Craig becomes the first fair-haired 007 James Bond and he is also more rugged than suave, and not as perfect looking as fans of the 44-year-old movie series have come toexpect.

Basic Instinct (1992)-The film that introduced the world to Sharon Stone's crotch and gave Michael Douglas the chance to act out his sex-addiction on screen. Stone is the chief suspect in a murder investigation, while Douglas is the detective who gets alittle too involved in the case. Basic Instinct's infamous scene comes when Stone uncrosses her legs under interrogation.
Stealing Beauty- A tender, sensual coming of age tale from Italian maestro Bernardo Bertolucci, Stealing Beauty follows a 19-year-old American girl, Lucy Harmon (Liv Tyler), as she travels to Tuscany to spend time with family friends following the suicide of her mother. As well as recovery from this tragic event, Lucy plans to use the trip to lose her virginity - the scene in which she does this, with a young Italian boy, is a masterpiece of understated eroticism.

Boogie Nights(1997)-Paul Thomas Anderson takes us on a voyage to the golden era of 70s Hollywood P**n, before VHS, when it was considered an art form. Mark Wahlberg plays an aspiring actor with a huge talent, who is spotted by P**n director Burt Reynoldsand made into a star. Boogie Nights boasts comedy names like Dirk Diggler, Jack Horner and Brock Landers. It also contains explicit sex scenes, such as when Wahlberg and Julianne Moore have sex on camera as P**n stars for the first time.
Dirty Dancing(1987)-The seminal coming of age tale of the 80s, Dirty Dancing remains the teen girl's favourite to this day. Patrick Swayze reminds us all of why he became famous, as a holiday camp rogue who seduces an innocent girl with his moves. The ultimate chick flick, Dirty Dancing continues to sell well today, perhaps in part due to steamy moments like the one in which Swayze first dances with Jennifer Grey.
Wild Things(1998)-Incredibly trashy, but hugely enjoyable thriller, that combines graphic violence, innovative plot twists and an inspired cast led by three of Hollywood's biggest teen idols: Matt Dillon, Neve Campbell and Denise Richards. The movie's glossy production values and high school setting might initially fool you into thinking this is no more than a feature-length 90210 episode but it's not long before Wild Things' A-list cast are steaming up the screen in a series of sex scenes that leave little to the imagination. The movie's target audience of male teens watch this movie over and over again just for the moment when Neve and Denise get it on, and then there's the famous threesome...
Bound (1996)- Before the Wachowski brothers travelled into the movie stratosphere with The Matrix, they got the chance to test their love of strong women in Bound. Gina Gershon and Jennifer Tilly have a steamy love affair, before attempting to rob $2m ofthe mafia's money from Joe Pantoliano. In a scene that would be a clich, if it wasn't so hot, Gershon comes round to Tilly's to do some plumbing, but ends up having sex with her.
Top Gun(1986)-An out and out 80s classic. Cruise is Lt Pete 'Maverick' Mitchell, the top-gun pilot on a testosterone high, Kelly McGillis his devastatingly beautiful flight trainer. Of course they get it together, but it's not their "soft and gentle" love-making that sets this movie on fire. Top Gun has come to be seen as a bona fide, mega-camp gay movie, a theory supported by none other than Quentin Tarantino in his film Sleep With Me. It's easy to see why. A phallic backdrop of jets and motorbikes combines with the fetishism of men in uniform and an atmosphere of bristling testosterone-fuelled competition. The scene in which an oiled up trio of Maverick, Iceman and Slider play volleyball, is regarded as one of the greatest screen representations of homo-eroticism ever. Who'd have thought it?
