The Unexpected Reality Behind Hollywood's Steamiest Scenes

All great movies have at least one great love scene in them, and these classics are no exception. From Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze's iconic pottery scene in "Ghost" to more modern, humorous takes like "American Pie," find out which steamy scenes were heavy enough to make the cut.

Emilia Clarke and Jason Momoa, "Game of Thrones"

Despite the rocky start to the Khaleesi and Khal's relationship, the chemistry between actors Emilia Clarke and Jason Momoa was steamy from the start. However, to help ease the tension while filming some of the more intimate scenes, Momoa wore a bright pink sock instead of the typical flesh-colored sock in an attempt to make Clark laugh. It certainly worked, because their scenes are some of Clarke and Momoa's most memorable moments. 

Henry Cavill, "The Tudors"

Despite the period drama's famous raunchy sex scenes, filming them wasn't as exciting as one would think. Star Henry Cavill said that he had to apologize profusely after filming one particularly hot scene since he'd gotten aroused and felt embarrassed and unprofessional. All that tension certainly couldn't have been one-sided, though.
