The terrible foreplay experience as a boy discouraged Andy from sex, love, women and even interpersonal relationships. At the age of 40, he is still an innocent virgin with a two-pointer at home. He doesn't feel so distressed because of being alone. Video games, figures, and jukeboxes fill his spare time. Until a slip of the mouth at a unit party revealed the secrets of his virgin body, male colleagues laughed at him, and at the same time arrogantly acted for him...
The film reminded me of a description in the novel "The Adventures of Bronfman's Breaking Alone", "He wants to know, or he is worried, whether the problem between him and the woman, the man, and the life itself is in the final analysis. The penis is as expected. It's not just a question of size or shape, really, it's a certain spirit-its personality, its sense of existence."
It seems that compared to women, men are obsessed with the connection between sex and ability, dignity, and status. This also makes "sex" a hidden pain for men in the relationship between the sexes and even self-recognition.
After experiencing all kinds of bizarre and unreliable dating experiences, Andy's forty years of lonely life was pried open by a charming woman, Tracy. The beautiful appointment will bring their souls closer and closer, but the love is deep. At that time, the secret sadness of Andy's boyhood made him push Tracy away with hurtful excuses. After the pain passed, Andy confided to Tracy the secret of his virgin body and the anxiety of facing intimacy.
In the end, lovers finally get married. Andy finally completed the journey of life from boy to man, not only realizing break-up and getting out of order, but also completing a journey of finding, growing and repairing himself. After all, the bravest adventure in this world is the self-discovery that leads to the soul.
