There are certain things you just can't fake — sexual chemistry is one of them.
We've seen plenty of films with couples who are about as believable as Santa Clause. In other words, nonexistent.
Then, there are the on-screen couples brimming with so much chemistry, you're convinced that they're together in real life.
Here are 19 such examples. Someone crack a window because it is hot in here!
You can't tell us this wasn't actually a love story! Part of what makes the horror flick so good is how the actors really seemed like a married couple. The realness of this helped make those exorcism scenes seem even more real — and scarier.
"They were such a healthy couple in an era where the 'dysfunctional family' trope was becoming more popular and I feel like a lot of people overlooked how good of a relationship they really had because they were 'weird.'" - u/MiniatureWendigo
The chemistry was undeniable between them! One Redditor's dad encountered them at a local burger shop when they were filming the film. They said that they acted really close off-camera, which isn't surprising in the least.
"They had such a playfulness/flirty chemistry in How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days. It looks like they had a lot of fun making that movie." - u/megmor
The pair complemented each other so well in the thriller-action movie. There was instant chemistry between them that even kids could pick up on.
"There's only one right answer. Every time they're onscreen together, it's so full of chemistry, it might explode. Their dances, their fights, their looks of longing...the scene where they're standing in the pavilion in the rain is pure sexual tension. I’ve never seen two actors have chemistry like that." - rebeccakate13
Many people believed they were actually dating because of their chemistry in the film. They had perfect harmony — both musically and otherwise.
"There's a reason they've been romantic leads in multiple films together. They're on fire in literally anything together!" - dianah423074c8e
They would be a perfect pair, considering they're both from Australia! There's an adorable scene at the end where they reunite. You really think they're in love because of their electric chemistry.
"They had natural chemistry. Go watch the scene where he shows her the necklace and closes the box on her fingers — it was meant to be a blooper, but they were so cute that they left it in the movie!" - lizlunavae
Thanks to the sexual chemistry between them, you were rooting for them to be together from the start. And since Pullman rarely plays characters who get the girl in the end, it made their relationship even more special.
"It's a classic, and their chemistry is undeniably good. Whenever you see the both of them onscreen, you believe in their love. Especially when Rose got off the lifeboat and Jack rushed to her and said how stupid she was for getting off the boat. I was like, 'Oh, this is real.' From start to finish, their connection was just so genuine." - dannabaste14
Like many other Hollywood pairings — Richard Gere and Julia Roberts, Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan, and Kate Hudson and Matthew Mcconaughey — we can understand why these two are always in films together. They light up the screen in this film!
"Their love/hate relationship was so authentic, and you could easily imagine how passionate their relationship must have been all those years ago. Indy’s romantic entanglements in the other films couldn’t hold a candle to Marion." - clothildedauphin
An impending bomb wasn't the only tension in the film! There was also some insane heat brewing between these two. They even later admitted to having a crush on one another.
"How...HOW...could no one name these two? I know it's a Disney movie, but their chemistry was INCREDIBLE." - nakshkhapekar
This one's pretty obvious, considering both actors admitted to having an affair while Ford was married. It just goes to show that their insane sexual chemistry wasn't all in our heads.
"They deserve an Academy Award, simply because they managed to act so believably as teens in love, even though they hated each other in real life!" - Annariina Hietanen
