A Quick Tip by woopak_the_thrill

Following up his intensely realistic drama “Hunger”, director Steve McQueen follows it up with a second collaboration with actor Michael Fassbender called “Shame”.

McQueen handles this film’s concept quite well and he seemed to have done his homework on his premise. Fassbender makes a very convincing, bold and daring portrayal of an office guy named Brandon, struggling with his sex addiction. Carey Mulligan is just as good lending him support playing his character’s sister, Sissy.

The film is an effective study of the disorder of sex addiction. How it affects one’s own life and how it can even affect others. The direction wasn’t afraid to go into the dark corners of this disorder as well as other areas that can make it even worst.

This is a well directed film that astounds with its performances as well as the depths of its script. “Shame” is something to see. Just make sure the kids are in asleep or not at home. It has earned its NC-17 rating.
