The Sessions (2012)
Directed by Ben Lewin
this film based on real events stars John Hawkes, Helen Hunt, William
H. Macy and Moon Bloodgood. A man paralyzed from the neck down due to
polio seeks the services of a sex surrogate to lose his virginity.
Largely this film
handles it's subject matter with respect and good humour, being more
funny than you would expect. In general the plot is pretty light
hearted and of a feel good nature, the story really lacks any counter
points of view to make this a more rounded film. There are good
performances from Hawkes and Hunt which help carry the film.
3/5
