Claudette Colbert's Milk Bath Scene

This is the famous scene from 'The Sign of The Cross'. Very Pre-Code. Enjoy.

Claudette is captivating, but I must confess that I had trouble following the dialogue - I was too busy urging those kittens to hurry up and drink more milk.

That one hand made looks like Miss Crabtree from the Our Gang movies. (she was hot)

@callmetom04 P.S. And I don't know who flagged this comment of mine as spam the last time, but if you did it on purpose, you're a chump--These kinds of back stage stories make the movies more fun!

@callmetom04 And I just remembered (on looking at the scene again just now) that the '38 and '44 versions also toned down the part at the very end, where Dacia takes her dress off and gets ready to get in the bath: They showed a lot less of her legs (just showing her unstrap her sandals), making that part a lot less sexual. The scene in both versions was still as they left it a very sexy scene overall, with lovely Claudette in the tub & the milk just barely covering her cleavage.

@globalman Wrong info: This scene was never cut out on USA TV that I've ever heard of, and I saw the movie on TV several times during the 70s & 80s, long before it ever came out on VHS. What WAS cut were the re-release theatrical versions of 1938 & '44, and that '44 version was the one that was always shown whenever the movie was shown anywhere after that until about the early 90s. The part of this scene cut from the '38 & '44 versions was the short bit where she looks in the mirror.

They asked "Do you want the milk pasteurized?" and she answered "No, just up to my chin."

Is it wrong to get a boner when it feels so right?

Freeze frame this from a DVD then frame advance in the right places & you see a few more nip glimpses & some almost nip that you miss at normal speed besides the ones around 2:14 & about 3:15. Real fun at least once. I forget where they are though. Still she looks great in that milk bath!!
