OK.. Best sex scene in a (non-porn) film..?

[opiate69]

And normally i'd be able to list about a hundred, but for some reason I'm drawing a blank...

[BurtWorm]

1. Secretary

:spank:

[opiate69]

3. I've heard very good things about that flick..

I just remembered one too! Body Double had some steamy sequences, if I remember correctly... been a long timesince I've seen it.

[Raenelle]

52. I consider myself open-mined, but Secretary

was too much for my taste. I like kinky, cynical, rowdy, pushing the envelope, but this movie was . . . not to my liking.

[Paragon]

2. Out of Sight

The last good movie J. Lo may ever make.

[wtmusic]

4. Story of 'O'

[eileen from OH]

5. This was a "non porn" flick?

I thought it was very hot, but don't think it really falls into the category!

eileen from OH

[wyldwolf]

25. This movie wasn't porn....

You can buy it on Amazon. And Amazon has a non-porn policy. Adult? Yes. Porn? no. There is a difference.

[VermontDem2004]

32. In order for it to be porn

they have to show something, I saw nothing. I hope we are talking about the same movie, I am talking about the one with Martin Sheen, Josh Hartnett, and other people.

[eileen from OH]

6. I'm a romantic

And I'm gonna get real obscure here. . .

There's a 1960 flick which is not very good, called "The Unforgiven" (no relation to the later movie) starring Audrey Hepburn and Burt Lancaster. The whole thing is ho-hum, Western, blah-blah. But there's one scene where there's a group hug and amidst that group hug, Lancaster leans down and kisses Hepburn, with the rest of the group unaware. I find it really hot, but then I always had a thing for Lancaster.

Another one that NO ONE will mention, and again I'm showing my romantic side. In The King And I, right before the polka, Yul Brynner puts out his hand, sharply, before placing it around Deborah Kerr's waist. Gets me every time.

Okay, I'm weird. (And I love old movies)

[opiate69]

14. Nothing wrong with those picks...

Subtlety is, sadly, a lost art these days....

[Piperay]

21. Yes....I LOVE

old movies too :loveya: sometimes less is more. I love the scene in the 1949 movie The Heiress where Montgomery Clift embraces Oliva De Havilland, it is just an embrace but it is just so hot and sexy...you just see IT in their eyes and in their body language...:9

[stanwyck]

73. Russell and Kim in L.A. Confidential

those two were pretty sexy together. He parked his car outside her door several nights. Then he finally went up to the door and knocked.

[MercutioATC]

7. The food scene in "9 1/2 Weeks"

No actual sex, but sexy as hell...

[opiate69]

8. Agreed...

(note to self.. purchase this dvd....)

[SoCalDem]

9. Body Heat

:shrug:

[blondeatlast]

49. Another great graphic, SoCal!

[Dookus]

10. My Beautiful Launderette...

When Daniel Day-Lewis hugs his boyfriend on the street and slips a little tongue in his ear.

sigh....

[opiate69]

11. Hmm.. never heard of it... but...

Daniel Day-Lewis is an incredible actor... looks like I need to go have a look on IMDB.com..

[ronnykmarshall]

50. Hot! Hot! Hot!

[Lydia Leftcoast]

12. How about

Donald Sutherland and Julie Christie in Don't Look Now? Except that you really do want to watch them go at it with great passion. :-)

[SOteric]

13. Name of the Rose. Christian Slater and Valentina Vargas.

Steamy.

[GregW]

43. Oh, Yessssssssssssssssssssssss!!!

One of my favorite scenes (and BTW - it really looks like he nails her in that scene)

[GregW]

44. American Werewolf in London

Jenny Agutter getting eaten by David Naughton.

[sugarcookie]

15. Unfaithful and A Walk on the Moon

Viggo with Diane Lane
Olivier with Diane Lane

Edit to add another & spelling: Antonio and Salma Hayek in Desperado

[Fight_n_back]

16. There are so many

Lee Grant taking Warren Beatty in the bathroom of the Nixon fundraiser in Shampoo

The hat thing in "The Unbearable Lightness of being"

Catherine Deneuve and Susan Serandon in "The Hunger".

