Amy Locane, Amy Irving- Carried Away (1996)

"Carried Away" (1996), directed by Bruno Barreto, is a drama/romance film that features notable nude scenes with actresses Amy Locane and Amy Irving. Based on the 1976 novel Farmer by Jim Harrison, the movie explores complex themes of desire, midlife crisis, and human relationships through the story of Joseph Svenden (played by Dennis Hopper), a middle-aged schoolteacher who becomes entangled in an affair with a 17-year-old student, Catherine Wheeler (Amy Locane), while also in a long-term relationship with Rosealee Henson (Amy Irving).
Amy Locane, portraying the seductive teenager Catherine, appears in several nude scenes that are central to the film’s narrative. These include moments where she attempts to seduce Joseph, such as a scene in a barn where she goes full frontal, another where she exposes her breasts while pleasuring herself by the roadside, and a striking sequence where she rides a horse naked. Her character’s overt sexuality is a key driver of the plot, challenging Joseph’s moral boundaries and amplifying his internal conflict.
Amy Irving, playing Rosealee, also has a significant nude scene toward the end of the film. In a poignant and intimate moment with Joseph, she strips down in a kitchen setting before joining him in the bedroom, revealing full frontal nudity and her buttocks. This scene is described as both delicate and emotionally charged, reflecting a deeper connection between the characters. Irving, who was married to director Bruno Barreto at the time, has spoken about the experience, noting that her husband’s comfort with sexuality allowed the scene to focus on vulnerability and passion rather than mere physical exposure.
