From Ghost to Titanic to Basic Instinct , all sorts of movies feature love scenes, with these intimate on-screen moments serving to move the plot forward, deepen the relationship between characters, and of course to titillate the audience. In most movies, with exceptions for films like Deep Throat or Debbie Does Dallas , the actors in these love scenes are, well, acting. Which is to say they’re not actually being intimate. Here’s the thing: sometimes, they are.
In fact, in some of the most passionate, believable love scenes ever recorded on camera, the actors managed to achieve such realism simply by really having intercourse. (Talk about method acting, right? Right.) Often the actors participating in these scenes were in a relationship off screen as well, which certainly makes the completion of such performances easier. In some cases, though, they just committed to their roles and went for it. Our list features plenty of both. Here now are fourteen movies where the actors were acting but the hanky panky was real. And no, none of them are pornographic. Technically, anyway; I guess that line gets blurred pretty quickly in some cases. Yeah, we’re looking’ at you, Caligula .
When The Brown Bunny first debuted at the Cannes Film Festival back in 2003, noted critic Roger Ebert called it the worst movie in the history of the festival. He softened his tone a bit after a later re-edited version, but neither version “softened” the very real oral stimulation scene between the two stars. The main reason the scintillating scene was so momentous was that its female component was the actress Chloë Savigny, who was already quite famous at the time of the production.

This 1980 film directed by William Friedkin and starring Al Pacino and Karen Allen wasn’t exactly dealing with the lightest subject matter. It is about an undercover cop trying to track down a serial killer who is murdering gay men. The original cut of the film featured explicit non-simulated sexual acts and got an X rating from the MPAA, though a pared down version without the hardcore scenes got an R rating. Whether as an act of protest or in the name of art, however, Friedkin spliced in multiple single frames of actual penetrative intercourse into the final version.

This 2006 dramedy (that’s a drama-comedy, for the record) is unique in that it both features real adult scenes and was generally well received by critics. The central plot of the movie revolves around a woman’s lifelong failure to achieve orgasm, so it’s also quite natural that the film features a fair amount of sexual activity. In this case, it involves a fair amount of people involved in said activity, too. And lots of love triangles.

In the 2001 feature film Intimacy , the art of lovemaking is at the center of the film. It is about a man and woman having an anonymous affair during the course of which the man falls in love with the woman only to find out that she has a husband and son whom she will not leave. This brings the affair to an end, the lack of intimacy between the pair now no longer possible based on his emotions and her revelations. To make the movie work, the actors went all the way. Well, all the way to third base, anyway.

This Danish feature film is unique among our list in that it was written and directed with an eye toward a specific audience: women. It’s a romantic comedy intended primarily for a female audience with a comical series of romantic trysts forming the basis of the narrative. And at the basis of many of those scenes is very real sexual intercourse. It wasn’t exactly a contender for the Best Foreign Language Film Academy Award, but plenty of Danish women certainly appreciated the movie.

The 1973 feature film Don’t Look Now deals with the grief parents feel after the tragic loss of a child. Not exactly lighthearted material, to be sure, but certainly powerful. In the film, Donald Sutherland and Julie Christie portray a husband and wife trying to repair their lives after their daughter’s death, and in one passionate scene they rekindle their romance. For real. This movie is one of the few films that both features real hanky panky and that is actually quite good.

If you love the music of the early 200os, including songs by bands like The Dandy Warhols and Franz Ferdinand, then you just might like the 2004 film 9 Songs . If you love seeing actors have actual, non-simulated lovemaking multiple times during a single movie, you will probably like the film. And if you don’t mind a rather elevated degree of pretension, then you just might love this musically-oriented 2004 feature.

Female Twilight fans who were on Team Edward will probably flock to this 2008 drama not due to a sudden interest in famed painter Salvador Dalí or the poet tragic poet Federico García Lorca, but rather because in the film, actor Robert Pattinson actually masturbates. Now, you can’t see anything other than his face, but it’s still rather rare that an A-list celebrity goes through with an “act” like that and then freely admits it later.

