Most erotic scene of all time is from The Americans where Philip pulls Elizabethโs tooth out with a pair of rusty pliers in their basement as an act of love because he knows itโs been bothering her and she canโt go to a dentist or itโll tip off the FBI ๐ฎโ๐จ๐ฎโ๐จ๐ฎโ๐จ
Not sexy but romantic: Emma (2020) when Mr. Knightly goes โif I loved you less I might be able to talk about it moreโ and Anya Taylor Joy gives herself a nosebleed. Deeply underrated movie!!!!
For me itโs when sheโs doing her walk of shame in front of the Brooklyn promenade and kicks a can playfully, then soars into the kitchen as Olympia Dukakis asks "what the hells the matta wit you?"
Also I like the table scene at the end when at one point the two of them are stealing glances and giggling to each other, them united observing the craziness of her family. Itโs just a sweet little intimate moment!!!
Underrated but I love the ending scene of them being tender with each other and somewhat in a state of undress outside (scandalous) while saying โMrs. Darcyโฆ Mr. Darcyโ to each other.
I swear this isn't pandering but the rotating tension between Art/Patrick/Tashi in Challengers had me like that woman all riled up watching the football game. Eroticism is about what doesn't (but could) happen, not what does!
And re: romance: "get on your knees" and "it'll pass" get a lot of (rightful) attention, but when Fleabag is leaving the alley in the first episode of Season 2 and the Hot Priest says, "Well fuck you then" and she turns around and sees him giving her this impish smile... I was locked the fuck in.
Love JLD in Enough Said with James Gandolfini. One of Gandolfiniโs best, most lovely performances.
The lovemaking scene between Sarandon and Costner in Bull Durham.
The slowed-down, quiet love between Costner and Houston in the Bodyguard.
Frida Khalo, broken and whispering: โWhy do you stay?โ
Diego Rivera smiling, gently: โYou stupid girl.โ Salma and Molina steal the scene from each other. So understated and so beautiful. When I visited Khaloโs house I saw an old black and white clip of him stroking her face and this is the scene I thought of. Itโs like theyโd come to life.
Jess and Rory in GG. Their tension, their discovering of love, then falling in love- all of it.
And any scene where men are falling for Lorelai who is radiant in all of GG. When she walks up to Luke at the end and he says,โI justโฆ.wanted you to be happy.โ And they wordlessly fall into each otherโs arms at last, as if there were no other person or possibility in the world.
Buffy and Angel. Esp in the crossover episode out of time when she starts crying -โNo! Itโs not enough time! I will never forget.โ Love the backstory to this scene. David was so overcome by her distraught performance that he began to comfort the actress for real, and whispered โItโs ok Sarah, itโs okโ even in the episode.
Every single scene where Giles shows his love for anyone in the Buffy series but especially Jenny.
The entire arc of love between Finn and Estella in the Paltrow version of Great Expectations. Obviously when he runs in from the rain and asks her to dance and she abandons her fiancรฉe wordlessly, and then at the end when she asks for his forgiveness and he says, โDonโt you know me at all?โ
The scenes where the characters Dwight, Michael and Jim all win over the loves of their lives. Especially Steve Carrell when he proposes to Holly. I cry every time.
Iโd have to write a separate post about Audrey Hepburn and Grace Kelly era movies. To many to write.
"Baby, you are going to miss that plane."

And the scene of them kissing at the end and Bill Nighy giving them the privacy, under the guise of a drafty sitting room, to do so!
Ugh itโs so good
Came here to say this!!!
Nick Cage walking Cher home after the Opera in Moonstruck. Honestly just that whole film is such big romance for me.
โWhere are you taking me?!โ โTO THE BEDโ I die every time

The Mr. Darcy hand flex in the 2005 Pride and Prejudice. See also: Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth Bennet walking across the field to each other at sunrise.
Pride and Prejudice but the scene where they are dancing and everyone else in the room disappears ๐ฅฒ
So gorgeous!
Underrated but I love the ending scene of them being tender with each other and somewhat in a state of undress outside (scandalous) while saying โMrs. Darcyโฆ Mr. Darcyโ to each other.
During Wuthering Heights I found myself being like they should have just done Pride and Prejudice but make it wuthering heights
When he chokes up!!

Yes! I came back to the thread to mention fleabag
Fruit shopping scene in klute, โyou happen to me all over againโ in age of innocence, hand phone scene in before sunrise, I can keep goingโฆ.
the fruit shopping scene in Klute lives in my head rent free YES
Real romance looks like the last scene of Fargo with him making the eggs and her complimenting the duck painting.
Little Women, 1994: Theodore Laurence (Christian Bale) saying โI have loved you...
...since the moment
I clamped eyes on youโ to Jo March (Winona Ryder)!
โI swear Iโll be a saint. Iโll let you win every argument.โ ๐ญ
โDo all lovers feel like theyโre inventing something?โ + โkiss me, my girl, before Iโm sickโ
Portrait of a lady on fire!!!!!

Out of Sight. The scene when they meet in the bar after the scene when theyโre stuck in the trunk. ๐ฅ
