When it comes to finding subjects for Thanksgiving 12 Days posts, the pickings are slim. First off, there aren't really that many Thanksgiving themed movies out there. It's not like Halloween or Christmas where there are hundreds of choices. If there is a Thanksgiving themed film, it's also doubtful there's going to be male nudity. Last year, I had no idea who I was going to feature, but then discovered that actor Jack Donnelly had a nude scene in recently released Friendsgiving.
This year, I kept returning to the famous Thanksgiving Day scene in 1993's Addams Family Values. Although I've really never seen the film, I've caught the Thanksgiving scene on television and Youtube a few different times. At first I thought I'd profile actor David Krumholtz. (above with Christina Ricci). David has grown into a hot man, and I enjoyed his turn as Gregory on Mom.
After searching for images of David, I decided the better choice was actor Peter MacNicol. Peter and Christine Baranki play the Grangers, the leaders of Camp Chippewa. I'd always though Peter was cute, and enjoyed him on Chicago Hope and Ally McBeal. Peter is one of Hollywood's busiest actors, and has worked steadily since the early 80's. His most recent turns include roles on the TV shows Veep, Tangled: The Series and All Rise.
MacNicol's long and successful career began with a bang. After getting rave reviews for his 1981 Broadway debut in the play Crimes of the Heart, he very quickly began working in films. The actors first film role was as Galen, the lead in 1981's Dragonslayer. He followed that up co-starring with Meryl Streep and Kevin Kline in 1982's Sophie's Choice.
Like many actors, MacNicols one and only nude scene occurred in Dragonslayer, the actors very first film. It's a quick butt scene, jumping into the water and swimming, but I was still pleasantly surprised to find it! Check out the clip below.
Bet not all of you know Peter had his own Halloween mask based on his character Galen in Dragonslayer.
