Kant Finds Similar Ideas In Kinsey

While the movie "Kinsey" does not follow my exact thought pattern, it holds similar theories that enable myself to appreciate it on some level. Over time, ProK felt his purpose was to explore the nature of sex and allow the masses to become educated. Universally beautiful women and men were a common occurrence, which follows what I mention in the The Second Movement when aesthetic judgements are universal. There is also the common topic of the sublime. While what I believe to be the sublime, such as violent storms or buildings of grandeur, the sublime in "Kinsey" would be the experience of an orgasm, one of the initial things the led ProK into his work. I do wish that there was more of a soul to the art, which would have made the movie more enjoyable, but altogether I feel that "Kinsey" was a decent piece of work.
