Imax & Climax

I've spent the weekend watching movies in search of the hottest sex scenes to share with you. I'm such a martyr. Below my TOP PICKS! Anything from sensual, provocative to the down-right bizarre....

TOP 10 SEX SCENES
IN MOVIES

MOST ICONIC:

"BASIC INSTINCT" (1992)

Granted this isn't a "sex" scene per se but Sharon Stone being interrogated by a room full of cops is one of the hottest, most fun things to watch. And not just because of her infamous "leg" moment. When the detective asks her "did you tie him up?" she smirks: "No, Johnny liked to use his hands too much. I like hands and fingers..." And that's just the beginning.

BEST NAUGHTY:

"SECRETARY" (2002)

Maggie Gylenhall is a secretary and she deserves to be punished. That's what her boss says at least. The plot is a bit deeper than that (pun intended) but the dominant & submissive game between the leads is what makes this movie an exciting watch. The best scene is definitely when he spanks her and then washes her hair. It's all about balance, people.

BEST FIRST ORGASM:

"BLACK SWAN" (2010)

Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis are a match made in heaven (or hell, that dichotomy works for the rest of the plot as well btw.) Portman's character has her first sexual experience and she seems to like it. A lot. It's amazing to see a female orgasm on the big screen like this!

BEST 'MENAGE A TROIS':

"THE DREAMERS" (2003)

This French film about a "menage a trois" is a bohemian dream of free love and excess. It's difficult to pick one scene, as they fuck A LOT. But the bathroom scene is the most intense and memorable in my opinion. It doesn't hurt that all three actors are incredibly sensual and fully nude throughout most of it. Hail to the European art film.

BEST CLICHE:

"EYES WIDE SHUT" - (1999)

Sometimes a movie is just about wild orgies and finding your next fuck and that's a-ok with me. Even though a little less explicit in reality, Stanley Kubrick's last film has still some amazingly hot scenes, the mirror one is one of my favorites... Damn.

BEST SWOON SCENE:

"ATONEMENT" - (2007)

A British period piece about doomed love... basically emotional soft-core porn. Most of the sex scene in the library with Keira Knightly and James McAvoy is implied but still AH-mazingly steamy.

MOST SENSUAL LESBIAN SCENE:

"MULHOLLAND DRIVE" - (2001)

The scene with Naomi Watts and Laura Harring is so beautiful, so different and so HOT that you can only find the video clip on Pornhub. Not a bad place to check it out, you should watch the whole movie though. David Lynch is a master. I'm just discovering his music too, you can find his song "I Want You" on my "Undr*ss Me" playlist.

BEST DARK SCENE:

"SHAME" - (2011)

Michael Fassbender is playing a sex addict so this whole movie is pretty dark, obviously full of sex and he's very naked...The ladder is not a bad thing, if you were wondering. There is one iconic scene of him having sex in the suite of the Standard Hotel and it gets me every time.

BEST SPY SEX:

"MR. & MRS. SMITH"

Alright, this isn't the best film I've ever seen and I made up a pretty obscure category... BUT it's Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt trying to kill each other and ultimately destroying their own apartment while having sex. Come on, it's hot! And probably real... a girl can dream.

MOST RIDICULOUS SCENE:

"BARBARELLA" - (1968)

Ok, this scene is a gift from me to you. Jane Fonda is a space traveler stuck inside of a piano and a scientist is PLAYING her until she orgasms and catches on FIRE! Talk about hilarious metaphors and culty imagery. You can't unsee this one.