The bathroom scene in "Clerks" (okay, that ones a joke)

"Shawshank Redemption" (okay, now you've gone too far)

[BurtWorm]

17. Shirley Maclean masturbating in Being There

The incest in Spanking the Monkey is uncomfortably hot. And in Murmur of the Heart.

And speaking of David O. Russell (I think that's his name), there's a very sexy scene when Ben Stiller and Tia Leone (I think that's her name) get tangled in the home of the first "parent" Stiller goes to visit.

[FloridaJudy]

18. *Do the Right Thing*

That scene where Spike Lee rubs an ice-cube all over his girlfriend's body during a heat wave.

And almost every other scene in *Dona Flor and Her Two Husbands*.

[Johnyawl]

19. Bound & Bodyheat

From the moment Jennifer Tilly began seducing Gina Gershon, that movie was hot, hot, hot! The absolute sexiest, hottest seduction since "Bodyheat".

It's not the sex scenes themselves that are really hot, it's the tension, the tease of the seduction that ramps up the heat. It's what's missing from porn, which is why it's mostly boring as hell. It's also why, in real life it's such a thrill to have a new lover. The flirtation that becomes seduction; the sexual tension; the anticipation. "Bound' and "Bodyheat" showed that better than any movie I can think of

[binaryline]

72. Yes! And I thought I'd be the only one

to think of Bound.

God, that scene you mention is effin' hot. Also, Joe Pantoliano's line/excuse ("Fuckin' dark in here...") is the best...line...ever. I try to use it as much as I can ;-).

[ClintonTyree]

20. Angel Heart..............

Micky Rourke and Lisa Bonet......Steamier than a Louisiana bayou.

[wyldwolf]

22. The Limo scene in "Young Lady Chatterly"

[FlashHarry]

23. Er, I think that might be 'Porn'

Unless it's a Merchant/Ivory adaptation of a long-lost D.H. Lawrence book.

[wyldwolf]

24. Depends on how you define "porn"

Rated X (or NC-17?) No.
male frontal nudity? No.
Penetration shot? No.

How DO you define porn?

Maybe because it wasn't made by a major film studio? Seems to me the sex in it is no more or less graphic then some of the others listed on this thread.

And I've seen (and reviewed) hundreds of movies.

This one isn't porn as defined by the movie industry. Some may call it "soft core" porn just to classify it as something but how would it be different than any number of movies? I prefer the cable classification "erotica."

And if it were an adaptation of a DH Lawrence book, would it make a difference?

[underpants]

26. "The Hunger" Catherine Deneuve and Susan Saradon

:thumbsup"

[leftofthedial]

[AmandaRuth]

33. Can't remember the name of the movie

Someone help me, the movie was set in New Orleans, and had Ellen Barkin and Dennis Quiad? I can't remember the name, but I do remember the love scenes...

[mac56]

35. "The Big Easy".

nm

[AmandaRuth]

36. that be the one

[mac56]

34. "Five Easy Pieces"

Jack Nicholson and a very young Sally Struthers.

"Yo-Yo-Ma", as the Seinfeld gang would say.

[Palacsinta]

37. Witness

Maybe 'cause I live in Amish country....

[jus_the_facts]

38. Monsters Ball....the sex scene is what won the Oscar......

.....so that MUST be the best right? :eyes:

[oneighty]

40. Yes!

I got that movie from the local library.

I thought someone had slipped in a skin flick to replace

the movie. Wow!

180

[AWD]

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

[Lady Freedom]

45. Top Gun

"Take me to bed or lose me forever!"
If Tom said that to me,(yeah I know the girl said that to him) I

Is it just me or does he look better in a flight suit than "stump"?hehe!

[liberalpress]

46. Actually

Meg Ryan said it Anthony edwards... but if Meg Ryan said it to me, I'd be there!

[Lady Freedom]

51. But you forget the scene on the bike!

Remember the motorcicle ride Tom & Kelly took after the dinner scene? Prrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

[Lady Freedom]

47. I forgot one!

8 mile! Mainly the part where they go at it in the factory!

