Mark O’Brien is an accomplished man his late 30’s. A Berkley Graduate, a writer and poet, and
completely immobile from his neck down.
With his faculties intact and a sharp offbeat sense of humor he sets out
not only to write an article about sex amongst the physically challenged, but
to finally experience it for himself.
Ben Lewin wrote and directed this film who was inspired as a
person with his own physical challenges,
though his own limitations weren’t as severe as his protagonist in this film.
Starring John
Hawkes, Helen
Hunt and William
H. Macy given a tough topic, this film manages to entertain, inspire and
make me laugh out loud straight from the gut.
A must see for an Indie filmgoer or at the very least the film to mark
down in your Netflix Queue.
Helen Hunt is fearless, daring and a shoe in for a
nomination of either a Golden Globe or
Oscar variety.
