Victor,

I haven't seen the Master and Margarita series, but another full-figured movie in which there is substantial and lengthy sequences of bosmatic presence is a surprising one- Greenaway's "Prospero's Books" (1991). The numerous scenes in Prospero's magically created island study in which hundreds- well, maybe a hundred- naked men and women are performing presumably various forms of experiments/rituals/dances. This is done in a surreal manner without interaction between the characters and without a sexual component. The body shapes have the kind of range of ordinary and attractive you mention in the "M&M" sequence.

This is not a perfect movie- I didn't like the interruptions with narration to show various "magical" books- these might have been better placed over th eopening credits, but the concept and visual realisation is memorable and is the first depiction of "The Tempest" with this kind of magical air to it.

I'm not an avid follower of Greenaway,- and hated "Cook Thief Wife Lover" but I did like "Belly of an Architect" and more recently was very pleased with Lumière et compagnie (1996) which uses an 1895 camera in imaginative 50 second short films.

Cheers,

Bambi B
