  3. 'The Sessions' tells tale of the virgin's diary ★★★ 1/2

    In 1990 the writer Mark O'Brien contributed an article for the literary magazine The Sun called "On Seeing a Sex Surrogate." A survivor of childhood polio, the substantially disabled O'Brien spent much of his sleeping and waking hours confined to an iron lung.

"Being disabled myself, but also being a virgin, I envied these people ferociously," he wrote in the 1990 piece.
