I was so moved by new film The Sessions, written and directed by Ben Lewin, that I felt compelled to share its brilliance. Admittedly the story, about a severely disabled man, a virgin hiring a ‘sex surrogate’, did not appeal to me. In fact if I had not borrowed a BAFTA screener from my boss I would not have paid to see it at the cinema. And what a loss for me that would have been.
‘Where am I?’ I wake up with a start surrounded by bright, unnatural light. ‘It’s OK, calm down, relax. You’re in the hospital, St Mary’s Paddington.’ A nurse grimaces at my total confusion.
‘What the hell happened?’ I start to whimper, noticing some dried splatters of blood on the floor.
‘You were mugged. But you’re going to be fine.’ She nods kindly and then rushes off.
