Jason Reitman’s new romantic drama, Labor Day, which hits theaters this Friday, has so far mostly received lukewarm reviews. But one notable scene, in which Josh Brolin, who plays an escaped convict, makes a peach pie with Kate Winslet, has been getting lots of attention. “It’s the sexiest pie scene ever in a movie,” Joyce Maynard, who wrote the novel on which the movie is based, told the Boston Globe. She may very well be right. Until the movie comes out and you decide for yourself, though, here’s a list of contenders. To make it a little kinkier, included are some scenes that might appeal to the fetishistic among us. Sexy, after all, is subjective.

SWEENEY TODD
Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter together in the same room? It’s bound to be at least kind of sexy, even under these dark circumstances.

AMERICAN PIE
We’re going for a very loose definition of sexy, as you can see.

THE HELP
It’s not two girls one cup, but the very kinky kind will most likely appreciate this one.

STAND BY ME
This is, of course, the ne plus ultra of all pie scenes ever—sexy or not.
