen female...? Or what if said female has wide hips, completely at odds with the usual narrow hips of the pre-adolescent female? Not to mention the much more heavily muscled frame of the adult woman.

The point is: even with all the hair-removal techniques the world has to offer, no woman is going to look like a pre-teen female.
Rather, she is going to look like a woman with a (hopefully) pleasingly slick, smooth, gleaming, hairless torso, and an equally denuded groin region. She will not look like a pre-teen girl by any stretch of the imagination.

As to our "Julia", she was a fine-looking female with what appeared to be a generous "bush" (whether or not it was all hers or a Manufactured Muff). My own preference is for less wool, but the posters on here who remark on "THAT bush!" are simply showing their ignorance of bush-growth tendencies in adult women. It's really no big deal at all.
