Eight years ago tomorrow, the United Nations General Assembly officially dedicated March 22 as World Water Day, a 24-hour span designated for all countries to focus on bettering their respective water resources.

Frat guys who seek out wet t-shirt contests can no doubt agree. Over the years, filmmakers have acknowledged water’s universal power, finding new and clever ways to douse some of the industry’s hottest actresses for both dramatic and erotic effects.
