Top erotic moments in films

26 replies

I am trying to remember the name of a certain film and I am sure one of you will know it. I have never watched it all the way through but it is a film famous for its eroticism. It is French and features a bored woman who keeps fantasising various sexual scenes, one of which involves being driven into a forest, tied up and beaten.

Anyone know which film that is?

Then you can tell me your favourite erotic moments in film!

Don't know the name. Or cannot recall. But I think I vaguely know the film you mean.

No SEA! Although there are plenty of moments in that series that get my juices going too.

Ah it is frustrating not being able to remember! I have a feeling it is 3 or 4 words long.

The Channel 4 site with the top 100 erotic film moments isn't working alas, as I know it was on it.

Emanuelle?

I found my dad's copy of the book when I was about 14. It was very rude

Doodle2U · 17/04/2009 22:39

Gawd, I'm gonna sound like a right Saddo now but you know that bit in Titanic.....noooooo, keep reading, it's not that corny......the bit where Jack is drawing Rose? He peeps over the top of the paper and all you can see is Dicaprio's eyes....that look gets me hot and bothered every time.

In fact, I'm off for a fag to calm down from just thinking about it - night all

Not Emanuelle. More art housey than that.

LOL at getting hot under the collar by Dicaprio's eyes.

Sorry Dumbledoresgirl, can't help.

You got me thinking about my fave erotic moment though, and, despite Bloke's best efforts with lots of 'arty' foreign films (apparently if it has subtitles, it isn't porn...) the first thing that comes to mind when I think erotic is...

...the sex scene in Dirty Dancing.

Sorry.

I do realise I am going to lose all respect here, but I want to confess something to you here:

I have never watched Dirty Dancing!

Taken you up on your idea thisisyesterday.

Put it in chat too as it seems to have a broader appeal.

Good lord.

To be honest, I'm not sure how you can grow up female in this country without having seen Dirty Dancing.

In a way, I am jealous. You have such a treat coming if you choose to see it. I wish I could watch it again for the first time...

JackienOeuf · 17/04/2009 23:11

Might it be 'Belle de Jour'?

JackienOeuf · 17/04/2009 23:14

Look - I found a still from it - looks right.

Everyone's gone very quiet on this thread. You are either all repeatedly watching the clip on youtube or have snuck off in disgust at my kinky taste in eroticism.

Doodle2U · 17/04/2009 23:30

Well it doesn't have an ending....what was the climax?

I'm just cringing away to myself and to make matters worse, you just directed cornsilk to this thread. I used to go to school with her you know? Am supposed to meet up with her for coffee in Starbucks soon. How will I look the woman in the eye, now she knows my grubby little secret?
