Sexy movies to watch on Vday night!

Here's my all time list of the sexiest movies! Rent these and cuddle with your love- whether it's your man, woman or self! :)

Lust, Caution- This is a movie about a woman who is a spy and is supposed to become a lover to a man who is some kind of government agent- the trouble is she begins to have feelings for him. It is super steamy and sexy, with an intricate plot underneath.

Bound- This is about a woman who is unhappy with her gangster boyfriend and involves her lesbian neighbor in a plot of theft and revenge. Super hot and a cool movie.

Dirty Dancing- Classic!

Unfaithful- Diane Lane is perfection and you won't believe the ending!

The Notebook- This also goes under the highly romantic category, but it's also very sexy- Ryan Gosling!!

9 1/2 weeks- This is back when Mickey Rourke was really sexy. Yes kids, Mickey Rourke used to be really hot!! I also love Kim Basinger's hair and clothes in this movie.

Mulholland Drive- also the reason why I think Naomi Watts is one of the best actresses out there. This movie is very complex and dark and disturbing and SEXY.

Groundhog Day

In honor of Groundhog day I'd like to highlight.. well, Groundhog Day!

It's a movie about a man (the AWESOME and hysterical Bill Murray) who is stuck reliving the same day (Groundhog day) over and over for years and years. Basically because he's a prick.
If you have never seen this movie stop whatever you're doing and go out and buy it right now!! It's probably only 5 bucks at Walmart.

Winter recommendations

This year New England weather is brutal! Here are some wintry movies to get you through...

Alive

Think you've got it pretty bad? Watch this movie and you'll feel better about your situation. 

I had never seen this film until recently. I always heard all the bad stuff... eating people! Cannibalism!

Don't let that stop you from watching this uplifting (sorry for the cliches) and spiritual movie- it was great!

It's about a rugby team from Uruguay who's plane crashes deep into the snowy mountains of Chile. In winter. Around 30 or so survive the crash with barely any food and hardly any winter clothes. The question isn't HOW they survive but the WILL to survive such an incredible ordeal.

Here are more great chilly movies...

The Shining.
One of my all time favorite horror flicks. So scary!

The Thing.
This is another super scary movie. "the thing" is an alien creature that can mimic the looks of any living person or animal that it kills. Creepy!

Smilla's Sense of Snow.
A great murder/mystery.

Fargo.
Another classic. Lovable and detestable characters all rolled into one.

The Ice Storm.
A very unperfect family movie.

30 Days of Night.
Sometimes you falsely accuse a movie of being cheesy (maybe having to do with Josh Hartnett) then rent them on Netflix and realize you should have seen it in the theater! This was one of those movies for me. A good vampire flick and a great performance by Danny Huston who is one of my favorite actors.

Cold Mountain.
Actually I didn't really like this one, but you might.

Black Swan

She deserves it...

What I thought was the most interesting about "Black Swan" was it's perfect casting. Sometimes a person is so perfect for a role you would've thought they wrote the script with the actor in mind. Maybe they did.
Natalie Portman plays Nina, a ballerina who so desperately wants to play the lead in her companies ballet Black Swan. In the ballet she must play both a good princess type and an evil temptress. The head of the company (played by Vincent Cassel) thinks she's perfect as a good girl but that she's so wrong as the bad girl. Who actually would be a great bad girl would be new comer Lily (played by Mila Kunis)
*BTW- Yeah, Mila did a nice acting job in this role ...but Oscar?  Uh, No.
Why didn't they just hire both girls for both roles? They look a lot alike!
But anyways, basically the movie is about how Nina tortures herself trying to be both sides of the swan role. She also has a creepy mom.
About my perfect casting comment... Natalie Portman comes off (to me) as a very sweet, innocent type of person... just like Nina... and the fact that she went THERE in this film... it was incredible to watch.
