Fire is a romantic element, symbolic of love and sexual desire. Hence characters are frequently portrayed as getting intimate around fireplaces or candle lights. In the Victorian language of flowers, red camellias mean "you are a flame in my heart." When a passionate relationship ends, they say "the fire's gone out" and the ex- becomes an "old flame." When love goes unrequited, they say the unrequited is "still carrying the torch for them." Love at First Sight or a sudden re-"kindling" can be described as "sparks flying."Â Many songs use this. This is why many dance scenes involve dancing around bonfires because of its romantic, intimate atmosphere and vibe. Even heat-related objects like "hot coffee" and "cigarettes" can make the passion burning. Contrast with Snow Means Love and Electric Love. Can overlap with Sexy Discretion Shot when the fireplace is what the camera pans away to when the couple get hot and heavy. Compare Fire of Comfort which deals with the notion of comfort/domesticity/home. For more fire motifs, see Fanatical Fire and Burning with Anger. Completely unrelated to Flirting Under Fire, unless bombs, napalm, or flamethrowers are included to "ignite" the romance. See also Romantic Candlelit Dinner and Fireworks of Love. Sister Trope to Fiery Sensuality. |

In The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Judge Claude Frollo's Villain Song compares his "burning desire" for Esmeralda as "Hellfire in [his] skin". He sings in front of a huge fireplace, sees a fiery version of Esmeralda in there and ends his musical number with flame-like shadows surrounding the scenery. | |

In The Divine Comedy, fire is often associated with the love of God towards its creation. On the other hand, many of the types of ironic punishment described in the first part don't include fire, but darkness and even ice on the lowest circle. Satan himself is stuck on the ice of Giudecca as punishment for having rebelled against God. | |

Parodied in Top Secret!, when Nick and Hillary first fall in love. As they begin kissing, the camera pans over to a romantic fireplace. They roll over in their embrace, in front of the fireplace... and the camera pans to where another fireplace is burning. They roll over again, in front of that fireplace, and the camera pans to yet another fireplace. Later, they share a tender kiss while parachuting. The camera pans away from them... to show a fireplace also suspended by parachute. |

Interview with the Vampire (2022): In "In Throes of Increasing Wonder...", Lestat's living room is partly lit by a fireplace and candles, and their flickering glow illuminate Louis and Lestat's naked bodies as they make love for the first time. The flames heighten the romance and eroticism inherent in Lestat's seduction of Louis, who wishes to keep his new lover warm in more ways than one: emotionally (he wants Louis to feel loved), physically (Lestat wishes to provide Louis a beautiful hearth and home where they can live together), and sexually (he wants Louis to feel desired). | |
