Subject: Favorite kiss from a movie

Written By: quirky_cat_girl on 11/26/07 at 10:53 am

What is your favorite kiss from a movie?  I have given it a lot of thought, and I think that my all-time favorite kiss scene has to be from the 80's movie, "Some Kind Of Wonderful". For those of you who have never seen this movie (you definitely should ;)), it is basically about a guy who is from the "wrong side of the tracks", who happens to be in love with a girl from the popular crowd. In the meantime, he is best friends with this tomboy type of girl, who secretly loves him, but doesn't want to tell him because she thinks that he doesn't feel the same and that it would affect their friendship.

So, setting up for the kiss scene. Keith (Eric Stoltz) has scored a date with this popular girl, Amanda (Lea Thompson)...and he and Watts (Mary Stuart Masterson) are discussing it. She brings up the question, "what happens if she wants you to kiss her?" (knowing that Keith has not had that kind of experience with women, she takes advantage of the situation, by offering him her "help" and "practice" with kissing). It follows with an intense kiss (from both parts). Everytime I watch this scene..I get chills.

Oh, another one I love is in ET when ET is watching the Quiet Man where John Wayne kissed Maureen O'Hara and Elliott is in school and basically plays out the scene but has to get a chair to stand on to kiss his classmate.

GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!!!!
  ;)

I swear we were separated at birth or something,... okay you just took longer to come out!  ;D Its kinda freaky that we not only enjoy the same things but the same moments... that kiss makes the movie for me! 

Another one that worked for me was Top Gun... I remember sitting in BK after watching it asking my friends why I couldn't find someone to kiss my neck like that... the old lady in the booth next to me gave me the dirtiest look ;D

I believe that kiss from "Notorious" with Cary Grant and Ingrid Bergman was sensational. Also, another underestimated kiss was in (of all movies!) "It's a Wonderful Life."


Here's the "Notorious" kissing scene...

oh, okay! as you were then. i thoiught you mighta been gearing up to give my movie a hard time and i woulda been forced to leap to its defense. but you are plainly one of us. ;)

i am kinda more of a sucker for nat in those scenes though. i had just seen whatever star wars movie she'd just done and i was fully prepared to hate her in garden state so imagine my surprise when she didn't suck princess amydala ass.

Hands down, the best Kiss ever is...





















Lady and the Tramp.

And no mention of "Spiderman"? Its kiss is the Gone With The Wind kiss of my generation.

What about from Happy Gilmore, when he and Virginia are on their first date of sorts, even if just "as friends". They're playing hockey at the arena when it's closed and getting to know each other. He has "Endless Love" playing over the soundsystem, when he casually goes, "What? Friends listen to Endless Love in the dark!" and tells her if she misses, she'll have to kiss him...but if she gets the puck into the net, he'll never bother her about it again.

Well, you can sorta tell by this point she likes him and that his personality is rubbing off on her, because she gets it in, and says "I didn't see it go in", and they kiss for the first time. Old-school Adam Sandler reminds me so much of myself in alot of ways, and it was just in general was such a sweet scene, because up until that point, she viewed him as something of a rebellious bad boy.

Exactly, I think it's more of the anticipation before the kiss, than the actual kiss sometimes. That scene really sold me on the film. It felt very genuine and you could really see the chemistry between the two.

Ahhh....Adam Sandler.... I do like him ...and I like him best when he plays opposite Drew Barrymore. 
In "50 Last Kisses", a film I loved...there were many, many outstanding kisses.  But the classic kiss was in "The Wedding Singer" on the plane when Adam turns to Billy Idol, who is talking about a record contract...and says something like..."Errr, Billy, do you mind if I kiss the girl I love" or something.  I think Drew's enthusiasm is what makes them click! 8)

XD She's trying to be so sexy and whatnot. Then she totally goes into that kiss like an unexperienced third grader.

she is sexy and whatnot. i think the kiss is supposed to be like that, not third grade though, maybe 6th  ;) 
since he knew her as a kid and now she's a little bit more grown up. It's a great scene, the older guy trying to get away before she recognizes him, and then the young fox jumps off the stage like a predator to get to him. yeah, that works for me.

Michael Pare and Diane Lane at the end of the movie *Streets Of Fire*  it's not real deep or long or too wet, but it's meaningful with a little bit of pain because it's a farewell kiss, plus the background music of The Sorels-I Can Dream About You  is excellent.

the video is 4:03 minutes long and their kiss is at the end, but this is an enjoyable movie, it's worth it.  I recommend watching the movie.

Not a movie but the last episode of M*A*S*H where Hawkeye & Margaret kiss while B.J., Charles, & Col. Potter are fidgeting, pretending to be doing something else while waiting for the two of them to finish the kiss.
