9. Ghost
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CXfxUVjHFl0 This scene truly needs no introduction. As a film, Ghost hasn't held up particularly well, and is often ridiculed and maligned for being melodramatic and cheesy, but one scene has stood the test of time, and with all of the imitations - and parodies - that have been made since, it is poised to truly last forever. Sam Wheat (played by Patrick Swayze), a Wall Street banker, is madly in love with his wife Molly (Demi Moore), who is a talented potter. Early in the film, the two share an intimate, erotic scene at the pottery wheel, set to the smooth sounds of The Righteous Brothers' cover version of "Unchained Melody". This scene is actually a bit of a cheat since it quickly evolves into an actual sex scene, but still. The sheer eroticism of the foreplay is too intense to ignore. Sexiest Moment: Sam's wet clay-covered fingers intertwining gently into Molly's as they run their hands up and down the moist vase. Not exactly the most subtle image...
