"The First Nudie Musical" is a 1976 American motion picture directed by Mark Haggard and Bruce Kimmel.

The movie is a comedy starring Cindy Williams and Stephen Nathan. Nathan plays Harry Schechter, heir to a Hollywood studio forced to make a musical comedy porno in order to stave off bankruptcy. The movie features a series of farcical lewd musical numbers in the style of classical Hollywood musical comedies including: "Orgasm", "Lesbian Butch Dyke", and "Dancing Dildos." The movie has low-budget feel, with a "musical-within-a-movie" theme in the tradition of "Singin' in the Rain" but with satirical sexual humor. An early staple of Cinemax, it has become somewhat of a cult classic since its initial release and was released on DVD in 2001. It was one of several farcical musical-comedy collaborations between Kimmel (who also co-starred in the movie) and Williams, along with "Naked Space" (originally titled "Spaceship") in 1981.

Production Notes

*Diana Canova, who would later star on the sitcom "Soap", sang for the film's soundtrack and appeared in the film as "Juanita" ("Eets yust so beeg!").

* Cindy Williams had started appearing in her hit series "Laverne & Shirley" when she was called back to film an added slapstick scene involving a camera crane. She wore a hat to cover her longer hair which would not have matched her previously filmed scenes. The video cover promoted a guest appearance by Ron Howard, although his contribution was a very short appearance near the start of the film.

*The run-down studio used for exterior scenes was Raleigh Studios in Hollywood. The studio underwent a renovation shortly after filming.
