Kinsey - 2004

Cast: Liam Neeson, Larua Linney, Peter Sarsgaard, Chris O'Donnell, Timothy Hutton, John Lithgow and Oliver Platt

Direction: Bill Condon

Synopsis: This movie is about Dr. Alfred Kinsey, a man who, almost, single-handedly led to the introduction of sex education in the academic curriculum in most parts of the world today. The story is set in the early 1900's, in a world filled with extreme sexual hypocrisy, where Dr. Kinsey does a sample study of the population of the United States and in this process opens our eyes to the whole wide range of biologically determined sexual attractions that has left us with redefining the word 'normal'. Please watch it without your own preconcieved notions about sexuality.

Summary: Strongly recommended
