Overview
Brandon, a thirty-something man living in New York, eludes intimacy with women but feeds his deepest desires with a compulsive addiction to sex.

Viewing Notes
Steve McQueen (HUNGER) teams with Fassbender again for a devastating tale of a sex addict. While not as good as HUNGER, this is still a great film anchored by wonderful performances by Fassbender and Mulligan. My favorite scene involves a waiter who seems to be waiting on a table solo for the first time.