It brings back memeries for me! hehe!

[cosmicdot]

68. Tom in "All the Right Moves" - just a brief scene

Lea Thompson played Lisa, Tom was Stefan

he had to sit out a game - he was up in his room - Lisa, in the HS band, appeared down on the street playing her saxophone

he invites her in

all I know is that the temperature in the theatre must have gone up 100+ degrees about the time he took off his crucifix ... and someone in theatre loudly said: "Surrrre is hot in here".

if you play the scene in slow-mo ... it should become obvious why ... almost subliminal

[dolo amber]

48. The Year of Living Dangerously

I seem to remember there being a quite steamy-yet-subtle-ish scene between Mel Gibson and Sigourney Weaver in there, or at least it was to my 13 year old mind. I have to admit I've not seen it in years, but the idea of it has stuck in my head since I initally saw it. (It was on HBO and thus I saw it 4.8 million times when it was first shown.) Yeah, Mel Gibson's a repig, but back then he was pretty hot, and an Indonesian backdrop has never hurt when one is striving for "schteamy!". ;)

[opiate69]

53. Great submissions, everybody..

Thanks for responding. Hopefully thinking about this brought back some great memories for everybody.

[SiouxJ]

54. The suit of armor scene in Excalibur

was original and sexy. I heard after that movie came out costume shops had a run on suits of armor :-) .

In actuality it sounds a little painful but I guess that can be fun too :wow: ;-)

[opiate69]

55. Ahh.. I had forgot that one..

Good call!

[SPICYHOT]

56. The name of the rose!!!

the whole movie was pretty good and the sexy girl made the sex part even better!

[Lisa]

57. From "Brazil" -- "care for a little necrophilia?"

This is right after Jonathan Pryce's character has finally managed to erase the records of the young woman who is being hunted by the secret police ... effectively she's now "dead".

As she beckons him into bed, she makes the necrophilia comment.

[PopSixSquish]

58. There's Several that Come to Mind

pun intended :evilgrin:

Out of Sight
The Big Easy
Stealing Beauty
Witness
Shakespeare in Love

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

59. The Postman Always Rings Twice... Nicholson & Lange on the table

with the kneaded dough and flour....

I've had a thing for fresh bread ever since...



Feel safe.
Ashcroft watches over us all.

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

60. (Also) The Sailor That Fell From Grace With The Sea...

Kristofferson & Sara Miles...

Caused the divorce w/Rita Cooledge (sp?)




Feel safe.
Ashcroft watches over us all.

[Dover]

62. Last Tango in Paris

Just kidding...

But that was the FIRST sexually explicit film I saw.

[Dover]

63. Harvey Keitel in The Piano....the scene during the piano lesson.

..

[Bake]

64. Michael Douglas and Glenn Close in Fatal Attraction

The elevator. The kitchen sink. The bed. Damn that was hot!

Bake

[Scurrilous]

65. Phoebe Cates....

...and Judge Reinhold in Fast Times at Ridgemont High. :thumbsup:

[VermontDem2004]

66. .

[marigold20]

67. Body Heat

as my sister noted, all William Hurt's troubles could have been avoided if they only had air conditioning!

[DemocratSinceBirth]

69. Jack Nicholson

and Jessica Lange in The Postman Always Rings Twice and Anabella Sciorra and Wesley Snipes in Jungle Fever...

Also, the train scene with Tom Cruise and Rebecca DeMornay in Riskey Business was hot

[Mz Pip]

71. I second

on "The Postman Always RIngs Twice." I heard Nicholson and Lange really got into it and a whole lot of it was tooo graphic and had to be cut.

MzPip
:dem:

[LynneSin]

70. The Lover - A wonderful flick

That movie really does make me, um, horny! Based in pre-Vietnam War Vietnam it's the story of a young girl and her 30 year old lover.

[stanwyck]

74. Russell and Kim in L.A. Confidential

those two were sexy together. He parked his car outside her house for weeks. But didn't go in. Then one night, he walks up to the door and knocks.

[linazelle]

75. No Way Out

with Kevin Costner and Sean Young making out in a limo. Hot!!!
