Free the Bacon!

I’ve always had a soft spot for Kevin Bacon. Because bacon. For starters. Also because he was great in what I think was his first serious film role in Barry Levinson’s classic Diner. And also because of the famous Animal Houseremain calm, all is well!” scene that serves as a recurrent meme for our equivalent of the Obama administration’s frequent Baghdad Bob moments.

But here he argues the case for more male nudity in popular entertainment, and I agree. (Though I have no idea what he’s talking about in his discussion of Game of Thrones.  I don’t watch Thrones: not enough sex and violence for me.) A nice satire of Hollywood conventions in two and a half minutes (definitely rated PG-13 BTW):
