in "A Home at the End of the World", has appealed to the
public not to believe the hype surrounding Farrell's full-frontal

allegedly burst into tears and men hid their faces in shame,

but there wasn't any gasping or dropping to one's knees.
The nudity was scrapped simply because it was distracting,"
