Quick Answer

What is All of Me about?

All of Me is a 1963 American drama directed by Joel Holt about a fashion model recounting her struggles with exploitation in New York and an unexpected connection to the nudist movement.

Programmer's Pick

Danielle’s journey through New York’s underbelly is pure early-’60s sexploitation, but there’s a surprising detour into the sunlit world of nudist camps. Let’s just say the film’s interest in empowerment is as naked as its cast.

Overview

After surviving an assault on the streets of New York City, Danielle is taken in by Bill, a television producer who finds her unconscious. While recuperating in his apartment, Danielle recounts her recent experiences: struggling with being viewed as 'just a body,' her entry into a beauty contest, and an encounter with a predatory modeling agent who promised her a shot at high-class fashion. Her flashbacks underscore the pressure and vulnerability she faces as a woman in the modeling world. Meanwhile, Bill reveals his own interest in the world of nudism, setting the stage for a conversation that contrasts her objectification with alternative ideals. The film blends sexploitation tropes with glimpses into countercultural nudist philosophies.
