Big Kisses on the Big Screen
Here you will find some of the best movie kisses of all time. I will not be presumptuous enough to put them into some ranked system, because it is far to subjective - the movies are too different, and the kisses are too different. They cannot be properly be compared. The movie kisses included are what I believe are "of the best".
This is a list which is obviously always growing. If you think of one I have forgotten (or would like to dispute one I have included) visit the guestbook at the bottom of the page.
Kiss Me
Movie Kiss Montage
Ghost
(1990)
This kiss was actually not effective for me. I have put it on the list by popular demand. I actually laughed through this scene, but to each his own.Ghost
Is this a kissing book?

Mizzike says:
It's hard to say, but I have to go with the kiss! At times, it can be that you want to people to kiss really badly... but if the kiss was less than par, it makes the characters worthless! If you played a reel of kissing scenes, it's easy to tell which ones are good and which are bad just by seeing the kiss itself... without even knowing the characters!

Beth says:
True, the characters are important, but if their kiss isn't up to scratch it's a complete let down! You would still know a good kiss when you saw one even if you didn't know the characters. I think the atmosphere is really important, a good example is The Notebook, the kiss scene in the rain! That would have to be my number one. :)

The characters. There are just some people that you would not want to see kissing.

We all know we wanted Kevin Costner to to kiss Whitney, "The Bodyguard." This time it was about the characters.

The Goonies
(1985)
Hmmm. Another underdog kissing his brother's girl. I love it! This kiss was great. Again, awkward and unexpected. With the sense of emanating danger, the spooky setting, and an absolutely lovable little nerd. How can you not be pleased to watch this first kiss?The Goonies
Spider-Man
(2002)
The ultimate solution to the question "where do the noses go?"And, the rain! A kiss in the rain always gets bonus points. Passion supersedes having sense enough to come in out of the rain.
Spider-Man
More rain.
Classic Movie Posters Kissing
The definition of a classic.
The Longest Kiss
The longest kiss in films history was between Jane Wyman and Regis Tommey in the 1941 film, You're in the Army Now. The kiss lasted 3 minutes and 5 seconds, or 1/25th of the total running time.
Some Kind of Wonderful
(1987)
The old "let me teach you" trick, eh?He does not need any lessons.
And, if you couldn't figure out the end of the movie by this kiss alone then you're in need of some real relationship therapy.
Some Kind of Wonderful
The Wedding Singer
(1998)
Hmm. Apparently, practice kisses were big in the eighties.
Timeless.

Star Wars

Any kiss by Eugene Levy is memorable.(I just creeped myself out.)
Well, it is memorable.
A Mighty Wind
Mr. and Mrs. Smith

Shrek

Hands down, the best ogre-on-ogre kiss on film.

Personally, I saw too much bacteria on the screen for this kiss to work for me, but to each his own.Pirates of the Caribbean - Dead Man's Chest
Daredevil
Daredevil and Electra, without their spandex, kiss in the rain where he can "see" her. Again, the rain factor helps.Daredevil

- As a kid I would go yuk when the kissing happened, changed my mind since then! A kiss is incredibly intimate and must be very difficult to portray on camera (especially if you don't like the person you are snogging), whereas acting the sex is just like gymnastics. Erm don't know where I'm going with this... will stop right now!

- I just HAVE to add my very favorite kiss....its from An Officer and A Gentleman...when Richard Gere comes into the paper factory at the end of the show to get Debra Winger, there is so much passion there. I love your lens so much. I guess I am just as much of a romantic as the next person. Oh, and yes, definitely Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Gray in Dirty Dancing. Whew! Thanks for sharing!

- Great lens! I enjoyed reading it and reminiscing about some of my favorite movies! It's hard to choose just one favorite kiss, but I think I'll have to go with The Princess Bride... after all, since the invention of the kiss, there have only been five kisses that were rated the most passionate, the most pure. That one left them all behind. :)
