Daily Probe Movie Review by Agatha Florenze-Bindercuff   Full Frontal On Sunday morning, I grudgingly set aside my copy of the New York Times so that I could stroll down to the local movie house and see the new film, Full Frontal, of which I've heard much pooh-poohing in my social circles. Evidently, the title is contemporary slang for complete nudity. Admittedly, this is something I've never experienced in a theater before, with the exception of a little after-hours surprise cooked up by a projectionist I once dated -- an event better left in the past, if you don't mind. So it was with much blushing (and a small degree of titillation, to be perfectly honest!) that I found myself in the Upper East Side's Paris Theatre on Sunday, pad and Mont Blanc in hand, ready to perform my duties as a film critic. And wouldn't you know, someone sat directly in front of me, his head adorned by one of those "afro" hair styles so favored by the young folks these days. If any body parts were actually bared during the film, I was not privy to them, peering as I was through the underbrush. In short, my dear readers, I could not see a thing! From the sound of things, Tyrone Power was playing the part of the jaded newspaperman, with Myrna Loy as the harried socialite who falls for him against his better judgement. More than that, I'm afraid I cannot tell you. The blushing did arrive, however, courtesy of a stream of cursing the likes of which I've never heard in my life. I hope it didn't originate from the film itself, as most movies shown in polite company are not so... well, so earthy. Perhaps a theatre employee dropped something on his foot behind the screen. Those of us in show business know that sort of thing to be all too common.
