The Hottest Sex Scene in Screen History

​
The horizontal mambo between Donald Sutherland and Julie Christie in the 1973 thriller Don't Look Now was so vivid that whispers got out claiming the two had really done the deed onscreen! On hearing this rumor, Julie's main squeeze, Warren Beatty, ran to the set to demand they cut the footage, but they kept it in, seeing as it was one of the few memorable things in the damned thing.

Was that the most sizzling sex scene in screen history?

Or was it Burt Lancaster and Deborah Kerr getting jiggy on the beach in From Here To Eternity, not even caring about getting sand all over their waxed selves?

Mickey Rourke and Carre Otis in Wild Orchid--another supposedly real-looking sex encounter that grabbed headlines if not viewers?

Rourke, Kim Basinger, and the cling peaches in Nine Weeks, which robbed one and 1/2 hours from my life?

Hammy Marlon Brando beginning his fascination with butter in the steamy Last Tango In Paris?

Or the fateful one-night stand in Fatal Attraction, which scared millions into celibacy?

Why do so many of these scenes involve food?

Two scenes with Mickey Rourke are considered among the sexiest in history??? Is this some kind of joke???

(Not that I wouldn't do it with him, mind you.)

Andrew Tsouris says:

Best sex scene? No joke. It's all in Alain Resnais editing, and therefore in the imagination of the viewer: Genevieve Bujold and Yves Montand in "La Guerre Est Finis."

Djangoman says:

Perhaps the hottest sex scene in film is one in which the participants remain fully clothed: Eli Wallach's seduction of Carroll Baker on an outdoor swing in Elia Kazan's "Baby Doll" (1956). Check it out - Kazan was such a genius he used the creaking of the swing to highten the sexual tension, as Wallach moves closer and achingly closer in on his prey...

And the sex scene between Patricia Charboneau and Helen Shaver in DESERT HEARTS gave this gay man a boner!

Antonio Banderas and Eusebio Poncela in Almodovar's "Law of Desire." You left THAT out and gave us only boring hetero scenes?

Was up late the other night and tuned into this scene where Leo DiCaprio was fucking this guy up the ass, no sure the title of the film
bu it was a really hot moment. It had to be from the mid to 90's as he was so young.

CMG says:

Tina it was either Total Eclipse or The Basketball Diaries. I think the latter even though he played Rimbaud in the former. TBD he played Jim Carroll (RIP) who was a prep school basketball star by day and hustler by night to feed his drug habit.

Posted On: Tuesday, Sep. 15 2009 @ 12:44PM
CMG says:

Everything in Shortbus and Beyond The Valley of The Dolls.

While this initially sounds tasteless, Liam Neeson and the woman who played his wife in Schindler's List.

Oh if you mute Patrick Wilson and Malin Ackerman in Watchmen it's hot. Put on the sound to that terrible Leonard Cohen version of "Hallelujah" (yeah I know it was the original) it sounds terribly campy.

Speaking of Brando I think when Stella realizes for the first time she has a bit of control over the sweating, teary, drunk Stanley and lustfully walks down the stairs to make out passionately and leave the scene was all kinds of hot going on.

David in Toronto says:

It wasn't an out and out sex scene but one of the most erotic scenes I've ever seen is from the movie Women in Love; it's the wrestling scene between Alan Bates and Oliver Reed.

F. Packer says:

David Naughton and Jenny Agutter in "An American Werewolf in London".


Oh, and seeing Donald Sutherland's ass when he reached for something on a high shelf in "Animal House" was more than enough...I DON'T want to see him fuck.

The scene in Body Heat when Kathleen Turner is obviously suppose to be taking it up the butt. You only see her face, she's on her stomach, grabbing the sheets and as she's being pounded you can hear William Hurt ask if he is hurting her. She resonds the way anyone who is getting a good ass pounding does: "DON'T STOP"

I guess that's why he's named William Hurt, badumpum.

Mr. Musto,why do you have to add the adjective 'Hammy'.Brando's performance in Last Tango is one of the best ever in cinema history.I think you know nothing about acting.What you watch is sex scenes.Why don't you just switch to watching hardcore porn.

...the sex scenes between Viggo Mortensen and Maria Bello(I might be wrong on the actress name...)in "A history of violence", and also the sex-on-the-stairs scene between Johnny Depp and Anne Heche in "Donnie Brasco"...

...I thought of another one: Diane Lane & Olivier Martinez in "Unfaithful"...

Posted On: Wednesday, Sep. 16 2009 @ 10:24AM
CMG says:

Nikhul, it was hammy as in Brando's physique, not the performance.

I actually thought the orgasm in Unfaithful was hotter than the actual intercourse.
