The 1960 film "The Sweet Thing of 16" is a nudist film that gained popularity in the US, despite being initially shown in grind houses and smaller theaters. The film is a "picturization" of Rudyard Kipling's poem, featuring a retired soldier, Tommy Atkins, who recounts his experiences with women from around the world. The main attraction is the nudity of six women, including the 16-year-old "Sweet Thing" from New Mexico, who is promoted as a high school junior. The film's producers even offered free color slides of the nude scenes to projectionists, but the offer is no longer valid.
