Believe it or not, I actually have heard something to that effect.The imdb site cast list for the movie lists her as an ice skater. Are we to gather, then, that she strips during an ice skating routine?
Since the film takes place in the early 1930s, perhaps some burlesque houses in those days were equipped with ice covered stages. Anyhow, she's supposedly a "loose woman" of some sort who has a trist with Huey Long (Sean Penn). If anybody actually goes out and sees this, let us all know what's going on.
Back in the days of "Heaven's Gate," there was no such thing as recovering the cost of a massive bomb via home entertainment. The Betamax/VHS market was still too new, and not enough people owned them. Nowadays, even a film that tanks royally (like this one appears to be doing) can still recoup alot of the investment via DVD buyers who are also Sean Penn/Anthony Hopkins completists, not to mention foreign markets. Needless to say, this isn't going to do to Phoenix pictures what "Heaven's Gate" did to United Artists.
