Movies for reference

Anyone knows a good movie that could be used for human figure study? One that has naked/half naked people, preferably without mature themes that would just be distracting. Like summer at the beach or martial arts type of movie/s.

Why do you need it to be from a movie? if it is just for studying the human form there are tons of sites for that:

Thanks, my problem with photo reference, especially designated ref sets like the "bodies in motion" and "action poses" is that they're all shot from the same angle. There's no view from above or below even though sometimes there are views from different sides. Movies provide a wider range of camera angles and movements, besides you can pause it anywhere and pick your own angle/pose.

But thanks for the beautiful men, it's hard to find even photos for male reference. The Mohicans is a good idea :)

sure! on that note, apocalypto and the new world are some others that would be useful.

Awesome! thanks guys, The New World makes sense! Haven't seen The Social Network yet, sounds interesting!
