Shame

CriticsCritics: 76
AudienceAudience: 7.1

A successful New York man hides a compulsive sex addiction behind an outwardly ordinary life. When his younger sister moves into his apartment, painful shared memories and the disruption of his routine push him toward an emotional crisis.

My take

You’ll appreciate this if you enjoy bleak, intimate character studies such as Hunger, but it is Not for you if explicit sexuality, slow pacing, and emotionally heavy stories are off-putting.

Ask me more about it
