Nudism or nudist mentioned in movies

Maybe there is already a thread for this, but a quick check didn't reveal any, so I'll start with this one from The Muppets Take Manhattan, where Kermit the frog is in hospital after being hit by a car and suffering from amnesia:

Doctor: Now, the problem is you were found with no identification and oddly enough wearing no clothing. So I did some research into the major nudist colonies in the area, and I think Ive come up with something: You are Enrico Tortellini from Passaic, New Jersey!

Kermit's reply: Well, I really dont feel Italian.

RE: Nudism or nudist mentioned in movies

Interesting topic. The question is what do you define as nudism. There are plenty of references to non-sexual nudity in movies or even acts of nudity. 'The last picture show', 'Walkabout' etc. Even Titanic when Leo draws Kate nude. Plenty of other I'm sure - they actually do a feature on 'nudes in films' in the back of 'H&E' the naturist magazine in the UK

Just to be clear: I'm talking about the words "nudism" or "nudist." It could be something as simple as, "What the heck are you anyway; a nudist?" I'm not looking for movies or scenes ABOUT nudism, just scenes that MENTION it. Leo drawing Kate nude is a nude scene, but the words nudist and nudism (or naturist and naturism, for that matter) aren't uttered, so it wouldn't qualify.

You mean we have to listen to the words in movies, I just look at the pictures :)

I suppose a realistic portrayal of a nude beach or nudist resort would be acceptable.

There's an Australian movie called "Maslin Beach" that takes place on the titular beach. Everyone's naked in it, tho i don't remember if they ever refer to nudism.
If everyone's nude and obeying the usual rules (i.e., no public sex), then I'd say it counts. I'm not looking for movies or scenes ABOUT nudism because I'm more interested in the portrayal inMAINSTREAM movies, not documentaries. Leo drawing Kate nude is a nude scene, but it doesn't occur on a nude cruise, nor does Leo ever ask Kate: "You mean you've never been to nude beach?!?"

The Pink Panther movie A Shot In The Dark, the scene where Inspector Clouseau visits a Nudist colony

I remember that one.

"Confetti" is a mockumentary about three couples competing for a most-outrageous-wedding award, including a nudist couple:

"The Road to Wellville" is a possible mention. (Not explicitly about nudism, but there's a certain overlap):

RE: Nudism or nudist mentioned in movies

Came across one today, quite by accident. My sweet wife was watching AMC, a 1968 movie with Burt Lancaster called "The Swimmer", in which the Lancaster character decides to "swim" his way across the county from backyard pool to backyard pool. At one wealthy friend's estate, it gradually becomes apparent that they are in the yard nude, and you finally hear a phone conversation they are having with an adult child who is refusing to bring the grandchildren around unless they put on their suits. Burt Lancaster strips down while chatting with them, holding his suit strategically in front of his assets. His butt got substantial airtime, and was decidedly white, lol.

There's the nude motorbiking chick in Vanishing Point, though I don't recall if the word "nudist" was mentioned.
Also nude swimming and sunbathing in the movie BillyJack
