Today we discuss The Sessions, a 2012 dramedy about a poet with polio who navigates the world in a ridiculous recumbent bed. Oh and also he hires a sex surrogate to conquer his body image issues and lose his virginity. During our review we address the nuances of disabled personal hygiene, the absurdity of cripple camps, and the deceptively harmful implications of the "dead cripple" trope.
