Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex * But Were Afraid to Ask
Woody Allen's fourth film, consisting of a series of short comedy sequences loosely inspired by Dr. David Reuben's book of the same name.
The segments range from "Do Aphrodisiacs Work?" in which a court jester gives an aphrodisiac to the Queen and is, in the end, beheaded to "What Happens During Ejaculation?" in which we watch 'control central' during a successful seduction.

It may not consistently stay the distance, but the sublimely funny moments make up for an awful lot of misfires.
