7 Movie Moments To Cool You Down

Frosty scenes to soothe the soaring climate

Ice Cube Foreplay

The Film: Do The Right Thing (1989)

The Cold Moment: It’s summer in Noo Yawk. It’s muggy, close and unbearably hot – a situation with which, strangely enough, we completely sympathise.

Mookie (Spike Lee), in his infinite wisdom, is after a bit of a rug shuffle with the smoking hot Tina (Rosie Perez), who wants none of what he’s offering.

In the greatest stroke of genius since the walk-in freezer, Mookie relieves Tina of her stuffy, restrictive clothing, and make a quick trip to the freezer.

Returning with two trays of ice, he tells a protesting Tina to lie down on the bed, before slowly tracing melting ice-cubes over every inch of her sizzling flesh.

The ice melts almost instantly on contact, the cold, cold water spreading its sweet, sweet relief as Mookie moves it across here forhead, arms, legs, and finally nipples.

By the time he’s finished, Tina has not only stopped complaining, but she’s hotter for Mookie than a Noo Yawk summer – and we’ve never wanted an ice tray on hand more.

Damn Spike Lee. He isn’t just teasing Tina in that scene, oh no, he’s teasing us.

How To Recreate It: Take a cooler filled with ice cubes on your next tube journey.

When it gets a little hot for comfort, simply break out a cube and go to work on your nipples.

Be prepared for funny looks from the rest of the passengers... though it may just be envy.
