Bliss (1997)

Maybe not the greatest movie but certainly not the worst and not as bad as most critics said it was when released. Sheryl Lee and Craig Sheffer star. Bliss is the male attempt to show that some men DO love and think about their "other-halves" needs…in addition to sex. Lee takes the background (although her character's story is key to the entire movie) and yes the movie is slightly sexist about "pleasing a woman" but it's one of the most creative efforts to try and process the male libido as a plot device on film. Sadly, only a few got it. Women, men actually do listen and emit more feelings than previously believed.