We will never know for sure whether or not the adult scenes in the classic film Last Tango in Paris were real or not, because the participants, Marlon Brando and Maria Schneider, are both deceased, and director Bernardo Bertolucci has been tight-lipped about the matter. We’re hoping most of it was simulated, as some of the racy scenes depicted is not exactly consensual, but rumors abound that the stars genuinely got intimate. Schneider would later say she regretted making the movie, which adds to the intrigue.

Surprise, surprise! A movie called Nymphomaniac has lots of adult fun in it! The movie also features multiple well-known actors, including Uma Thurman, Christian Slater, and Shia LaBeouf. But while it certainly looks like said stars are having real, unvarnished “fun”, that’s just movie magic. The production hired body doubles to have intercourse and then used digital editing to place the faces of the starring actors over their bodies. And yet for all that work, the film still isn’t very good. Oh well.

If you want a charming feel good film starring Hugh Grant and Keira Knightly, go rent Love Actually. By which I mean download or stream it; no one goes anywhere to rent anything anymore, of course. If you want a decidedly more jaded and visceral movie told in the same interwoven vignette style and with added spice of actual on-screen penetration, instead check out the 2011 Hong Kong feature Love Actually… Sucks!

Actress and comedian Amy Schumer is known for pushing boundaries. Her standup comedy and many of her on-screen exploits are raw and edgy, and she never shies away from material that might make others blush. Did she and pro wrestling star John Cena actually have intercourse during the filming of the movie Trainwreck , though? According to one interview Schumer gave, yes, yes they did. She might have been joking, but she and her co-star have let the rumor persist.

Depending on who you talk to, John Waters’ 1972 film Pink Flamingos is either one of the greatest movies ever made, pushing boundaries and redefining cinema, or is an absolutely disgusting piece of filth that should never be watched by anyone. The movie’s own tagline is “An Exercise in Poor Taste,” so you at least know what to expect. Sort of. Among many of the horrid scenes in the movie is a moment where a drag queen performs actual fellatio on another “actor” who is playing the role of “her” son. Yeah.

Caligula was supposed to be a masterpiece. It was supposed to blend art, drama, history, and intimacy in a way the world had never seen before, changing filmmaking forever. The cast included Malcom McDowell, Helen Mirren, Peter O’Toole, and other stars. Gore Vidal worked on the script. And who produced this sweeping epic? Penthouse. Yes, that Penthouse. The uncut version of the film features dozens of scenes of real adult fun, mostly performed by Penthouse Pets. Both the uncut and edited versions of the movie are atrocious, but hey, there’s hanky panky.
... but it costs a lot of money to get that done.

