Classic Clip now in HD: Backdraft


As a kid, those few seconds of William Baldwin and Jason Gedrick in the shower in 1991's Backdraft were the most memorable part of the movie. Seeing any male nudity when going to the theatre in the 80's and 90's was usually rare for me, so any sighting, no matter how brief, usually helped even the weakest movies seem like masterpieces.


As you can see from the caps above of an older VHS copy of the film, the HD version,(capped below) has the some of the bottom sadly slightly edited. The clarity however, mostly makes up for the cut. At the time, I remember being more interested in Baldwin, as years went by however it was Gedrick's talent in movie and television appearances that usually caught my eye.
