Sex Addiction And The Shame DVD

By Raymond Campbell


When it comes to talking about sex addiction, it can often be a difficult topic. While this is the case, the Shame DVD can often help introduce the topic in a non-threatening way. Still, it is often good to be cautious before suggesting someone is suffering from sex addiction.

When it comes to the movie, Shame highlights a well known business man with a sex addiction. In the first 10 to 20 minutes, the film introduces the character, mostly through facial expressions. Then, once the man's sister comes to visit for an extended stay, life becomes more difficult.

In fact, most of the film uses facial expressions to relate these issues rather than dialogue or intense language. Whereas, other aspects such as great editing and cinematography also a play a part in telling the story. While this is the case, there have been a number of reviews in which the film has been slammed for the lack of dialogue and discussion.

Most critics and others whom provided bad reviews are also the ones whom labeled the film as the worse of 2011. For, while being the second film directed by Steve McQueen, many believe the film falls short of the first. The first being Hunger, a story which focuses on an Irish character who goes on a hunger strike in 1981. When looking for this film online, or in stores, it is important to not get it mixed up with The Hunger, for these are two distinct and different movies.

Once the man's sister comes and stays at the character's home on an indefinite basis, there are sudden interruptions to the addiction which has been effecting the man for years. As such, when the lifestyle of the sister begins to interfere, the addict has to take drastic measures to meet the insatiable desires associated with this type of addiction.

While engaging with others in social activity, the man is fine and can socialize without issue. At the same time, when left alone, there is often nothing more important than masturbation and orgasm. In the process, the character often looks at online pornographic websites, calls talk lines and looks at nude pictorials in magazines.

When at work, the character often drifts off daydreaming about co-workers or others from various pornographic websites. As a result, the addiction becomes an issue which is less than private. For, by viewing these sites online at work, and the sister overhearing phone calls at home, the addiction eventually becomes clear to others.

For the most part, the audience knows from the beginning of the film that the character loves sex. For, the opening scene shows the man naked, covered with sheets and breathing at a rapid rate. While the goal may have been to make the character look like a long day was ahead, it is more than likely the intent was to suggest the end to a hot and heavy round of masturbation.

For, like a junkie in need of a fix, it becomes clear that if the character does not have needs met in this area, life often becomes difficult. For example, having a sister move in and take away privacy. Whereas, not getting work done at the office because of daydreams and fantasies often interferes in more ways than one throughout the course of the film.
