Just follow this:
When you catch a girl glancing at you, she wants you to look back and smile.
When a girl bumps into your arm, while walking with you she wants you to hold her hand.
When she wants a hug she will just stand there.

Holding hands... well you can't really go THAT wrong here, people shake hands all the time so its not exactly a "private area". Be assertive, just take her hand when you feel that she's shown enough interest in you to suggest she's keen on being more than friends.
Personally, here's what I like to do at movies... You know the old "pretend yawn, outstretched arms and then resting your arm around her shoulder move"? Its SOOO cliche that when you do it whilst grinning at her and making the movement so obvious and exaggerated it can be quite funny- and takes the tension out of making a move when you make it more playful. If she says "Oh no you don't" and pushes your arm off, just joke it off and don't take it too seriously. "Ohh.... REJECTED... was I not smooth enough? Just so you know, I am kinda tired, I may be yawning for the whole movie..."
But yeh, you'll know if she's serious about you not doing anything if she doesn't find it funny the first time or looks uncomfortable. You don't tell a joke once, get no laughs and then expect to get laughs the second or third time you tell the same person. Same thing applies here.
Just be playful but respectful, lead but don't force, be confident but not arrogant and most importantly- HAVE FUN!! :)
