What scene in the movies made you go weak in the knees and breathless? I'm not necessarily talking about the sex itself, although that might follow, but the romance, the set-up, the seduction... the look in the man's eyes, the touch of a hand, etc. My favorite seduction is from "The English Patient." The Sikh medic-soldier invites the French nurse back to his tent. It's dark and along the path he has set shells with tiny candles (or flames of some sort) leading to the tent and more candles. It was completely still in the theatre (except for the sighs from the ladies). My husband turned to me and said, "Damn,[/I]I'd fuck him!"
Does anyone else want to contribute their favorite?
 
And here I thought you might be referring to this .

:eek:


In any case, I did like that scene with Ellen Barkin and Dennis Quaid in The Big Easy...
 
The scene in "Last Samurai" where the chick is dressing Tom Cruse in her dead husband's armor. I wanted to scream out, "Fuck her, kiss her, do something!" Was very hot and full of emotion.
 
For some reason seduction scenes in movies never got me so enthralled. Turned on, yes, but captivated, not really.

Smells, touches and warmth don't carry over. Nor does that gleam in the eye I look for.
 
Princess Leia in the slavegirl outfit...

'Nuff said.

The scene in 'Thief of Hearts' where the thief seduces his target on the pistol range. Very hot.

I 'expropriated' that scene, kind of, for one of my stories.

:catroar: One of my favorites!


It's totally camp ... but the ending scene in "An Officer and a Gentleman" still gives me tingles.

And the chemistry between Crash & Annie in "Bull Durham" (even more so now that it's gained new associations).

The rhumba scene between Richard Gere & Jennifer Lopez in "Shall We Dance?" just ... oh, my!

Another dance scene with Patrick Swayze & Jennifer Grey in "Dirty Dancing."

Hmmm ... I don't watch a lot of movies.
 
How about when Richard Geere rescues Julia Ormond in First Knight? Lots of tension and build up in that flick, a real emotional roller coaster.

Most of the scenes in Cruel Intentions. I love the way Cecile is so beautifully corrupted by Valmonte and Katherine. Very little in the way of actual sex scenes are seen (and the one that is (Valmonte and Annette) isn't particularly sexy), but the aftermath of Cecile sitting in bed, completely corrupted by a bored Valmonte is delicious.

The Earl
 
When Michael's Sicilan bride drops her nightie, in "The Godfather" - a certain young boy's first onscreen breasts.

Demi Moore seducing Jon Cryer (yes, the guy for two & half men), in 1984's "No Small Affair".
 
Salma Hayek and Ashley Judd dancing together in a tango in "Frida"

Oh...be still my beating heart!
 
THat scene in the Harrison Ford movies where he plays an undercover cop in an Amish community and falls for the hot amish girl (Kelly McGillis)

He's alone pitching hay in the barn and she brings him a glass of lemonade. They are finally alone and they stare into each others eyes. The sexual tension is as thick as molasses in January and then he takes the glass and he downs it as she watches.

Very subtle, very powerful.

Another great scene in that same movie ("Witness," by the way): He unexpectedly walks in on the Amish woman while she's bathing. Chaste and reserved, she starts to cover up but then stands straight, presenting herself to him in all her naked beauty. He stares for a long moment, wanting her but knowing he shouldn't, then walks on down the hallway.

The scene drips with sexual tension. My hard-on just about ripped through my jeans.
 
I'm a softie and not a big fan to Tom Cruise's but I loved Jerry Maguire, where Renee Zellweger say...Shut up. You had me at hello. Sigh....
 
Secretary

the scene in Secretary when just after being spanked for the first time by her boss you see his hand next to hers. She takes her pinky finger and rubs it against his finger.
 
Somewhere In Time. The sexiest part is in the bedroom when Reeve is in bed with Seymour. From behind the lace curtain he blows out the candle. That is hot. I always feel a pulling in my sex to my bellybutton.
 
Hmm... have to think.

Salma Hayek and the snake in Dusk till Dawn of course. The music selection was spot on too :D
 
From a more recent film

In the latest version of Pride & Prejudice with Keira Knightley:

When Darcy takes Lizzy's hand and helps her into the coach after her first visit to Netherfield, and the look he gave her as he turned away. *shiver*

Their dance at the Netherfield ball, when one moment they're surrounded by people and the next they're completely alone. Very breathtaking moment.

And of course... at the end of the movie, when Darcy walks across the field. I think that was this version's answer to Colin Firth's "wet shirt" scene in the BBC adaptation! :D
