There are plenty of movies about young lads trying to get their horrible little rocks off, and it usually involves penises being put in places they were never meant to go—holes in walls, apple pies, etc. Brandon (Michael Fassbender) has the opposite problem—he's having far too much sex, compulsively, joylessly—but when his porcelain-fragile sister Sissy (Carey Mulligan) arrives to crash at his house, it becomes clear that making merry with baked desserts might have been a good option for him. Steve McQueen's blistering follow-up to Hunger is dominated by a crackling tension between Mulligan and Fassbender: where she is unguarded and needy, he writhes with a self-loathing that is only just concealed by a veneer of success and charm. Shot with an operatic kind of spareness and set to a brilliant Harry Escott score, this an intense and unflinching portrayal of damaged lives and unchecked impulses. Teenagers everywhere take heed: there are worse things to be than a virgin.

Want to see!

So glad you lost the mustache, though. ;)
