The Adventures of Baron Munchausen was released 36 years ago in 1989. Directed by Terry Gilliam, it was about Baron Munchausen (who else?) an 18th century German nobleman who was famous for his tall tales.
In the film, the Baron meets Venus, the Goddess of Love, who's played here by Uma Thurman in her movie debut.
Venus shows up naked in a giant clam, but she's soon dressed by a pair of flying barefoot girls who drape her within frilly white clothing.
Both Venus and her helpers go barefoot throughout their scenes in the movie.
Venus is married to the extremely jealous Vulcan, played by the late, great Oliver Reed.
You can imagine how irritated Vulcan gets when the Baron starts making some moves on Venus. A fun movie that holds up even today.
