	Movies - Love Potion No. 9

Love Potion No. 9 is a 1992 movie starring Sandra Bullock and Tate Donovan. It's about a special elixir than enables a person to make people fall in love with them by simply talking.

The film gives a pseudoscientific explanation as to how the potion "works", it's explained:

:When swallowed it affects the vocal cords directly so that when you speak microtremors encoded within your voice stimulate tiny little hairs in the inner ear of the opposite sex. The hair vibrates, sending a signal along a nerve to the brain, which in turn produces a combination of mood-altering, endogenous chemicals responsible for the biochemical process of feeling in love. It makes members of the same sex hostile. It only works for four hours at a time.

Trivia

Despite the scientific explanation used in the film, there is no scientific basis for the existence of voice microtremors.
