6. Sex, Lies and Videotape
Another James Spader movie makes the list of films hotter than Fifty Shades of Grey. This time he plays an impotent house guest who gets off on videotaping women talking about their sexual experiences and fantasies. Andie MacDowell plays a repressed housewife who is initially appalled by this friend of her husband’s, but grows increasingly intrigued. Her free spirited sister, played by Laura San Giacomo, and philandering husband, played by Peter Gallagher, make a compelling counterpoint to the other two’s frigidity. Again, it’s the character development and sexual tension that make this film work where Fifty Shades falls flat.
