There is no shortage of sex in the movies, but sometimes it does feel like there is a shortage of sexy. Over at Entertainment Weekly they have compiled the list of what they claim are the 25 sexiest movies of All-Time, and while I agree with most of their picks, I do think in a few cases they have managed to confuse love with sex (but haven’t we all?). The list covers everything from full on sex flicks like 9 1/2 Weeks](Nine 1/2 Weeks (1986) - Movie | Moviefone) to more subtle fare like Martin Scorsese’s The Age of Innocence](The Age of Innocence (1993) - Movie | Moviefone). So first let’s take a look at the films that earned a spot on EW’s hall of fame, and then we’ll get to five movies that get my pulse racing.
The top five is pretty much what you would expect: you’ve got the baseball comedy Bull Durham](Bull Durham (1988) - Movie | Moviefone) in the number five spot, followed by the 80’s noir classic Body Heat](Body Heat (1981) - Movie | Moviefone), Mr. & Mrs. Smith](Mr. & Mrs. Smith (2005) - Movie | Moviefone), Hawk’s screwball masterpiece His Girl Friday](His Girl Friday (1940) - Movie | Moviefone), and in the number one spot is Soderbergh’s Out of Sight](Out of Sight (1998) - Movie | Moviefone). It’s a pretty comprehensive list overall, and even a few foreign language selections made the cut, but I know better than anybody else that sometimes there isn’t room for all the movies you would like on a list, so that’s why I decided to add a few suggestions of my own.
