Sexy Beast (2000)

The Model: Ray Winstone, soaking up a bit of sun in the opening scene of Jonathan Glazer’s superlative thriller (beer gut: model’s own).

The Swimsuit: A tiny pair of gold budgie-smugglers. We’re not about to ask him to cover up…

From Dusk Till Dawn (1996)

The Model: A never-sexier Salma Hayek, starring as exotic dancer / vampire queen Satanico Pandemonium. Great name…

The Swimsuit: There’s no ocean for miles, but that’s okay, as Satanico’s crimson bikini is merely a prop for her dance routine. And vampires don’t tend to be very big on swimming, as a general rule.

Just Go With It (2011)

The Model: Sports Illustrated regular Brooklyn Decker, inprobably cast the girlfriend of Adam Sandler. He never seems to do too badly on screen, does he?

The Swimsuit:
A gaudy yellow concoction designed to draw attention to those jaw-dropping curves. Mission accomplished!

  • Keanu Reeves as FBI Agent Johnny Utah and Patrick Swayze as Bodhi "Bodhisattva" in the movie Point Break. The best movies on Hulu to watch right now
  • Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles in Sonic 3 The 25 best movies on Prime Video to watch right now

Suddenly, Last Summer (1959)

The Model: Elizabeth Taylor at her sexiest. Beachside smouldering has never looked so effortless.

The Swimsuit:
A sleek white one-piece designed to show off Ms Taylor’s sensational figure.

Point Break (1991)

The Model: Woah dudes, its like, Keanu Reeves! Or something. Right? Dudes?

The Swimsuit: When Keanu pulls on that purple wetsuit, he forgets all about the job at hand and just focuses on the rush of big-wave riding. That’s some righteous shit right there.

Bring It On (2000)

The Model: Geek favourite Eliza Dushku, who manages to take a seemingly wholesome high-school movie and dirty it up a treat.

The Swimsuit:
A baby-blue bikini that puts Kirsten Dunst’s effort firmly in the shade.

The Sure Thing (1985)

The Model: Nicolette Sheridan, more recently seen as Wisteria Lane’s resident man-eater in Desperate Housewives .

The Swimsuit: A bikini so white you can see your reflection in it. The dictionary definition of pristine.

The Big Lebowski (1998)

The Model: It’s Tara Reid, back before she became a walking advert for tabloid newspapers. A memorable character for many reasons, not least her use of the line, “I’ll suck your cock for a thousand dollars.” Classy girl.

The Swimsuit: A lurid lime-green affair, the perfect attire for the discerning trailer-trash sunbather.

Blue Hawaii (1961)

The Model: Elvis Presley. Don’t step on his blue lycra shorts, uh-huh-huh! We’ll get our coats…

The Swimsuit: The perfect board-short - not so long as to impair one’s ability to swim, but long enough to keep everything safely tucked away.

Disturbia (2007)

The Model: Sarah Roemer gets a young Shia Lebeouf hot under the collar by parading around her garden in a tiny little bikini. The tease!

The Swimsuit: One of several she wears in the film, this bewitching orange number is enough to get Shia reaching for the binoculars.