Buckle up. Onscreen erotica comes in many forms.
Do you remember the first time you were sexually excited by an image on a screen? ( We do! ) ( Here too! ) It might've been a music video to a teen-pop bop, or a particularly mushy episode of Buffy . Most likely, it was a movie of the PG-13 persuasion, which you snuck a viewing of far from the eyes of your parents when you were nowhere near the age of 13. Looking back, those scenes were cute. Harmless. Nowhere near the sex scenes you've seen in movies since you branched out into the R-rated category and beyond.
Sex scenes are nearly as old as movies themselves. In fact, one of the first films to be screened for the public debuted in 1896 and was called The Kiss. It was quite steamy for its time, featuring a full-on brushing of the lips, which, let us tell you, really riled up the modest-minded folks of the late 19th century. But these days, a movie sex scene has to accomplish a lot more to be memorable—especially when we've been so impressed by the earth-shattering sex scenes appearing in television shows of late (see: Normal People and Sex/Life ). It has to be downright crazy.
"Crazy" can be broadly interpreted in the realm of onscreen sex. There's the hot stuff that begs for repeated watchings. There are downright hilarious sexual interactions that involve comedic timing, musical numbers, awkward improv, and/or puppets. There are scenes from horror movies that make us recoil in disgust, and boundary-pushing vignettes that inspire a trove of thought pieces. There's most of what Micky Rourke touched in the '80s. Here's a selection of 65 such movie sex scenes, from the classics to recent releases, each one seemingly steamier than the next.
Actors: Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal
Fun fact: With Brokeback , Ang Lee helped put LGBTQ+ stories into the mainstream, and the film won three out of its eight Oscar nominations.
Actors: Cate Blanchett and Rooney Mara
Fun fact: Director Todd Haynes described the filming of the sex scene as "very much like shooting a musical number." Sure!
Actors: Willem Dafoe and Barbara Hershey
Fun fact: Audiences lost their minds when Jesus had sex with Mary Magdalene and fathered a child, but the film ultimately got away with it because it was technically during a hallucination that occurs as Jesus is nailed to the cross.
Fun fact: Rosie Perez's dance sequence at the beginning of the film to Public Enemy’s “Fight the Power” took over eight hours to film.
Actors: Ashton Sanders and Jharrel Jerome
Fun fact: It was the first time either actor had ever filmed a sex scene, and the film almost lost Best Picture at the Oscars to La La Land simply because presenter Faye Dunaway was given Emma Stone's Best Actress card to read by mistake.
Actors: Josh O'Connor and Alec Secăreanu
Fun fact: O'Connor and Secăreanu worked on a farm for weeks to learn how to handle farm chores and animals...and presumably, how to roll around in the mud.
Actors : Agathe Rousselle and a Cadillac
Fun fact : In all 11 drafts Ducournau wrote for Titane , the sex scene between Rousselle and a classic muscle car remained the same in each version of the script.
Actors: Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Rajkummar Rao, and Adarsh Gourav
Fun fact: Chopra Jonas is so famous in India that to facilitate the film's shooting, most of her scenes (much like this voyeuristic one) take place inside a car instead of out in public settings.
Actors: Michelle Williams and Ryan Gosling
Fun fact: This film was originally slapped with an NC-17 rating because of its realistic oral sex scene, giving some interesting insight into how female pleasure on screen is critiqued. Gosling's response: “You shouldn’t be penalized for doing a good job.”
Fun fact: This film, about a woman whose vagina bares teeth to horrifying mid-sex results, has a shocking 80 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
Actors: Keira Knightley and James McAvoy
Fun fact: Though the library sex scene is now considered iconic, it is somewhat overshadowed by the downright legendary green dress Knightley wears in it.
Actors: Alia Shawkat and Laia Costa
Fun fact: The basic premise of this film as that two women attempt to have sex once an hour for 24 straight hours.
Fun fact: To shoot the lesbian sex scene in a way that made his leads feel comfortable, Park gave the male crew members the day off, hired a female boom operator, and filmed the encounter with a remote controlled camera.
Actors: Timothée Chalamet and Armie Hammer
