My Awkward Sexual Adventure!

August 19, 2012 by Ruth Atkinson 2 Comments

Just found out that a film I consulted on, My Awkward  Sexual Adventure, is getting its world premiere at the prestigious Toronto International Film Festival! I couldn’t be happier for screenwriter Jonas Chernik and director Sean Garrity! Check it out if you’re going to be in Toronto on September 11th.

“A hyper-repressed and schlubby accountant (Jonas Chernick) strikes a deal with a worldly but disorganized stripper (Emily Hampshire): he’ll help her with her crushing debt if she helps him become a better lover. Sharp direction by the versatile Sean Garrity and a very funny script by Chernick ensure for an uproarious — and surprisingly educational — sex comedy.”

    Thanks for the kind words! I don’t know the novel but will check it out. Don’t hesitate to touch base if you’d like to talk further about your script.

    Your site is nice. I may contact you in the future on a script. This movie sounds funny. It reminds me of the novel, Seducing Cinderella. Both have similar plots about exchanging knowledge one has for learning the art of seduction. Interesting.
