The Sessions

OSCAR NOMINEE, BEST SUPPORTING ACTRESS

A man (John Hawkes, Winter’s Bone) who is confined to an iron lung decides — at age 38 — that he wants to lose his virginity, and hires a sex surrogate (Helen Hunt, As Good As It Gets) to help him, in what “might just be the most poignant, moving film ever made about one man’s surprisingly noble efforts to get laid.” (AV Club)
