Dave Franco confirmed that his wife’s predilection towards streaking had indeed come back in full force. “She did it in the hotel right before we got here,” Franco said in the same Hollywood Reporter interview. An Instagram post corroborates the tale, with a nude Alison Brie trying to alleviate her husband’s pre-premiere jitters. “Get out of the hall,” he urges in the video, with Brie retorting, “I’ve done three laps already!”
For Franco and Brie, nudity was more than a source of levity, or in Brie’s case, a walk down memory lane. It’s also crucial to Ally’s self-discovery. At the end of “Somebody I Used to Know” (spoilers incoming!), Ally reconnects with her passion for documentary filmmaking on a project about a nudist colony. To put her interview subject at ease, Ally — as well as the rest of her crew — eschews her own clothes.
“[The nudity] became this perfect metaphor for Ally’s journey as she goes through the movie, essentially trying to find her way back to her essence, the most bare form of who she is as a person,” Brie continued.
