| About.comMarcy Dermansky"The Einstein of Sex" has the look of a poorly made television drama, but don't let that distract you. Praunheim tells an important story and he tells it well. |

It even had a Nietzsche quote, I don't remember it exactly but it was along the lines of how humans sometimes should just succumb to their feelings because feelings are natural and it is what makes us human. |
