Barbara Sukowa
Nude

German actress Barbara Sukowa has been called strikingly beautiful. Though Mr. Skin likes to think of her as stroking-ly beautiful. The blonde ingénue broke into acting as the protégée of filmmaker Rainer Werner Fassbinder, who cast (and undressed) her in Frauen in New York (1977). At the risk of repeating herself, the corset-clad cutie and her nude boobies also appeared in the director’s film Lola (1981). Next came Margarethe von Trotta’s art film Die Bleierne Zeit (1981) featuring Jutta Lampe and Barbara’s bare breasts! If that’s not arousing enough, the sexy stunner flashes her flesh as a femme fatale in Équateur (1983), wherein she goes full frontal! Soon after, Ms. Sukowa took home the Cannes Film Festival Award for Best Actress per her titular performance in Rosa Luxemburg (1986). If only she would have taken us home instead! For the crime drama Hierankl (2003), Barbara proves baby got back — and perfect posterior! More recently, she and Martine Chevallier revealed their lesbian preferences in the dyke-namic romance Two of Us (2020). But, here at Skin Central, we’re more turned on by the starlet’s titillating turn in the Michael Cimino movie The Sicilian (1987). Adapted from Mario Puzo’s novel, the action flick stars Christopher Lambert and Terence Stamp, but the real scene stealers are Barb’s three Bs! Even when clothed on film (Europa, M. Butterfly, Hannah Arendt), on stage (As You Like It), and on TV (St. Pauli Landungsbrücken, 12 Monkeys), Fräulein Sukowa manages to make the world a skintastic place to be!