Fun fact: In the first and only rehearsal for this film, Guadagnino had his actors immediately act out the scene where they make out furiously. (This is also the film that launched a thousand peach memes.)
Actors: Halle Berry and Billy Bob Thornton
Fun fact: Halle Berry became the first Black woman to win the Academy Award for Best Actress for this movie. Twenty years later, she remains the only Black woman to have won it.
Actors: Eiko Matsuda and Tatsuya Fuji
Fun fact: This erotic film featured unsimulated (a.k.a. very real) sex scenes between its actors, and thus kicked up a lot of controversy in 1976.
Actors: Jason Segel, Mila Kunis, Kristen Bell, and Russell Brand
Fun fact: To promote the film, billboards were placed around big cities attacking the fictional Sarah Marshall. That bothered some real-life Sarah Marshalls.
Actors: Will Smith and Hayley Marie Norman
Fun fact: Hancock, an alcoholic superhero stuck in the modern day with severe amnesia and sexual frustrations, is supposedly the Greek god Zeus, and his love interest/sister, played by Charlize Theron, is supposedly the Greek goddess Hera.
Actors: Jack Reynor, Isabelle Grill, and a lot of extras
Fun fact: It took two grueling weeks to film this nudity-filled, crazy-yet-terrifying ritualistic sex scene.
Actors: Garrett Clayton, Christian Slater, Keegan Allen, and James Franco
Fun fact: This film was based on a real-life murder plot within the gay porn industry.
Actors: Lisa Bonet and Mickey Rourke
Fun fact: A combination of rough sex, spurting blood, and Rourke's buttocks got this horror movie an X rating, before the scene was trimmed to appeal to the MPAA.
Directed by: Sam Taylor-Johnson; James Foley
Actors: Dakota Johnson and Jamie Dornan
Fun fact: This soft-core take on BDSM pulled in over $1 billion at the box office across all three movies. The books they was based on were actually fan-fic for the Twilight tween series.
Actors: Melissa Rauch and Sebastian Stan
Fun fact : Rauch used a body double for this movie's acrobatic sex scene, but Stan did not. That's flexibility.
Actors: Sam Worthington and Zoe Saldana
Fun fact: Cameron is planning to make four Avatar sequels. No word yet if any will feature CGI tail sex, though.
Actors: Lakeith Stanfield and Armie Hammer
Fun fact: It wouldn't be a movie about soulless corporate ladder-climbing without coke-fueled orgies. Stanfield said he wanted to go nude, but his character's nudity was eventually cut from the script.
Directed by: Terry Jones and Terry Gilliam
Fun fact: The Monty Python troupe wrote a rousing musical number called "Every Sperm Is Sacred," along with this live sex ed demonstration.
Actors: Jada Pinkett Smith and Allen Payne
Fun fact: The sex scenes in this movie had to be cut down to avoid an NC-17 rating.
Fun fact: The evil scientist Durand-Durand who puts Barbarella through the Excessive Machine was the inspiration behind the band Duran Duran's name.
Actors: Winona Ryder and Keanu Reeves
Fun fact: The non-stop, high-velocity banter between Ryder and Reeves throughout Destination Wedding does not let up during this awkward sex scene.
Actors: Isabelle Huppert and Benoît Magimel
Fun fact: The Piano Teacher explores themes of sadomasochism and sexuality in a way that makes Fifty Shades look like Saturday morning cartoons.
Fun fact: Glazer hired people off the street, not actors, to portray the men who succumb to Johansson's alien allure and ultimately die in bizarre, mesmerizing ways.
Actors: Julianne Moore and Mark Wahlberg
Fun fact: Originally, Mark Wahlberg's prosthetic penis was 12 inches long, but because that looked ridiculous, it was shortened to seven inches.
Fun Fact: Two scenes, one of them a threesome, had to be cut from this film for it to avoid an NC-17 rating. The orgy scene and this masturbation scene remained, making the sequel that much crazier than the already-crazy first Basic Instinct .
Fun Fact: JGL knew he wouldn't get a big Hollywood studio to make his porn addiction movie, so he did it on his own.
Actors: Susan Sarandon and Peter Hinwood
Fun fact: Sarandon refused to appear nude during this much-beloved, musical ensemble number.
Fun Fact: Cena said this scene was written to be much more physical, but Schumer and Apatow let him ad lib, so it became something truly memorable.
Actors: Tommy Wiseau and Juliette Danielle
Fun Fact: Wiseau claimed, "I have to show my ass or this movie won't sell." Show his ass he did.
Directed by: Greg Tiernan and Conrad Vernon
Actors: Seth Rogen, Kristen Wiig, and many more
Fun Fact: This was the first ever 3D CGI-animated film to get an R rating by the MPAA, for obvious reasons.
