The actors’ attorney denounced the decision and said they plan to file another version of the suit in federal court.
The film and its theme song were major hits at the time, and — despite the nude scene that briefly shows Whiting’s bare buttocks and Hussey’s bare breasts — it was played for generations of high school students studying Shakespeare’s tragedy. But on the morning of the shoot, Zeffirelli told Whiting and Hussey that they would wear only body makeup, while still assuring them the camera would be positioned in a way that would not show nudity, according to the suit..Despite those assurances, they were filmed in the nude without their knowledge, in violation of California and federal laws against indecency and the exploitation of children, the suit alleged.
The judge, though, found that the plaintiffs “cherry-picked” from the law and failed to provide legal authority for why it should apply to “purported works of artistic merit, such as the award-winning film at issue here.”
