16. Titanic (1997)

Sure, there’s only one sex scene in this movie, but it’s a major part of the film that spawned a slew of memes and Internet jokes. It also provided moviegoers with the great line, “Draw me like one of your French girls.”

Titanic remains a favorite amongst romantics and turned Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet into box office stars.

18. The Graduate (1967)

Ever wondered what it would be like to be seduced by an older woman? That’s exactly what happens to Dustin Hoffman in this 70s favorite.

There’s not much sex in this crime thriller. It’s all about the sizzling chemistry between George Clooney and Jennifer Lopez. At the time of this movie’s release, both stars were just breaking out and there’s no doubt their performances helped push them into the mainstream. 

22. Velvet Buzzsaw (2019)

A horror movie featuring a barely clothed Jake Gyllenhaal set in the art world doesn’t scream sex, but there’s a bubbling undercurrent of sexuality throughout Velvet Buzzsaw.  It’s also got a tremendous cast that includes Zawe Ashton, Rene Russo, Toni Collette, Natalia Dyer, and John Malkovich. 

23. Closer (2004)

Mike Nichols adapts Patrick Marber’s award-winning play of the same name about the impacts of infidelity on two couples. Closer is less about visuals and more about the stinging dialogue. The presence of Julia Roberts, Jude Law, Natalie Portman, and Clive Owen also helps elevate this romantic drama.

25. Wild Things (1998)

This hot and steamy 90s thriller is a neo-noir involving multiple double-crosses and plenty of steamy scenes. Matt Dillon and Kevin Bacon bring the experience while newcomers Neve Campbell and Denise Richards supply the sexuality in this enjoyable romp. Best stay clear of the three sequels though. 

26. Moonlight (2016)

27. 9 Songs (2004)

If you want real sex but don’t want to watch porn, 9 Songs is the movie for you. It features unsimulated sex acts between the two leads, Kieran O’Brien and Margo Stilley.

If you can get past the graphic sex scenes, 9 Songs is an interesting study of a 12-month relationship signposted by nine songs played by eight different bands. 

28. Mulholland Drive (2001)

This bonkers movie by David Lynch is hard to follow, but the major plot point surrounds aspiring actress Naomi Watts helping amnesiac woman Laura Harring find out who she really is. Or at least that seems to be the case. Weird, wild, and sexually charged, Mulholland Drive is everything you expect from a Lynch movie. 

29. Blue Is the Warmest Color (2013)

Based on a graphic novel, this French flick follows the relationship between aspiring painter Adèle Exarchopoulos and Léa Seydoux. The two meet as teens as the film follows their lives into adulthood. While the film did create some controversy (a heterosexual man directing a film about a lesbian relationship), it’s a well-shot romance with both leads in great form and a couple of truly graphic sex scenes added for your enjoyment. 

30. 9 1/2 Weeks (1986)

Remember when Mickey Rourke and Kim Basinger were at the top of their game? No? Then this movie will jog your memory. 9 1/2 Weeks is an erotic romance with plenty of hot bedroom scenes between the two leads. While it might not be that exciting for modern audiences, at the time of its release it was considered graphic. How times have changed.
