I really enjoyed this movie. (Jaimee enjoyed it too, but it made her a little depressed. I get that.) I wasn't expecting to like it as much as I did, because I expected it to be either a hagiography or a hatchet-job -- but it was neither. Or maybe it was both. Kinsey did important work and he was a Great American, etc., but aspects of his methodology were plainly and obviously terrible, and the movie does a great job of detailing that.

It also does a fantastic job of peering into the postmodern ethical abyss Kinsey helped usher in. "Okay, nothing is prohibited, everything is permitted. But surely not everything. Not [x], not [y]." It doesn't give us an answer, but how could it? There is no answer.

Definitely worth your time.

I'm surprised this movie got so little Oscar love. It was at least as good as Sideways, which was better than Ray, which was better than Best Picture winner Million Dollar Baby.
