For whatever reason, I was thinking of various movie scenes that took place in strip clubs. I really cannot think of many good ones.
I'd have to say The Wrestler probably has my favorite scene that takes place in a strip club, the first time Ram visits the place. Sin City may have been good if Jessica Alba actually stripped.
What are some strip club scenes?

^ I haven't seen Powder Blue yet, but I'm sure it has at least 2 of my all time favorite.

Knocked Up has an entertaining one. I still haven't seen Choke, but I'm told it has at least one or two good ones. And I'm fairly sure if you were dedicated enough, you could do a thread of Favorite Strip Club Scenes in Billy Bob Thornton Movies. I seem to recall one in Bad Santa and several in The Ice Harvest, just off the cuff.

Mia Kirshner in a schoolgirl outfit...so I'll go with something from Atom Egoyan's EXOTICA. Or maybe that doesn't count since the club is one of the primary settings for the film.
I recall that Wayne Kramer's RUNNING SCARED (starring Paul Walker) had at least one decent strip club scene.

The moment you saw Planet Terror open with this..you knew you were seeing some good stuff on the screen. Man, Rodriguez is a lucky as fuck to have McGowan with him now, professionally she may be poison to him. Though...it sucks for his ex-wife.
What, no one liked seeing Jenna Jameson shooting billiard balls out of her cootch in Zombie Strippers?

while the movie is beyond bad, Demi Moore had some very nice scenes and looked really good in "Striptease".

Oddly enough, my favorite "strip" scene in that movie didn't take place at the strip club but in Demi's apartment when she was dancing around in nothing but her towel.
but yeah, the movie's beyond bad...

Carlito's Way (Penelope Ann Miller)
Fear City (Rae Dawn Chong)
Dancing At The Blue Iguana (Jennifer Tilly) (Also gained a better appreciation of Echo & The Bunnymen's "Lips like sugar" thanks to this movie)
Phat Beach (Devin DeRay! WHOA!)
The Wild Life (Don't remember who the girls were but it's notable since this was, I believe, the first strip club scene I saw in a movie)
Varsity Blues has a great one too.

Yup. Rose McGowan looked great, especially for a woman in her mid-thirties.

Actually it's the human mannequin that does the stripping! Still a great scene though.

Closer is also the only flick that can make me give a damn about Roberts. Overrated for sure...totally undeserving of an Oscar as well.

if i recall wasn't it only Portman and Owen who were nominated for Oscars. Also the movie helped me discover Damien Rice too

I think he meant that Roberts was not deserving of an Oscar, regardless of it being for a different movie.

Stills from Jessica Beil's nude stripper scene from the movie "Powder Blue" are available if anyone is interested but I don't think I can post the link to them. If allowed i'll post the name of the website but I don't want to break any rules.

What, no love for Lindsey Lohan in I Know Who Killed Me?
Constance Towers in Sam Fuller's SHOCK CORRIDOR (1963). Also, I seem to remember a strip club scene in Fuller's THE CRIMSON KIMONO (1959). He sure knew how to get away with stuff.
As for later films, didn't Maria Ford have some good strip scenes in Roger Corman's Concorde films? I'm thinking STRIPPED TO KILL II and NAKED OBSESSION. Any others from that period (early '90s)?

When she looked at her resume and realized that she's been in an awful lot of crap, she decided that nudity was the next logical step.

Beverly Hills Cop. The whole speech about enjoying yourself that Axel tells Rosewood was gold, as well as the hold up.
If you want to watch a movie with great strip club scenes you are going to want to watch, er, fast forward some 90s Cinemax B-movies like Midnight Tease. Most of the B movie stars of the 90s were strippers.
A majority of the mainstream stuff sucks. Showgirls and Striptease only had a few minutes inside an actual club.

I remember seeing the Motley Crue video Girls Girls Girls and being blown away by how sexy the strippers were. Later I heard that, instead of hiring movie actresses, the boys hired their favorite strippers.

I can't link the scene 'cause it contains nudity, but that's a damn fine scene. Academy award worthy!
