This is the first time in weeks you’ve needed a hint!
The theme was TV/movie crossover stars.

Apollo 13 (the crossover star is Gary Sinese who is on one of those CSI shows)
Solved by Trevor J (comment #12).
4. Production of this movie hit the gossip columns when the single male star and the married female star had an on-set affair. As a result, a sex scene between the two was cut and has never seen the light of day. Instead, the male star (who plays a single character) and the female star (who plays a married character) have one passionate kiss at the end, before she is reunited with her husband. In real life, the actress’s marriage did not fare as well.

Oh, I didn’t know that about “Proof of Life.” That’s weird. I thought that the denial of a sex scene made the story work as well as the movie possibly could.
Wish I had played this week! I knew 2, 3, 5, and 6! 🙂
I thought the movie worked better without the sex, too.
